Category:Pages using Tropicos template without author names

Following up on recent comments at Template talk:Tropicos: Category:Pages using Tropicos template without author names is supposed to, as you wrote, "tracks citations of resources that should have author names but do not (such as the Flora of Missouri)". The tracking category is picking up every instance of {{Tropicos}} that doesn't have |first= and |last=. The template supports a positional parameter for a "Tropicos project". Most instances of the template do not specify any "Tropicos project", and first/last parameters are only (possibly) relevant to "Tropicos projects". Most instances of the template should never have first/last.

{{Tropicos}} isn't very widely used (309 transclusions) and most uses don't specify a "Tropicos project". I am inclined to seek deletion of [[Category:Pages using Tropicos template without author names, but if you are inclined to improve the code behind it so that it doesn't pick up instances where a "Tropicos project" is not specified, please go for it.

It looks like I wrote the opposite of the logic I intended into the template. It should have tracked only for two projects, not for all projects except those. So the category should begin to empty now. — Eru·tuon 02:49, 27 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
