Please please PLEASE use the preview button before putting changes up, and when you do, mark them as minor changes. You're spamming the recent changes page for no reason, -Capet 11:34, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
Sorry about that. I only do wiki stuff here and am still learning. Didn't know about marking the page as minor edits and forgot about the preview. -Robert 13:40, 29 June 2009 (CST)
- FWIW - I went to Special:Preferences and set my preferences to mark all my changes as "minor" by default. Then if I make a change that I consider a major change, I can uncheck the box. That way I don't ever have to worry about all my little edits being recorded as a big edit. --Indirik 18:46, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you for the advice. I have now set mine for minor edits, so I should at least have this issue resolved from now on.- Robert 13:53, 29 June 2009 (CST)
Regional Templates
Part of the idea of moving to a new regional infobox template is to try and consolidate the templates and create a single template, or possibly a very limited number of templates, that can serve all the functions that a user wants. That way every realm or user won't feel the need to construct their own version of a template, and we can have some consistency amongst the various region pages. If there is something that Template:RegionBox doesn't do that you are trying to implement in Template:RegionBox2, perhaps we can discuss it, and see if we can add it into Template:RegionBox. --Indirik (talk), Editor (talk) 17:51, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
- That makes sense. I just wanted to see about adding an option to include the realms banner above the image and since I am still very new to this and didn't want to test my skills out on the live template I created the new one. You can see what I was trying to accomplish on the Demyansk page. Of course, the way I have means that there has to be a manual entry made for the realm banner, so it is not nearly as good as the way Template:RegionBoxworks. Would there be a way to make it so that the page would pull the banner information automatically or that if the banner field is not entered it can be hidden? - Robert 13:01, 15 July 2009 (CST)
