"Manage TemplateData" does not handle templatedata added via template correctly
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

I just noticed that the TemplateData included in https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:Internetquelle/Doku?veaction=editsource via template is not recognized by the "Manage TemplateData" dialog. Using this dialog will not edit the existing data, but add a second (redundant) TemplateData block to the page - as can be seen in the page history:

This seems like a excellent reason to get your community to not include templatedata via a template. Pretty much every other wiki doesn't do this.

Deskana moved this task from To Triage to Freezer on the VisualEditor board.
