Template talk:Cite Q

Different results for links from title into Wikisource on Simple.

Different results for links from title into Wikisource, wih simple Wikipedia performing differently to the English Wikipedia. Initialially noticed the issue with {{Cite Q}} (wikidata:Q19063894) But the best example of problem is with {{Cite Q}} (Wikidata:Q42854406), where the title links to [1] on the English Wikipedia but links to [2] here when it actually needs to link to the website (en.wikisource.org) rather than (simple.wikisource.org). Please investigate. Thankyou. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 16:59, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

@Djm-leighpark: Please raise this at en:Template_talk:Cite_Q - since that's where most of the work is based. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 16:27, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

@Mike Peel:. Not possible for me on :en due to indef blocking CIR & battleground with elements of Wikipedia Foundation and Wikimedia UK loosely associated with the block, thus you may have past/present COI and probably shouldn't get involved for your own good. I did trace the probable/possible area of the problem as relating to circa line 529 of Module:Q line 528 slink = ':s:'..wikisource_sitelink but suspect that statement may not have been executed so slink = mw.wikibase.getSitelink(qid) at 520 might be involved. I'd have to understand and go into the called function to try and guess further. It could be a code issue or a Simple Wiki only excpetion or configuation or code issue. Unfortunately I have plenty of other stuff on including uploading a load of photo's I took today. Thanks. -- 00:27, 9 October 2022 (UTC) User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 00:27, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
