User subpages for planned modification to Living Presidents of the United States, with the parenthesized parameters:

v.0

v.0

[edit]

where the parameters (all but hours being numbered) are:

  • Office is P(President) or V(Vice President)
  • Number is the ordinal number of service in the office
  • Change is M(inus) or P(lus) or successor's number (for deaths in office), or empty (to suppress ± in Box)
  • Data is the type of data to be returned
    • p/m inaug/death date, yyyy-mm-dd format
    • P/M inaug/death EventType: D(eath) , A(ssination) , P1/PI(1st/only inauguration) , V1/VI(1st/only VP inauguration) , VC(VP Conformation)
    • C color, e.g. "fbb4ae", to fill boxes
    • n formatted number, e.g., "{{0|0}}9" or "10"
    • N name of officeholder
  • hours is a named parameter which takes on a single value 5+1⁄2, the time between the deaths on July 4, 1826
v.0→v.1

v.0→v.1

[edit]

Here's my plan to convert the structure of these templates. Except for the one group of changes marked "MUST BE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY", stopping at any bullet or sub-bullet will leave the output of the top-level templates unchanged. They should be done in the order listed.

  •  Done Preliminary work
    • checkY Create all VP inauguration pages as redirects to running mate's inauguration
    • checkY Build 2nd list of templates with to-be list of parameters
  •  Done Convert templates to optionally consume named parameters
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ / Lookup✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} → {{{Number|{{{1|}}}}}}
      • {{{3|}}} → {{{Office|{{{3|}}}}}}
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{Change|{{{2|}}}}}}
    • Lookup✓ :
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{Data|{{{2|}}}}}}
    • Row✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} → {{{Office|{{{1|}}}}}}
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{BgnNbr|{{{2|}}}}}}
      • {{{3|}}} → {{{BgnChg|{{{3|}}}}}}
      • {{{4|}}} → {{{EndNbr|{{{4|}}}}}}
      • {{{5|}}} → {{{EndChg|{{{5|}}}}}}
  •  Done Convert template calls to use named parameters:
    • EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ calls to Lookup :
      • {{Lookup|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{Lookup|Number=aaa|Data=bbb|Office=ccc}}
    • Row calls to EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{EventDate|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{EventDate|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
      • {{EventLink|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{EventLink|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
      • {{{Box|aaa|bbb|ccc}} → {{Box|Number=aaa|Change=bbb|Office=ccc}}
    • LivingPOTUS✓ / LivingVPOTUS✓ calls to Row:
      • {{Row|aaa|bbb|ccc|ddd|eee|...}} → {{Row|Office=aaa|BgnNbr=bbb|BgnChg=ccc|EndNbr=ddd|EndChg=eee||||||...}}
  •  Done Convert templates to consume only specific numbered parameter
    • Lookup✓ / EventDate✓ / EventLink✓ / Box✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} →
      • {{{2|}}} → {{{|1}}}
      • {{{3|}}} →
    • Row✓ :
      • {{{1|}}} →
      • {{{2|}}} →
      • {{{3|}}} →
      • {{{4|}}} →
      • {{{5|}}} →
  • Red XN Convert template calls to eliminate inherited params and use specified numbered params:
    This doesn't seem to work as I expected, so I'm not going to do it.
    • EventDate / EventLink / Box calls to Lookup :
      • |Number=XXX →
      • |Office=XXX →
      • |Data=XXX → XXX
    • Row calls to EventDate / EventLink / Box :
      • |Office=XXX →
  •  Done Renumber numbered parameters in Row
    • Multiple changes that MUST BE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY:
      • LivingPOTUS: |||||| → |
      • LivingVPOTUS: |||||| → |
      • Row: {{{6|}}}→{{{1|}}}; {{{7|}}}→{{{2|}}}; ... {{{14|}}}→{{{9}}}
  • Red XNMerge LivingVPOTUS into LivingPOTUS and convert former to call the latter
    This won't work, I think because it excedes the transclusion limit
  • Documentation
    • Decide on template-space names
    • Build 3rd list of templates with to-be template names
    • Build /doc subpage
  • Move to template space
    • Move Lookup
    • Change Lookup calls in EventDate / EventLink / Box
    • Move EventDate / EventLink / Box
    • Change EventDate / EventLink / Box calls in Row
    • Move Row
    • Change Row calls in LivingPOTUS / LivingVPOTUS
    • Move LivingPOTUS / LivingVPOTUS

v.8 - gradually implement in template space

[edit]

