User subpages for planned modification to Living Presidents of the United States, with the parenthesized parameters:

v.0

v.0

where the parameters (all but hours being numbered) are:

  • Office is P(President) or V(Vice President)
  • Number is the ordinal number of service in the office
  • Change is M(inus) or P(lus) or successor's number (for deaths in office), or empty (to suppress ± in Box)
  • Data is the type of data to be returned
    • p/m inaug/death date, yyyy-mm-dd format
    • P/M inaug/death EventType: D(eath) , A(ssination) , P1/PI(1st/only inauguration) , V1/VI(1st/only VP inauguration) , VC(VP Conformation)
    • C color, e.g. "fbb4ae", to fill boxes
    • n formatted number, e.g., "{{0|0}}9" or "10"
    • N name of officeholder
  • hours is a named parameter which takes on a single value 5+1⁄2, the time between the deaths on July 4, 1826

Here's my plan to convert the structure of these templates. Except for the one group of changes marked "MUST BE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY", stopping at any bullet or sub-bullet will leave the output of the top-level templates unchanged. They should be done in the order listed.

  •  Done Preliminary work
    • checkY Create all VP inauguration pages as redirects to running mate's inauguration
    • checkY Build 2nd list of templates with to-be list of parameters
  •  Done Convert templates to optionally consume named parameters
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ / Lookup✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} → {{{Number|{{{1|}}}}}}
      • {{{3|}}} → {{{Office|{{{3|}}}}}}
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{Change|{{{2|}}}}}}
    • Lookup✓ :
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{Data|{{{2|}}}}}}
    • Row✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} → {{{Office|{{{1|}}}}}}
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{BgnNbr|{{{2|}}}}}}
      • {{{3|}}} → {{{BgnChg|{{{3|}}}}}}
      • {{{4|}}} → {{{EndNbr|{{{4|}}}}}}
      • {{{5|}}} → {{{EndChg|{{{5|}}}}}}
  •  Done Convert template calls to use named parameters:
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ calls to Lookup :
      • {{Lookup|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{Lookup|Number=aaa|Data=bbb|Office=ccc}}
    • Row calls to EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{EventDate|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{EventDate|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
      • {{EventLink|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{EventLink|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
      • {{{Box|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{Box|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
    • LivingPOTUS✓ / LivingVPOTUS✓ calls to Row:
      • {{Row|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee|...}} → {{Row|Office=aaa|BgnNbr=bbb|BgnChg=ccc|EndNbr=ddd|EndChg=eee||||||...}}
  •  Done Convert templates to consume only specific numbered parameter
    • Lookup✓ / EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} →
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{|1}}}
      • {{{3|}}} →
    • Row✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} →
      • {{{2|}}} →
      • {{{3|}}} →
      • {{{4|}}} →
      • {{{5|}}} →
  • Red XN Convert template calls to eliminate inherited params and use specified numbered params:
    This doesn't seem to work as I expected, so I'm not going to do it.
    • EventDate / EventLink / Box calls to Lookup :
      • |Number=XXX →
      • |Office=XXX →
      • |Data=XXX → XXX
    • Row calls to EventDate / EventLink / Box :
      • |Office=XXX →
  •  Done Renumber numbered parameters in Row
    • Multiple changes that MUST BE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY:
      • LivingPOTUS: |||||| → |
      • LivingVPOTUS: |||||| → |
      • Row: {{{6|}}}→{{{1|}}}; {{{7|}}}→{{{2|}}}; ... {{{14|}}}→{{{9}}}
  • Red XNMerge LivingVPOTUS into LivingPOTUS and convert former to call the latter
    This won't work, I think because it excedes the transclusion limit
  • Documentation
    • Decide on template-space names
    • Build 3rd list of templates with to-be template names
    • Build /doc subpage
  • Move to template space
    • Move Lookup
    • Change Lookup calls in EventDate / EventLink / Box
    • Move EventDate / EventLink / Box
    • Change EventDate / EventLink / Box calls in Row
    • Move Row
    • Change Row calls in LivingPOTUS / LivingVPOTUS
    • Move LivingPOTUS / LivingVPOTUS

