== Duplicate edit notices ==

[[2025 Potomac River mid-air collision]] presently has the exact same "Before you edit this page" edit notice duplicated three times. Why is this and how can it be fixed? – [[User:Scyrme|Scyrme]] ([[User talk:Scyrme|talk]]) 18:36, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

:Those are not the ''exact'' same, as they cover different CTOPs and specify as such. However, I do agree there should be some way to combine them or shorten the redundant text included in each. &bull;&nbsp;[[user:quinntropy|<span style="color:#065">Quinn</span>]]&nbsp;([[user talk:quinntropy|<span style="color:#000">talk</span>]]) 18:45, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
::{{ping|Scyrme}} [[Template:Editnotices/Page/2025 Potomac River mid-air collision]] has the three seperate uses of {{tl|Contentious topics/editnotice}} for different topics. [[Talk:2025 Potomac River mid-air collision]] combines the three with a different template {{tl|Contentious topics/talk notice}}. In September 2025 [[User:HouseBlaster|HouseBlaster]] wrote at [[Template talk:Contentious topics/Archive 2#Option to have multiple topics for one template?]]: "It is on my list to extend this functionality from {{t|contentious topics/talk notice}}".

:::Looks like the talk page notice accomplishes this using a Lua module, whereas the edit notice doesn't have a module yet. (Probably because doing it without a module would require a lot of conditional expressions.) I suppose the only thing to do is wait until HouseBlaster (or someone else who can code in Lua) gets around to it. {{pb}} Thanks for tracking down the details! – [[User:Scyrme|Scyrme]] ([[User talk:Scyrme|talk]]) 19:40, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
::::I'm still planning to get to this, but real life and other wiki-responsibilities have kept me away from that. As a band-aid solution, in this case, you can probably just display the AMPOL notice.
