Template talk:SVGvalid

Rename

{{Edit request}} The page name appears to be an original abbreviation for "SVG validity", making the distinction with {{Valid SVG}} extremely confusing. I recommending renaming to something like "SVG validity". If it seems surreal that a template which indicates whether a file is valid or not was named "SVGvalid", that's because this template is indeed part of a surreal collection.🙄 Chealer (talk) 17:26, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

 Not done. The documentation that this template decides whether to transclude {{Valid SVG}} or {{InvalidSVG}} seems clear enough to me, so I don’t think renaming it is worth the disruption a rename would bring. (I also think the confusion is less of a problem because the template is only used in other templates, not directly in files; but then again, if the template was directly used in files, then renaming it would be far more disruptive, so that argument doesn’t really hold water.) --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 17:12, 18 January 2025 (UTC)
Hi Lucas, renaming templates is fairly smooth because it's really a move, so a redirect is created and everything just carries on working. I don't think the above rename would be useful as stated. It is nice not to have run-together words though. Rich Farmbrough, 08:36 6 December 2025 (GMT).

Spaces please

{{Edit request}}

This template currently runs together some words: "The source code of this largeSVG is invalid due to 12 errors" and (I think) "This W3C-invalidmap was created with Inkscape." See for example File:EU-Luxembourg.svg. Sometimes it's also worth putting and extra thin space after italics, which I leave to the responder's discretion, the request is for rendered spaces: "largeSVG" → "large SVG" and "invalidmap" → "invalid map".

Can’t reproduce – at the linked file, I see The source code of this large SVG is invalid due to 12 errors. and This W3C-invalid map was created with Inkscape. Which user interface language are you using? Perhaps some language has incorrect spaces. --Lucas Werkmeister (talk) 14:49, 6 December 2025 (UTC)

@Rich Farmbrough: I also dont see the error you described. You might wanna make a screenshot to show it.--RoyZuo (talk) 15:19, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

To be honest with you, i dont have much knowledge in html and stuff.
here's what i think. can you please also check if you see the same missing of space if you view the page while logged out (open in incognito/private window)? also if you log in your account on a different computer? this would help find the common element of the problem and maybe then the cause.--RoyZuo (talk) 19:45, 4 February 2026 (UTC)
