Is this template too complicated?
Hi,
Is this template too complicated? For instant, what is the function of the parameter "freeform" (idem for "debug") ?
The following code would be easier (limiting itself to the parameter ticket, id, or 1), wouldn't it ?
{| class="messagebox" style="width: 100%;" |- | width="70" | [[Image:OTRS Wikimedia.svg|70px]] | The permission for use of this work has been archived in [[Commons:OTRS|the Wikimedia OTRS system]]; it is available <span class="plainlinksneverexpand">{{ #if: {{{ticket|}}}| '''[{{{ticket}}} here]'''{{{category|[[Category:Items with OTRS permission confirmed]]}}} |{{ #if: {{{id|}}}|as '''[[otrs:{{{id}}}|ticket {{{id}}}]]'''{{{category|[[Category:Items with OTRS permission confirmed]]}}} |{{ #if: {{{1|}}}|[[otrs:{{{1}}}|ticket {{{1}}}]] | <span style="color: red; font-weight: bold; font-style: italic"><template error: no id or ticket is specified></span>{{{category|[[Category:Items missing OTRS ticket ID]]}}} }} }} }}</span> for users with an OTRS account.

- Yes, it is too complicated. Unfortunately this is I think because different wikis use different parameters for this and the template tries to support them all. I have no idea what the freeform thing is. I'll check how this template is used and see whether I can simplify it. -- Bryan (talk to me) 19:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
Template:ConfirmationOTRS
Is there anything stopping a bot from converting the image pages now using the deprecated {{ConfirmationOTRS}} to use {{PermissionOTRS}} instead? /Lokal_Profil 01:12, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Add a tickmark to the template
I was confused recently by this template. I thought it meant that somebody had only submitted an ticket, not that it had also been confirmed. The reintroduction of a green checkmark icon of some kind would make things far clearer, as would a change in wording/emphasis of "archived"; perhaps replacing it with "verified and archived". --Tom Edwards (talk) 11:31, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's a very good point to replace "archived" in "verified and archived". For the icon, I don't think a checkmark icon is clearer than the OTRS logo. And this logo is very useful to identify an OTRS permission on first glance.--Bapti ✉ 15:24, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. Perhaps I'm nitpicking here, but it would be better to highlight only the words "verified and archived" (that way they stand out against the supporting text).
- Also, I wasn't very clear about what I had in mind for the image. See the replacement above-left. :-) --Tom Edwards (talk) 11:24, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- it would be better to highlight only the words "verified and archived"
- Yeah, maybe it's better to higligt only "verified and archived".
- For the picture, I see your point but i think it's quite dissapointed to strike the OTRS logo with a green checkmark. Perhaps, it would make more sens to have the checkmark on the left for exemple instead of over the logo.--Bapti ✉ 18:43, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- I think the current version is fine. No need to change the images. - Rjd0060 (talk) 18:47, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Link to people with an account
The template says "To confirm the permission, please contact someone with an OTRS account.".
I propose changing the link to Category:Commons OTRS volunteers for obvious reasons. Any reason not to? - Rjd0060 (talk) 19:10, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with this change especially as there is a link to m:OTRS/personnel on Category:Commons OTRS volunteers :)--Bapti ✉ 20:45, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- Without objection, motion carried. Cirt (talk) 16:14, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, hope there is no problem with that. I think it just makes sense to do it that way. - Rjd0060 (talk) 16:54, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
