Affecting at least the English and German wikipedia. Conversation from the en Village Pump as below - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_%28technical%29#Template:0] ==Template:0== The above template seems to have either disappeared or (according to the page it now [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:0 aims at]) is suddenly a bad title. This was/is a spacing template that was used on thousands of articles when right aligning numbers in columns in infoboxes. Is there a reason for this suddenly disappearing/not working that anyone knows of? Is there a replacement? [[User:86.21.74.40|86.21.74.40]] 02:16, 13 November 2007 (UTC) :This has also happened to the mainspace http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0. [[Template:0/doc]] still displays. There are also problems in other tested languages http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorlage:0 (German template) doesn't work but the article http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/0 works. I write full URL's because wikilinks to pages called 0 are also misbehaving. For example, the wikilink [[0]] gives the URL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ which goes to the main page.

The error was caused by svn revision 27443 - ($str == "") was changed to empty($str), which returns true on "0". The developers should be reverting it as we speak.
Fixed in r27448.
