==Main_category template==
 
Could someone please make a category called "Main_category" (or whatever you choose), that is just like "Main", except that, instead of saying "For a more detailed treatment, see <whatever>" it says "For the main article, see <whatever>".  The existing template is suitable for article pages, while the new one would be suitable for templates that want to show the main article about the template subject.  [[User:SamHB|SamHB]] ([[User talk:SamHB|talk]]) 01:05, 16 April 2016 (EDT)

==Date templates==

I'm thinking of making before and after templates, so that a phrase can change slightly depending on the current date. For example, I'd like to have a countdown template for the transition from Obama to Trump.

Right now (as I write this), there are 5 days till the inauguration. As Friday gets nearer, I'd like the daycount to go down by one every day. Then on Friday it should say "Inauguration is today". After that, it could say "Trump is president" (or something like that). --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 08:06, 15 January 2017 (EST)
