On the Pre Worboys page hardly any of the links at the bottom of the page work.

Can you be a bit more specific? What exactly did you try to click on and what did you expect to see?

The flickr sites have both moved, the fotopic site comes up with a 404 and Bryn's site has been down for ages.

Ah right - I thought you meant the Pre Worboys gallery page. That suddenly makes more sense. D'oh.

LMARS is definitely dead and offline. As for the other links, I think it might be worth asking DavidNW9 and DavidBrown, who I think are the main contributors to that page, and to Pre Worboys signs in general

What do people think about what they see in the routebox on A449 Sandbox? The roads numbered x panel doesn't show if its the only road with that number.


Given the long silence on this, I presume its OK? I'll make it live on the default routebox tonight.

Sorry Jeni - I thought I'd said "yes!"

Can someone tell me why the 2010 AGM was held in its usual place? This implies the event was in the past.

Because Ritchie shortened it significantly, from 10 seconds to –30 days. :P

No one called me about the dodgy links! I've just edited two colons (although I'm not surgically qualified it went well) in the pre-Worboys links and the links now work except the motorway site which appears members only when connected. I also realised I'd missed out half my links which are now added.

Is it possible to get a list of items that appear in more than one category?

I'd like to get an automated list of items in Category:Wolverhampton sorted by their "star" rating so I don't have to keep remembering which ones I've done decent amounts of work on...

It's something that I can see being useful elsewhere, all one-star bridges for example.

Steven, I'll add this as a feature request to the workload.

If you need it for any other category, just copy and paste the code into another sub-page of your user space and edit all instances of "Wolverhampton" with the name of the category you want!

I've tried copying and pasting, then adjusting but obviously the Authority/County don't auto generate categories. (or maybe I'm just being thick).
Thanks!!

The only way to do it (at the moment) is to manually add them to categories, of which the majority of Primary Destinations already exist, even if they are hidden. It's how the navboxes work.

A small bug spotted on the Trent Crossings box that appears at the bottom of each page - you will see what I mean if you go to this page: Haxey Gate Bridge

It does this on all the Trent bridges, but is OK on the Crossings by Location page. It's probably me that's broken it, but I'm not sure how, or how to fix it... sorry :(

Putting {{Navbox|cat=Crossings of the River Trent}} generates an automatic category template, containing all the pages in that category and with the error that appears in all automatically generated templates like that.

Putting {{Navbox|cat=Crossings of the River Trent, Derwent and other Tributaries}} uses Template:Crossings of the River Trent, Derwent and other Tributaries, which is the one without any problems, as it is a regular template rather than a automatically generated one.

You have to get the |cat=template name}} bit exactly right, or if there's no template it scans it as |cat=category name}} and produces an automatically generated one.

Ah OK, I think because of the long name it was generally redirected from cat=Crossings of the River Trent. I'm updating a few of the bridges anyway, so if I see any with an error, I'll change it. Unless there's something automated that can be done?
