Template-protected edit request on 29 April 2019 edit

Please replace

| text  = {{#ifeq: {{{1|no}}} | small || {{Template:AfDs/core}}}}

with just

| text  = {{Template:AfDs/core}}

Currently, using the syntax {{AfDs|small}} results in a blank bar with a link to the centralized discussion page, which isn't helpful and contains no text. None of the current transclusions of than the /testcases actually does this, but it is an unneeded "feature" that results in an extra parser function and parameter call every time this template is called for no apparent reason. Accordingly, I'm asking that the feature be removed. Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 06:04, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@DannyS712: Is there any need for the /core subtemplate? I've substituted it on Template:AfDs/sandbox — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:48, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@MSGJ: Not sure, since it appears to have no other uses. I'll point out, however, that it is currently unprotected, so if you don't substitute it I would suggest protecting it. --DannyS712 (talk) 14:18, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Done, /core substituted — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 14:26, 29 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
