Randomization Seeds
So one other template we might want to consider for use as a randomization seed would be CurrentGitRevision. It definitely seems to update regularly, though there are likely still concerns with caching. Things like NUMBEROFARTICLES:R and NUMBEROFPAGES:R will stop updating (or slow down significantly) once we complete generating title pages.
- {{CurrentGitRevision}} should already trigger page refreshes anyways since all pages call it from version compatibility, so using it as a seed shouldn't change behavior from how it is currently at all. - Xerxes (talk) 08:32, 29 January 2018 (CET)
