I kept the original template syntax in mind when making the template. There shouldn't be any errors if there weren't in the original template, but then again we don't know if there are. The additional parameters I added are also optional, so they shouldn't even show up on most pages.

There is a minor problem if the  is a Soundcloud link (in which case the text will still display "Bandcamp" with the associated icon). I'll try to make it so that the icon can be changed.

Howeer, you're right. There may be unforeseen bugs in the program, and I know I haven't looked through all 500-ish pages that use Template:Rip to see all of the exceptions.

Right now, I don't think renaming the template is any different from inserting "/test" at the end of the "{{Rip" call, and I also don't think all of the pages need to be checked this way. It would still require "immediate work", as you say, since we would need to change every page using Template:Rip to the /test version (or whatever the name is), and then back again.

Another solution is that we can go through WhatLinksHere and look through the rip pages for an idea of the type of problems we might get into. Most of them will probably be about the links, since that's the only thing I've really changed.

Both of these options will take some time, but then again adding descriptions to wiki pages also takes some time.
