As I said on the [[Template_talk:Fire|Fire talk page]], too many things use fire (or ice) for these templates to be practical. Instead, I propose we alter these templates so that they only include things made of, or irrefutably linked to fire/ice. This is a better design because readers could then research creatures of fire or ice with as much ease as if they were using the [[Template:Birds|Bird]] or [[Template:Fish|Fish]] Templates to research those kinds of beings, instead of getting bogged down with species that only use fire or ice. For example, if someone wants to research Birds, anything else in the Bird Template that flies but isn't a bird would slow them down; however a misfile like this would be obvious as a bird is a clearly defined animal, while what can be considered appropriately placed under "Fire" and "Ice" is much more subjective. As such, I'm open to suggestions on what should or shouldn't be removed, my first attempt (complete with justifications for my choices) can be seen alongside the original templates [[User:Walkazo/Templates|here]]; as are newer split-template versions of Fire and Ice suggested by [[User:Soler|Soler]] below, which are now the designs I plan to put into effect if this proposal passes. | As I said on the [[Template_talk:Fire|Fire talk page]], too many things use fire (or ice) for these templates to be practical.

Revision as of 14:43, July 5, 2008
A proposal section works like a discussion page: comments are brought up and replied to using indents (colons, such as : or ::::) and all edits are signed using the code {{user|User name}}. Signing with the signature code ~~~(~) is not allowed due to technical issues. How To
The times are in EDT, and are set so that the user is more likely to be online at those times (after school, weekend nights). So for example, if a proposal is added on Saturday night at 11:59 PM EDT, the deadline is the next Saturday night at 8:00 PM. If it is indeed a minute later, the deadline is a day plus 15 hours (Sunday), as opposed to a day minus 4 hours. Also,
New FeaturesNone at the moment. RemovalsNone at the moment. Splits & MergesNone at the moment. Changesbowser's favoriteI noticed that in the koopalings article that it claims that it is never stated that Bowser jr. is his favorite offspring however in the Bowser jr. article it says that he is Bowser's favorite and I think that both articles should contain the same information. Fire and Ice TemplatesAs I said on the Fire talk page, too many things use fire (or ice) for these templates to be practical. Instead, I propose we alter these templates so that they only include things made of, or irrefutably linked to fire/ice. This is a better design because readers could then research creatures of fire or ice with as much ease as if they were using the Bird or Fish Templates to research those kinds of beings, instead of getting bogged down with species that only use fire or ice. For example, if someone wants to research Birds, anything else in the Bird Template that flies but isn't a bird would slow them down; however a misfile like this would be obvious as a bird is a clearly defined animal, while what can be considered appropriately placed under "Fire" and "Ice" is much more subjective. As such, I'm open to suggestions on what should or shouldn't be removed, my first attempt (complete with justifications for my choices) can be seen alongside the original templates here; as are newer split-template versions of Fire and Ice suggested by Soler below, which are now the designs I plan to put into effect if this proposal passes.

OpposeCommentsHow about something like this for the Fire template, and something similar for the Ice? I tried to simulate Walkazo's formatting as best as I could: feel free to fix the formatting. I feel that this would serve both people with Walkazo's view of the term and those with a broader view of it. If the show/hide feature is unnecessary, please remove it. Another option would be to split the templates in two. —Soler (talk). (I am going on holidays on Sunday, so please excuse me if I do not reply to your unrelenting criticism...)
Dom (talk) - Hey, the User called Soler made these templates about fire! Get it? Solar...fire? Ha ha...........??? On a serious note: Soler's split templates are a brilliant idea, better than the all-in-one oversized template.
MiscellaneousNone at the moment. |
