Problem

Can the event template be avoided? One could simply take all pages that start with a date as event pages. Tobias Conradi 20:14, 22 December 2007 (CET)

This should be possible easily (using titleregexp). The advantage of the DPL calendar is in my eyes that users can easily make such changes themselves witout the need to deal with php programming. Personally, I prefer to have a common category for all event pages as this makes the selection much more efficient and is compliant with general principles and traditions of Mediawiki.

My idea of having no extra category stems from fears of editors making errors. Less choice - less errors. Tobias Conradi 22:24, 22 December 2007 (CET)

the link back to the calendar would be missing. Tobias Conradi 22:20, 22 December 2007 (CET)
