Formula parameter
Since the formula is clearly the most important parameter used by this template, couldn't we simplify the wikicode by using the first numbered parameter {{{1}}} to pass in the formula? We can still retain {{{formula}}} for backwards compatibility. —Vini (t|c) 03:12, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
- That's how it used to be in the beggining, and it caused errors due to
=sign inside of formulas, e.g.{{math|2 + 2 = 5}}. I didn't know a fix for that other than calling a parameter by name, like{{math|1=2 + 2 = 5}}, that's why I decided to make a named parameter{{{formula}}}instead of{{{1}}}. But now I see we can use Template:= instead of=, so it makes sense to use{{{1}}}— Freeeeez aka TheFrz – 08:45, 6 July 2016 (UTC)- I see. I would prefer to use a named parameter than have to use Template:=, so I think we can leave it how it is now. —Vini (t|c) 09:05, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
