Usage in draftspace?
editI see many drafts with this template on it, but since the wording only says "article" and not draft, should we make it so that the word "article" changes to "draft" if it's in the draftspace? Millows! | 🪧 15:35, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

Change {{{1|article}}}
to {{{1|NAMESPACE}}}
for ease of use on drafts. Mach61 (talk) 02:19, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
- Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. I don't think the suggested code change would work. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:46, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
Template pages tagged are not added to categories
editA template like Template:Owen family tree is tagged as unreferenced, but the page is not added to any category. Can this be fixed? I looked around but couldn't see where its stopping template pages. Gonnym (talk) 17:45, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- This is by design. Template:Unreferenced is built around Template:Ambox, which only categorses for pages in mainspace. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:21, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- So the only solution is create an exact duplicate for the sole purpose of having it work with templates, which hold content in mainspace? Gonnym (talk) 07:01, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