General principles

  • Always call subtemplates with fully qualified template names
  • Parallel P/VP subtemplates completely separate except (maybe) Color, PlusMinus where VP can be a redirect to P
 Done: Create blank subtemplates
  • checkY V: Row, Event, Box, Name, Color, PlusMinus
  • checkY P: Row, Event, Box, Name, Color, PlusMinus
 Done: Create testcases for all subtemplates except Row, sandbox
  • V✓/P✓ all possible evt for PlusMinus, Event (actual cases)
  • V✓/P✓ multiple nbr (1,2,9,10,45,46,48,49) for Name, Box (includes Color)
 Done: Implement all subtemplates except Row, sandbox
  • V✓/P✓ PlusMinus - exact copy, parameter unnamed, slightly modified to work with null param
  • V✓/P✓ Color - exact copy
  • V✓/P✓ Name - modified subsets
  • V✓/P✓ Box - copy with namespace mods, parameter unnamed
  • V✓/P✓ Event - copy with namespace mods
 Done: Row & sandbox
  • V✗/P✗ Add side-by-side comparison and list of all boxes (later had to delete)
  • V✓/P✓ test cases for Row (from+to; 2*from+to; from+2*to; from+∅; hours)
  • V✓/P✓ implement Row - copy with namespace mods
  • V✓/P✓ implement sandbox - copy with namespace mods
Prepare for final implementation in template space
  •  Done Write doc page
  •  Done Compare size to current versions
    338451/402333 Current POTUS/VOTUS post-expand include size
    961493/1126936 Sandbox POTUS/VOTUS post-expand include size
  •  Done Research relative referencing and possibly implement. See Help:Link § Subpage links
  •  Done Convert to relative links
  •  Done Compare corresponding P- & V-pages: /Row /Event /PlusMinus /Box /Name /Color /sandbox /testcases
  •  Done Add sandbox subpages as copies: /Row, /Event, /PlusMinus, /Box, /Name, /Color
  •  Done Change sandbox to call templates relatively
    Red XN Relative sandbox failed to work when trying to promote it to template space
  •  Done Remove relative calls in top level sandbox
  •  Done Try promoting it again
    Red XN Got the same result as before, so I don't think the problem is the relative paths in the main template.
  •  Done Change back to using absolute paths in main sandbox and in all non-sandbox subtemplates
  •  Done Verify that this will display correctly if it is promoted to template
  •  Done Promote both sandboxes and view main-space page
    Red XN The VP template won't display, probably because template expansions are too large
     Done Revert to previous versions
  •  Done Compare sizes
    • 379604+54598 Current post-expand include size Living POTUS+VOTUS post
    • 1003151+1168587 Sandbox post-expand include size Living POTUS+VOTUS post
  • See if there is a way to significantly reduce the size of the templates
  • Look at element stuff to see how DePiep has set up sandboxes with subtemplates
  • Figure out how to work sandbox - maybe separate sandbox for every subtemplate?
  • Seek input about implementation

[edit]

where (...) indicates parameters; → indicates calls; ≠/≈/≅/≡ indicate increasing levels of comparability; and parameters are indicated by:

  • ymd: date of the event in yyyy-mm-dd format
  • nbr: ordinal number of service in the office, 1 for Pres Washington and VP Adams, etc
  • evt: event: i(nauguration), 1(st inauguration), c(onfirmation), d(eath), a(ssassination)
  • ymd1/nbr1/evt1 and ymd2/nbr2/evt2: the ymd/nbr/evt associated with the period start and end
  • e1a/e2a: event i/1 for the succession after a death (a/d) in office
  • hours takes on only one value 5+1⁄2, the time between the deaths on July 4, 1826
  • 1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9: Ordinal numbers (nbr) of living officeholders during period as unnamed params
  • 1.<param> Unnamed parameter which takes on the domain of <param>
