I know a some of the manuals/ diagrams are hidden behind a pay wall or almost impossible to find and having one location that is not going to charge a subscription later would be great.

I'd like to suggest that CR-Wiki identify the best location on the Site to commemorate Jack Kennedy's 1962 Consumer Bill of Rights, which, although never specifically codified into US national Consumer Rights law, has nevertheless served as a model for many related Consumer movements and laws.

==An incorrect link and more== | |||
The Clippy Daily Dot article link is incorrect in the "In the News" template being transcluded to the Main Page | |||
:the link is https://www.dailydot.com/culture/youtube-clippy-pfx/ | |||
:but should be https://dailydot.com/youtube-clippy-pfp | |||
The correct link says "pfp" (profile picture) and the incorrect link says "pfx" for some reason. | |||
It was a pain to find the transcluded template with the error: | |||
:https://consumerrights.wiki/w/Template:Main_Page/In_The_News | |||
Since this other similar page is linked from the template: | |||
:https://consumerrights.wiki/w/Consumer_Rights_Wiki:In_the_news | |||
It's atypical of MediaWiki based projects to not directly link to the view template page from the template itself. And maybe the page similarity issue should be solved with a merge? | |||
Lastly, and most significantly, the historical view of the Main Page at the time of the edit that added the template in question (6 July 2025) | |||
:https://consumerrights.wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page&diff=prev&oldid=16466 | |||
includes the Daily Dot Clippy story (12 August 2025) which wasn't available at the time of the edit, demonstrating that the transclusion was refreshed even for the '''''older revisions''''' of the Main Page. The older "renderings" of the page shouldn't have been modified with updated transclusions not just for preservation purposes, but also because it would waste a bunch of the server time dealing with extra stuff in the MediaWiki Job Queue. | |||
I am not sure how hard those other things are to fix but there you go. [[Special:Contributions/209.44.198.25|209.44.198.25]] 09:48, 20 March 2026 (UTC) | |||
:Sorry for not seeing this earlier and thanks a lot for this! I've done the first as it's very easy, but @[[User:JakeL|JakeL]] could do the second one as I'm not sure how to fix it.
