Talk:Rust/Compressed

Okay, apparently somebody did some unique editing and I have no idea what just happened. Isn't questart exactly the same as fanart? Weren't the codes merged? And what's with the Line Plus lines? Are those special wiki versions of "This is a proper linebreak"? --Tokoshoran 01:52, 29 June 2014 (CEST)

Yes, the questart / fanart templates are identical. One literally redirects to the other. It doesn't really matter which you use, except for editing conventions.

The other stuff you're describing is table formatting. The {| and |} Mark the beginning and end of the table, each | a new column, and each |- starts a new row. Looks like LionsPhil provided you with table formatting to line up the text and images in columns, like you were asking after in meep. -Dakdo 03:07, 29 June 2014 (CEST)

Ah, I see. That certainly is helpful. I've gone and made a unified copy of it for the sake of /icons/ images, since they're never larger than 64 pixels. This way, I don't need to worry about messing up the cell size just because of a longer name. --Tokoshoran 05:38, 29 June 2014 (CEST)

Yeah, sorry, I thought I made it clear enough in meep that that was me trying something for you; I replied with a link to the table markup docs too. The main reason for the questart/fanart split is so that we can change them independently in the future if there is some reason to, and very weakly so that we preserve better semantics if one day we want to scrape wiki pages for stuff.--LionsPhil 12:08, 29 June 2014 (CEST)

Moving the template talk here

Do you think we should go ahead with how the template is now (aside from a few changes for convenience, like more IF statements)? Basically, you just call the template like normal, but it just has to be inside of a pre-made table. Example why is on my user_talk page, or here: http://prntscr.com/44b0j7/direct --Lef 12:17, 19 July 2014 (PST)//

I like what you did with the backgrounds, it looks good!--Lef 15:17, 19 July 2014 (PST) //Wrong timezones, haha

I have to say, it’s looks great what you guys have done. The only thing I’m missing are categories for Sexuality, Skills and… um… alliance? (or association, affiliation, whatever you think sounds best). My only other request is that the description should be last, after trivia and the three things I mentioned before. Either way, good work guys. --Kaktus 13:21, 22 July 2014 (CEST)

Thanks, Kaktus! Adding those categories in/moving them around is a piece of cake, so no worries there. I'll make the changes, post the template-usage code here (for you to test out), then move the template from sandbox to its own name (what should I name it?), so let us know if you have any more requests before then! --Lef 15:01, 22 July 2014 (PST)

Sorry for the long inaction, but I haven’t had time lately to fix this thing. Either way, one last request is before you move it is to change alliance to Faction, it’s more fitting for what I was considering to write there. As for a name… RUNE Template maybe? Or rust… or something… I don’t know… --Kaktus 13:45, 15 August 2014 (CEST)
