  • {{Jctint/state}} needs to be imported. Imzadi 1979  17:15, 25 June 2023 (EDT)
    • Was already done. --Rschen7754 14:44, 27 June 2023 (EDT)
  • {{Ccr-end}} needs to be imported. Imzadi 1979  17:37, 25 June 2023 (EDT)
  • {{infobox road}} is displaying a blank "Defined by" line for highways without a legal definition, such as Interstate 196. Imzadi 1979  19:22, 26 June 2023 (EDT)
    • This should be good now. –Fredddie 02:01, 2 July 2023 (EDT)
  • {{Fact}}  DoneFredddie 16:42, 2 July 2023 (EDT)
  • {{Refimprove}}  DoneFredddie 16:42, 2 July 2023 (EDT)
  • {{Open access}}
    • This template is quite misused and probably does not need to be imported. It's only supposed to be used for manually coded citations, and not appended after existing citation templates. Imzadi 1979  00:52, 27 June 2023 (EDT)
      • I remember seeing something on TWL that strongly suggested adding {{Open access}} after any citation where you gained access to a site through TWL such as newspapers.com. Perhaps guidance has changed since them, but old habits die hard. –Fredddie 02:01, 2 July 2023 (EDT)
      • That being said, I don't necessarily we need to follow that practice and it would not kill me if we didn't do it. –Fredddie 02:04, 2 July 2023 (EDT)
        • Yes, guidance changed for two reasons. First, Newspapers.com clippings technically don't comply with Open Access requirements. For a period of time, there was the suggestion that we use {{free access}} instead, but then the CS1 templates indicate access anyway, making the icon at the end of a citation superfluous as the second reason. Part of my MURA writing will promote using the citation templates as a best practice, so that negate the need for either template. Imzadi 1979  11:32, 3 July 2023 (EDT)

Both templates are slated for removal. –Fredddie 19:26, 2 August 2023 (EDT)

 Done turns out this was a redirect to {{Official website}} which we already imported. –Fredddie 02:47, 6 September 2023 (EDT)
