::The infobox which [[Template:Wiki]] generates uses a number of structured data fields - [[:Category:Wiki License|Wiki license]] is one of them.  That means that anything other than the correct entries will fail the structured data.  All of the 'redirect' license categories will fail this structured data.  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • _{[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]} • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 09:30, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

::You have done some truely amazing and constructive work here on WikiIndex, and I doff my cap to you for that.  But - and please don't take this the wrong way - you've also made a few mistakes on here, which at least one other editor here has advised you of.  Again, I'm genuinely impressed by your energy and enthusiasm here - but sometimes you just need to take your foot off the gas pedal and try to look at the 'bigger picture' on some of your edits (especially when reverting 'good faith' edits of others). :-)))))  Best and warmest regards  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • _{[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]} • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 09:30, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

::::I just answered [[Template talk:Wiki#About parameter problem]].  I really don't think it's worth making a bot to search for About urls - firstly, it will only work with MediaWiki (and many MediaWiki about urls either don't exist, or have been spammed/deleted, etc), and wont work with any other wiki engine.  We don't want to display an About link for a page which was previously spam and then deleted.  And yes (as well as another).  Best  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • _{[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]} • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 10:36, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

:Is not me. See also http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Template:Wiki&diff=next&oldid=162194 (text replace made you you) & http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Template:Wiki&diff=39109&oldid=39049 etc.

::Huh - where did I state those two diffs had anything to do with your edits?  I didn't - so I'd kindly appreciate no mud slinging there please.  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • _{[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]} • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 15:35, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

::If you compare this [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Template%3AWiki&diff=173248&oldid=169477 diff] - which shows the last stable revision from mid-May 2013 (before you had editing permissions on the template) to your last edit on 30 October 2013 - then apart from your constructive edits tidying up duplication, you needlessly first added a missing category switch to virtually every field, you then changed that to force create utterly needless semantic properties for those same fields.  As I've previously stated, it is utterly POINTLESS trying to force articles here on WikiIndex into 'maintenance' categories (and even more pointless making a semantic property for a 'non-entity') for the many thousands of wikis which will never have say a WikiNode, or an about url, or a page count or wikiFactor.  [[User:Hoof Hearted|Sean, aka <small>Hoof Hearted</small>]] • _{[[:Category:Active administrators of this wiki|Admin]] / [[WikiIndex:Bureaucrats|'Crat]]} • <small>[[User talk:Hoof Hearted|talk2HH]]</small> 15:35, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
