All editnotices

After Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2026_January_13#Category:Pages_with_unclassified_custom_editnotice following the previous section, I had an idea of creating a tracking category, attached directly to Template:Editnotice, that tracks all editnotices. That is, Category:All pages with editnotices. Most other maintenance tracking categories have one. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 03:57, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Editnotices don't need to use {{editnotice}}. Also, naming a category "All pages with editnotices" would be misleading, because you would be putting the editnotices themselves into the cat, and not the pages using them. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:57, 3 February 2026 (UTC)

Wouldn't that warrant renaming all subcategories of Category:Pages with editnotices? –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 01:24, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

With no further response, I have opened Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2026_March_22#Category:Pages_with_editnotices. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 20:15, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

NOTCENSORED-like editnotices

Two edit notices, {{Sex editnotice}} and {{Non-sexual nudity editnotice}} (although no pages seem to have been added to the later in many years), are very similar to each other, and are both covered on corresponding talk pages by {{Censor}} (also used for violence/graphic imagery and some political topics). There are also many pages using that talk template that do not have either of the two editnotices. Xeroctic (talk) 16:09, 15 April 2026 (UTC)

@Xeroctic: Go to WP:TFD. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 21:36, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

I have started a discussion at Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2026 May 5#Template:Sex editnotice. Xeroctic (talk) 11:59, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

Own user talk editnotice creation

Did something change about Other users generally don't see them at all, except on their own user and user talk basepage, where they only see the red "Page notice" link, since they can create and edit such notices. recently? I was looking at my own user talk (not a template editor or a page mover) and it's not visible by default for me. It shows up as a [div class="editnotice-link editnotice-redlink sysop-show templateeditor-show extendedmover-show" ...] for me in the local HTML, and I can make them visible if I add, say, extendedconfirmed-show. I don't believe I have any custom css that would be hiding it, either.

If I follow the link nothing seems to have changed about my ability to create it if desired, at least. ScalarFactor (talk) 04:53, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

Perhaps it never actually worked, but yeah it doesn't work now. It is supposed to work by using {{REVISIONUSER}} to be the username of the person editing, but in an editnotice (while editing) that "{{REVISIONUSER}}" just parses as "" (empty). The code for that is currently in Template:Editnotice load/content and was added to the parent template on 14 January 2010. ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 12:52, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

Background but not text color collides with dark mode

I noticed this with Template:Editnotices/Page/Comparison of accounting software on Comparison of accounting software. It uses dark mode's text when you go to edit and it's entirely illegible. Not sure if there's a way to get a list and then set a text color for them or what. Jerod Lycett (talk) 03:19, 10 July 2026 (UTC)

Should now be  fixed. ~ Jenson (SilverLocust 💬) 04:37, 10 July 2026 (UTC)
