Template talk:Fake link

Is it me or is someone abusing this formatting template? I'm seeing these things used in articles (from "What links here" page), not just the Fake News. :( RAP.pngRAP... Another rule required to be set up...? Check? ;o

UPDATE: Not much articles as I thought to fix, two of them... still though... RAP.pngRAP... ...Hmmm. ;|

Red Link Fake LinkEdit

{{#ifeq:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|{{#ifeq:{{FULLPAGENAME}}|Main Page|#|{{PAGENAME}}}}|[[{{{1|Main Page}}}|{{{1|{{{2|default}}}}}}]]|<span title="{{{2|{{{1|}}}}}}" class="{{#ifexist:{{{1}}}|fakelinks|new}}">{{{1|default}}}</span>}}

The code: class="{{#ifexist:{{{1}}}|fakelinks|new}}"

I figured out a way to detect if the page exists so that way a fake red link can be created instead of a regular (blue) link to an otherwise red link. However, can't edit the template and MediaWiki:Common.css needs to be modified. Class new should inherit fakelinks style. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 19:56, 29 June 2017 (EDT)
