Tompw / Apterygial: it seems that while this page should be auto-updating every week, it didn't do it since at least the beginning of 2018 season. E.g. Portal:Formula One still shows 2018 Australian Grand Prix as being next event. Could you take a look and fix it? cherkash (talk) 03:05, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@cherkash: I believe the page is still updating properly (i.e. it is correctly reporting that the next race is "Round 1"), it's just that the "Round 1" subpage (Portal:Formula One/Next Grand Prix/Round 01) hasn't been updated yet at the end of the 2018 season. BTW, Apterygial hasn't edited since 2011 and Tompw seems to edit rather infrequently these days (only 1 edit in the last month), so we should probably remove their names as people to contact. Tvx1 has been updating the "Round XX" subpages at the end of the season for the past few years. DH85868993 (talk) 03:19, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
It seems the automatic updating cyclus wasn't updated for 2018 either. As a result the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix wasn't displayed ever (round 21 hadn't been added to the cycle).Tvx1 14:44, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
For week 48 (this week), it transcludes Portal:Formula One/Next Grand Prix/Round_01, which was recently updated from Australia 2018 to Australia 2019. This portal will require manual maintenance, unless we transclude the year number and hope that the venues and sequence never change. Certes (talk) 00:06, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I think the current mechanism is OK; it just requires updating once a year (which has just been done) and then it pretty much works fine for the next 12 months. There's just a little wrinkle this year in that the 2018 season finishes 1 week before the 2019 season; I think we can manage that on a case by case basis.
