Old Location Content Returns

I’ve been needing to do this for a while, all of the location information that was wiped has been partially restored- but finally in a controlled way. For viewers you’ll see this as an orange banner on the article. If a new article has already been written, the old content will not show.

For editors, this article content isn’t what you’ll see when trying to edit. You’ll need to copy any info from the page if you want to use it. These articles were from a much older style and format, with sometimes lots of filler, so you’re going to want to rewrite it and find sources regardless.

For people wanting to know the code, this appears as old.md in the folders. Only when content.md is either missing or empty will the old text display. For the future this is how we’re going to mark dubious articles that we don’t want fully erased, just renaming content.md, but given things are more moderated now I can’t imagine that’d be used often.

I’ve also went ahead and finally fixed the ShowBiz tag being broken. I was wondering how that even broke when I never made any changes, apparently an article had ‘Showbiz pizza place’ with different casing added and it overwrote the tag list. The tag builder now combines any terms with similar casing. Sorry for the long inconvenience on that one!

Tag list also added to the entry count when an article was linked multiple times so now the count should be lower and more accurate.
