Hi Christopher,
I'm glad you found this template useful. However, as you use it to replace IRC channel references in wiki pages, please make sure that you also edit to remove redundant references to Freenode. In other words, if the original source reads:
Come to IRC Freenode and visit us on #fedora-websites
You should be editing to replace this with:
Come visit us on {{fpchat|#fedora-websites}}
This will replace the text to read:
Come visit us on IRC Freenode #fedora-websites
The reason I did not use "IRC Freenode" in the original template text is that I can't know which pages would have this redundant text, and which would not. However, I *can* assume that wherever "#channel-name" appears, it will be OK to make that text link to the appropriate webchat.freenode.net URL.
Changing any template has effects on a large number of pages, so if you are changing the template, you need to be prepared to either make fixes on all the pages that use it, or make very small changes that are unlikely to affect the pages negatively. Thanks for contributing.
Thanks, Paul. I will manually replace all error syntax asap. By the way, should we change this template to irc://xxx or just keep ？ 在 2012-2-29 上午1:14，"Paul W. Frields" stickster@gmail.com写道：

We can't depend on people having an irc:// handler package on any random platform on which they're reading the wiki page. But the web URL will work fine everywhere.
Got it.Thanks.
