Template talk:Unsigned

Name optional?
I've been wondering if there might be a way to change the code so that the template works if the name field isn't put there. Like for example, sometimes someone might sign the date with 5 tildes, but not actually leave their name, in which case doing unsigned|date would be nice. That or, just seeing unsigned comments and leaving the template would help to notify people that we need to go look through the history to find the missing name/date. Off-hand I'm not sure how to do it yet TBH though, I know these involve a lot of if/else type stuff and don't want to screw it up. If I experiment I think I'll do it on userspace since you can't really preview changes when it comes to template testing since it needs to be saved and viewed on other pages first. +y@talk 13:31, February 3, 2012 (UTC)
