Replacing (Number)

I think that it should be possible to replace (Number) with the # symbol without having MediaWiki think that it's a section by placing the following code in MediaWiki:Common.js: $(document).load(function() {
var text = $('h1:first-of-type').text();
text = text.replace('(Number)', '#');
$('h1:first-of-type').text(text);
});

It wouldn't actually change the page name itself (so you'd still have to search for the page as its name appears now), it would only change what appears at the top of the page (Metax's page shows what I'm referring to). -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 10:33, 4 July 2012 (PDT)

Actually, even better, if you set $wgAllowDisplayTitle to true in LocalSettings.php you could change it directly on the page by adding {{DISPLAYTITLE:Saga Guides/Tentacles by Turakii #1 Lavasurfer}}. If we integrate DISPLAYTITLE into the infoboxes it'd also let us get rid of the (Generation _) part of titles without relying on JS. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 17:07, 16 November 2014 (CET)
Addendum: Apparently you have to set $wgRestrictDisplayTitle to false as well, otherwise you're only allowed to change capitalization and replace spaces with underscores. -- Morris the Mata Nui Cow (talk) 18:26, 16 November 2014 (CET)
Sure, I'll believe that =P.

typo

there's a typo on this page - homonym error of there vs. their. is that because it was originally written that way and we're trying to keep the original (and thus we should add a "sic" to it) or is it just a plain old grammatical error? Intelligence4 (talk) 06:36, 5 May 2017 (CET)

We do try to keep these preserved based on how it was written by the winner, as not to dishonor them. I suppose we could go ahead and ask the original authors if they would not mind us editing them for grammar, though. It's probably something we collectively should ask ourselves of which is more important: Spelling/grammar, or accuracy to the original entry? --External Image Owner (talk|contribs)
