What's a wikilink conflict? Selbsportrait (talk) 16:40, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Selbsportrait! A wikilink conflict happens when the CS1 template has two links fighting. In the case of my recent edit to Project 2025 (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Project_2025&diff=1303711632&oldid=1303699165), I changed "[[List of contributors to Project 2025|contributors]]" back to "contributors" because the URL for the news article and List of contributors to Project 2025 were both trying to be the clickable link.
Hope that helps! Snowman304|talk 16:50, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I see. There's a "<ref>" missing.
Thanks! Selbsportrait (talk) 17:08, 1 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

September 2025

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Flashcard. When you were adding content to the page, you added duplicate arguments to a template which can cause issues with how the template is rendered. In the future, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find these errors as they will display in yellow at the top of the page. Thanks.
