What with this update, will this template be updated to allow its in-place uses to just… work again, or will all those instances need to be changed or updated to some other new thing? — Fourthords | =Λ= | 14:54, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
- No, I'm working on migrating them to the Chart Extension, which is the "new thing".

- Congratulations! We've broken all the charts on Wikipedia. Odinbait (talk) 13:22, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- They have been broken for ... 2 years. It's just we've finally started to address the fact that we've broken all charts on Wikipedia now. GalStar (talk) 17:28, 8 June 2025 (UTC)
- Also note that there are a good number of working charts with the new extension, like the one on Internet. GalStar (talk) 17:28, 8 June 2025 (UTC)

Lets the module generate a list of pages that have graphs that can be ported over to mw:Extension:Chart. With an invoke on template:graph:chart it will put an page with an portable graph into a category and mark the graph itself. I am proposing special:diff/1294948277 to be added to Module:Graph and "{{#invoke:Graph|chartCompatible}}" just before "</includeonly>" to Template:Graph:Chart, similarly to Special:Diff/1295024931. I believe I have consensus from the prior discussion for this change, but I am also willing to wait to gather more opinions. Snævar (talk) 07:08, 11 June 2025 (UTC)
- +1 on this, but with minor changes. To be portable, it should be required that the name attribute is present. I have made this edit here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Module:Graph/sandbox&diff=prev&oldid=1295094282.

- I would prefer then that the code puts pages into a different category. Only categorizing pages that have the new name argument means that an user would allready have to find and figure out if the graph can be ported, which breaks the purpose of this code. So, I have added the category "Category:Graphs to be ported" if the name argument is not in place, in this diff.
- The workflow of a user using this is as follows: 1. User sees a graph in "Category:Graphs to be ported" 2. User adds the name argument 3. Bot can create .chart and .tab pages on commons. Snævar (talk) 23:11, 14 June 2025 (UTC)
