This template is spewing [[:Category:Pages with template loops]] on <s>all</s> most pages those have parentheses in their page names, this happens recently after new Wiki update. There's got to be something up with codes behind the 'See also' section in this template. Also, BuildBot responsible for [[Template:CurrentGitRevision]] seems to be dead.

:Not all, apparently, WiiWare titles and some others were excluded. For non-WiiWare title, take this for example, Genesis version of [[Dai Makaimura (TurboGrafx-16)]] will take you to [[Ghouls'n Ghosts (Genesis)]], notice that latter one magically doesn't have template loop category.

::The Genesis version there isn't linking back to the TurboGrafx-16 one, so that's why it's not adding the category (weird it goes one way and not the other). According to [[Template:Exist]]'s documentation (which is used for the alternate console links), that template actually transcludes the other page in order to see if that page exists or not. So I think it's including wikitext from the other game page with its own infobox, which is being detected as a recursive loop (infobox call inside infobox call) and triggering the warning. You could try replacing them all with #ifexist instead to see if that fixes it, but there's a [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#ifexist_limits cap] on those and it might max out, plus the exist template says there's a bug with Wanted pages when using it. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 12:19, 20 July 2017 (CEST) | |||
