Description Alex Legler (RETIRED) archtester gentoo-dev Security 2016-10-07 05:56:56 UTC
We are aware of an issue that will cause parameters in our Handbook (architecture names, kernel package names and versions, partition names) to not display properly.

We're working on a fix in an upcoming Wiki software platform.

I believe this morning I have finished updating all pages in the Handbook: namespace making use of the SMW calls. They now use the {{Handbook Variable}} template (as discussed in IRC) for indirect calls. I also protected Handbook Variable template so that only wiki Admins can edit it.

I'll continue to hunt down any more instances of direct SMW calls as time allows over the next few days and report in when I've finished.

After an extensive search, all references to inline #show have been migrated. There are still many out-of-date translations that have the old syntax, but they'll disappear once they've been updated to the newest base.

Do we need to do anything special other SMW calls, or was this exclusive the the inline queries?