v.8 - gradually implement in template space

General principles

  • Always call subtemplates with fully qualified template names
  • Parallel P/VP subtemplates completely separate except (maybe) Color, PlusMinus where VP can be a redirect to P
 Done: Create blank subtemplates
  • checkY V: Row, Event, Box, Name, Color, PlusMinus
  • checkY P: Row, Event, Box, Name, Color, PlusMinus
 Done: Create testcases for all subtemplates except Row, sandbox
  • V✓/P✓ all possible evt for PlusMinus, Event (actual cases)
  • V✓/P✓ multiple nbr (1,2,9,10,45,46,48,49) for Name, Box (includes Color)
 Done: Implement all subtemplates except Row, sandbox
  • V✓/P✓ PlusMinus - exact copy, parameter unnamed, slightly modified to work with null param
  • V✓/P✓ Color - exact copy
  • V✓/P✓ Name - modified subsets
  • V✓/P✓ Box - copy with namespace mods, parameter unnamed
  • V✓/P✓ Event - copy with namespace mods
 Done: Row & sandbox
  • V✗/P✗ Add side-by-side comparison and list of all boxes (later had to delete)
  • V✓/P✓ test cases for Row (from+to; 2*from+to; from+2*to; from+∅; hours)
  • V✓/P✓ implement Row - copy with namespace mods
  • V✓/P✓ implement sandbox - copy with namespace mods
Prepare for final implementation in template space
  •  Done Write doc page
  •  Done Compare size to current versions
    338451/402333 Current POTUS/VOTUS post-expand include size
    961493/1126936 Sandbox POTUS/VOTUS post-expand include size
  •  Done Research relative referencing and possibly implement. See Help:Link § Subpage links
  •  Done Convert to relative links
  •  Done Compare corresponding P- & V-pages: /Row /Event /PlusMinus /Box /Name /Color /sandbox /testcases
  •  Done Add sandbox subpages as copies: /Row, /Event, /PlusMinus, /Box, /Name, /Color
  •  Done Change sandbox to call templates relatively
    Red XN Relative sandbox failed to work when trying to promote it to template space
  •  Done Remove relative calls in top level sandbox
  •  Done Try promoting it again
    Red XN Got the same result as before, so I don't think the problem is the relative paths in the main template.
  •  Done Change back to using absolute paths in main sandbox and in all non-sandbox subtemplates
  •  Done Verify that this will display correctly if it is promoted to template
  •  Done Promote both sandboxes and view main-space page
    Red XN The VP template won't display, probably because template expansions are too large
     Done Revert to previous versions
  •  Done Compare sizes

    • 1003151+1168587 Sandbox post-expand include size Living POTUS+VOTUS post
  • See if there is a way to significantly reduce the size of the templates
  • Look at element stuff to see how DePiep has set up sandboxes with subtemplates
  • Figure out how to work sandbox - maybe separate sandbox for every subtemplate?
  • Seek input about implementation

where (...) indicates parameters; → indicates calls; ≠/≈/≅/≡ indicate increasing levels of comparability; and parameters are indicated by:

  • ymd: date of the event in yyyy-mm-dd format
  • nbr: ordinal number of service in the office, 1 for Pres Washington and VP Adams, etc
  • evt: event: i(nauguration), 1(st inauguration), c(onfirmation), d(eath), a(ssassination)
  • ymd1/nbr1/evt1 and ymd2/nbr2/evt2: the ymd/nbr/evt associated with the period start and end
  • e1a/e2a: event i/1 for the succession after a death (a/d) in office
  • hours takes on only one value 5+1⁄2, the time between the deaths on July 4, 1826
  • 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9: Ordinal numbers (nbr) of living officeholders during period as unnamed params
  • 1.<param> Unnamed parameter which takes on the domain of <param>
