Not inheriting classification
[edit]So I noticed because of this edit that {{WikiProject Video games}} doesn't inherit the classification entered in {{WPBS}}, and categorizes it as unclassified. The change was implemented and some banners do inherit it, but not this one. Is this a bug in the meta banner or in our template? SWinxy (talk) 00:47, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
- Late response: it's on purpose, because we don't have A-class but WPBS does. --PresN 01:13, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

- @Aomaf: Please do not paste code blobs into template talk pages, especially not when
{{textDiff}}is used. They are difficult to follow and impossible to test. Much better methods exist, therefore,
Not done: please make your requested changes to the template's sandbox first; see WP:TESTCASES. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 07:40, 4 September 2025 (UTC)

Give the Indie parameter the alias indie so I don't have to capitalize the letter I when I want to use this parameter. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 17:04, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
- For some reason, when this template is transcluded into its testcases page, it only shows how the template looks at its own page instead of how it would look on a talk page. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 17:30, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
Completed – please update the documentation as needed. P.I. Ellsworth , ed. – welcome! – 18:08, 17 June 2026 (UTC)
