Template Issue

If you look at my template loop test, the appears to be a " sign and a extra [[ sign. Is this usual? LordofEditing (talk) 23:04, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Seems to be the ending brackets to "It has been suggested that this page or section be merged with [[:Template loop?". The extra quote there to end this (Reason: "Template loop?) but templates appear after it that separate the ending quote. No issue there. 4e696e6a6f795844 (talk) 23:13, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Interesting... because I was just testing to see whether interior templates within a template would screw up the outer template, but seems not. LordofEditing (talk) 23:15, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

I think you were missing a parameter. The quotes at the end mark the end of the 'Reason'. This works:

This page is a candidate for deletion. [discuss] Reason: "Template loop? It has been suggested that this page or section be merged with some page-name. [[[User talk:LordofEditing/Sandbox#|discuss]]] Reason: "Template loop? It has been suggested that this page be moved to some page-name. [[[User talk:LordofEditing/Sandbox#|discuss]]] Reason: "Template loop?" " "

So if I try this:

This page is a candidate for deletion. [discuss]

I edited your template above, to help explain the quotes. – Ferretwings ^(talk) 22:50, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
