  @TheSandDoctor, see these 50 contributions. If it's desirable to skip all uses in templates, that can be done. ― Qwerfjkltalk 14:10, 20 June 2022 (UTC)

  @Qwerfjkl: Thank you for this! Let's give this a couple days to see if anyone has any feedback. TheSandDoctor ^Talk 04:45, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

  For the table at the top, Trial complete. ― Qwerfjkltalk 22:05, 1 July 2022 (UTC)

 Approved. Under normal circumstances, I would prefer to leave the close for someone else. However, given the backlog, lack of recent BAG activity (myself included), and the fact that this task is uncontroversial and based on how well the trial went, I am inclined to make an exception for this. As per usual, if amendments to - or clarifications regarding - this approval are needed, please start a discussion on the talk page and ping. --TheSandDoctor ^Talk 18:17, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
