Revision as of 15:53, 29 July 2005
Current problems/things to deal with:
- line breaks between title/sub boxes and sub boxes/beginning of articles, to make things cleaner.
- Less requirements for formatting the text directly, more template-managed formatting
- Side article appearing at the top of the table rather in the centre.
- Further smaller templates that can be used together to add smaller articles after this page.
Apart from those, what do you guys think for now? DorianGray 29 July 2005 10:51 (CEST)
- I have an example for the last one at User:DorianGray/Avamar_Times/Issue_Two. I realise I've been spamming the recent changes with constant reversions, and I apologise for that. However, I have come to believe that a selection of seperate templates rather than one large main one and a number of minor ones as I have just made would be more effective. Currently, the whole thing on the Issue One page is one template, then all up to where it splits off into two equal columns against the page on Issue Two is one template. Each of those small articles at the bottom of Issue Two is on its own template (admittedly, I use each template twice). However, having such a large one as I made for the main articles of these I do not believe is the right direction. Rather, I think having a set 'header' template (name, price, quote, etc), and then a number of 'main' and 'minor' templates (major aligned left, major aligned right, etc) would allow greater versatility and easier page creation.

Beautiful! I have a feeling you're going to have to write something up explaiing how to use the templates, though. --Dolohov 29 July 2005 15:53 (CEST)
