	'''Technical:''' External links, like the Twitter link are coded with only one pair of square brackets and the divider between link and display text is the first space not a pipe. So, the Twitter link should be coded as <nowiki>[https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity Twitter]</nowiki> which then gives [https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity Twitter] as you have it now it looks like [[https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity\| EVE Uni's Twitter]] and it does not work because it is looking for <nowiki>[https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity\|</nowiki>, notice the pipe at the end of the link? Twitter can not find that page. --[[User:Evon R'al\|Evon R'al]] ([[User talk:Evon R'al\|talk]]) 14:19, 1 May 2022 (UTC)		'''Technical:''' External links, like the Twitter link are coded with only one pair of square brackets and the divider between link and display text is the first space not a pipe.

			: You are absolutely right Evon, I agree about all your points. This is the first iteration, I'm happy about the progress even though it is clear that the template includes only about 30% of all EVE University related pages that I'd like to see. For example, [[:Category:EVE University Policies\|most EVE University policy pages]] are missing. I've talked to [[User:Ezra Salaz]] about improving on what John has started and they proposed [[User:Ezra Salaz/Sandbox/Template:Management Rules Services Navbox]] as the second iteration. I'm currently musing on about the third iteration and everyone willing is free to join me in improving he unified EVE University template on page [[User:Arin_Mara/Sandbox/Template:UnifiedEVEUni]]. Thank you John, thank you Ezra, thank you Evon on your valuable input :) [[User:Arin Mara\|Arin Mara]] ([[User talk:Arin Mara\|talk]]) 19:33, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
