ThorAvaTahr: merge template; explanation placeholder (2009-05-01 18:18) [#6015]

I was wondering whether there is a placeholder for an explanation in the "merge template". The placeholder I think should not have a visible section in the merge box, but rather be a comment that can be read by anyone who wants to follow up the merge request. Would it work if I just place text like this {{merge|GoBoard|*explanation*}}. (I would normally consider this bad style)

I edited your post to show the intended syntax.

If you want to make an explanation that only shows up during page edit and not on the displayed page itself, the comment "%" operator is sufficient to do the job.

Anyway, I modified the Merge Template to accept a second "comment" argument which shows up in the displayed page. This is for consistency with some of the other templates.
