[Migrated] Add the full {{Disambiguation needed}} template when tagging a link
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Currently when disambiguating, if you are unsure what the link should be disambiguated to AWB lets you tag it with {{dn}} so that it's more obvious and hopefully another editor will see it and fix it. This behaviour should be changed so that AWB adds the 'full' {{Disambiguation needed}} template along with the date parameter. This will reduce the need for future cleanup by bots etc. Jamesmcmahon0 12:31, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

@Jamesmcmahon0 I replaced {{dn}} with {{Disambiguation needed}}. Still not adding date parameter. It should be doable by just refreshing the page after adding the tag.

There is a problem that if you reparse the page, AWB finds the Disambig link again and brings up the disambig dialogue box. Could the AWB logic be changed so that the disambiguation is done before general fixes etc. are applied?

So before we added {{dn}} if chosen by user, now we add {{Disambiguation needed}}. If we added {{Disambiguation needed|date={{subst:CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{subst:CURRENTYEAR}}}} would that solve this one?

@Rjwilmsi - Yes I think that would solve the problem.
