comment regarding [[Help:Template#Version 1.2.6]] In versions 1.3 and 1.4 the prefix "msg:" is optional and ignored. *From version 1.5 the tag {{msg:abc}} refers to Template:Msg:abc !* Dear friends! I have seen at various wiki's that a) many pages still contain {{msg:foo}} b) there are still many redirects from templates located originaly in the MediaWiki namespace to their equivalent in the template namespace. a) could be changed with a [[en:Wikipedia:Bot]] b) are the result of actions performed by [[User:Template namespace initialisation script]] and can be identified with [[Special:Contributions/Template namespace initialisation script]] Best regards Reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
For reasons that are unclear to me, Avar made an incompatible change to what msg: did on the 1.5 branch. I've reverted the change; it now continues to be compatible with previous usage.
