Template:Wikipedia text

Hi John: thanks for the heads up regarding a bug. Could you give me an example of a page that is having the issue you describe so I can look? I'm only aware of one potential issue with this template, and that is that for pages with multi-word titles, it's important to use underscores instead of spaces. So, for example, instead of:

{{Wikipedia text|Supreme Court of the United States|Edition ID}}

type

{{Wikipedia text|Supreme_Court_of_the_United_States|Edition ID}}

Let me know if that helps. --Forgottenman (talk) 07:02, 9 April 2011 (MSD)

Yeah that took care of it. Interesting I missed that. I actually went back to the template page and noticed the underscores are there in the example...I would have sworn they weren't there before, but I can see the page hasn't been updated in months so I obviously just overlooked it. Thanks for the response. --John James 08:49, 9 April 2011 (MSD)

On Categories

Hallo John James, very nice work on all the newly created content pages! There is one thing, though, I am not so sure about - does it make sense to create so many new categories, most of which will stay empty for the foreseeable future? (See e.g. the categories on the Peter Schiff page.) Pestergaines 00:38, 12 April 2011 (MSD)
