Adding drafts to tracking category

Hello all. I wanted to see if we could revise this to add pages in the draft namespace to Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images. It would help catch these before they get pushed to the main space. Doesn't make a huge difference but would be nice. :-) --Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 17:21, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Template:Done Did it a couple of hours ago, but then forgot to reply. -- WOSlinker (talk) 20:43, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Object per concept (for future). Either it is "Cat:Pages ..." including all, or it is "Cat:Articles ...". -DePiep (talk) 21:00, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Template:Ping I'm actually going to undo this change. After a few days of it being there I've realized that all it does is flood the category with Drafts that are likely never to become articles. Of the 75 or so pages I've fixed in the draft space, at least 50 of them were outright spam that would never pass WP:AFC. I think it is fine to just catch the few that slip through once they hit the main article space. --Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 19:18, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

Bug when sizedefault is just a number

I added the same "px adding" logic for sizedefault so |sizedefault=250 is the same as |sizedefault=250px. please revert and let me know if this causes a problem, but all the examples look fine. Frietjes (talk) 14:52, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

How to suppress "100px" when image is specified but does not exist

In the last example in the documentation, a nonexistent file shows "100px" in red if a file is specified but does not exist. Is there a way to track this problem, display an error message, suppress any display entirely, or some combination of those? I encountered this problem here and was unable to fix it by changing the infobox. It is probably better to solve the problem here rather than in every template that calls this module. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:52, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

User page being added?

Anyone have any idea why/how User:ABaso (WMF)/sandbox/Module:InfoboxImage is being added to Category:Pages using infoboxes with thumbnail images? I thought only main articles could be added... --Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 18:26, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Because the categories are literally included in the page, typed in double square brackets, as you would include a category manually in any page by typing the category's name. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:42, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Template:Ping HAHAHAH!!!! Ok I well and truly earned myself a WP:TROUT!! Thanks! --Zackmann08 (^{Talk to me}/_{What I been doing}) 00:38, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

Nah. I only knew because I've been bitten by the same thing more than once. It's a devil to figure out when you are sure that the only way to get the category you are looking at is to use the template or module. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:46, 28 August 2017 (UTC)
