Template Help

Hello Muuj. I'm looking for some help with creating a new template(s). The purpose of this template would be to facilitate the fleet chart of airline articles. Right now the fleet charts are incredibly unstandarized, despite the fact that the information in them is pretty standard. I put a bunch of effort into designing the United Airlines fleet chart. I'm pretty sure that this chart has the highest level of complexity that would be required. I'd like to make it standardized, but the problem with that is it gets pretty hard to edit through all of the tables. One other "would be nice" feature would be to drive categories into the articles for 737 Operators, A320 Operators, etc. The goal here would be to eventually replace the lists of aircraft operators that are hand maintained. Are you interested in helping me out? Or do you know someone who might be interested? Thank you... —Cliffb 05:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

• I'd be willing to help in a few weeks. For the most part, it looks like it'd be pretty easy to do. However, the "United Airlines Type" subdivisions (that require row-spans) could be tricky to do in a template. That could be done if we limit the number of subdivisions to 3 or 4. In general, we would require at least two templates: one for the table itself and one for each row. It looks like it'd be a lot of fun, and I'll try to think of possible approaches in the next few weeks. (Unless you want to find someone else who can start working on it right away, in which case let me know.) —TheMuuj ^Talk 12:02, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
  • I left a message for both you and User:Koveras at about the same time. It seems like he's ready to go on this right now.. So I'm going to work with him since he's ready.. If you've got any idea lemme know. —Cliffb 18:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
    • No problem. I'm still willing to offer advice if you need it, but Koveras is on the right track. Those tables are just complicated enough to be a headache, and even the template syntax won't be very "clean", but at least they'll be harder to mess up. Anyway, if you are interested in voting, bugzilla:2194 has a proposal to add new namespace for tables and charts, with the intent of eventually writing a table editor. I think that, in the long run, that's what we really need. —TheMuuj ^Talk 18:57, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Album infobox template deliberations.

Hi,

A while back, you expressed some concern about the inflexibility of the album templates used in articles. Well, several revisions have been made, and your input would be greatly appreciated. Also, comments, concerns, questions, and proposed revisions are being entertained at this time. Please consider voting on the proposed changes; and include any proposed changes that you have in mind. Cheers, Folajimi (leave a note) 14:12, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

The studio album template discussion is just about done; the poll on switching to lightsteelblue from orange was successful. Thank you for taking the time to participate in that discussion, as well as all other input you provided during the effort made to revise the template used for WP:ALBUMS. --Cheers, Folajimi (leave a note) 16:36, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

Doing something about the ridiculous date autoformatting/linking mess

Dear Muuj—you may be interested in putting your name to, or at least commenting on this new push to get the developers to create a parallel syntax that separates autoformatting and linking functions. IMV, it would go a long way towards fixing the untidy blueing of trivial chronological items, and would probably calm the nastiness between the anti- and pro-linking factions in the project. The proposal is to retain the existing function, to reduce the risk of objection from pro-linkers.[ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Tony1 (talk • contribs) 00:49, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

Thanks for the ref highlighting trick

As I assume you know, it's been included on en. Thanks so much for figuring it out and publicizing it. 75.214.202.6 (really User:JesseW/not logged in) 09:23, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

• I don't have a wikipedia account and don't plan to edit much at this point, but nonetheless want to leave here my anonymous thanks for the highlighting trick using the CSS 3.0 pseudo-class :target you pointed out - it's been quite useful to me both in reading wikipedia and in creating a similar effect in my web pages. So, thank you! 201.78.180.138 06:23, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Age category

Hello! If you are receiving this message, that means that your user page is in a specific year category. Per a recent user-category per deletion, all specific year categories are to be deleted. If you wish to continue using year categories, you have two options:

• Using an age group category, such as Category:Wikipedians in their 30s
• Using a decade category, such as Category:Wikipedians born in the 1970s.

If you wish, you may do both. Hopefully, this change in categorization will be quick and painless. Happy editing! --An automated message from MessedRobot 13:02, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:KLBJ_FM_93.7_-_Local_Licks_Live_1991.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:KLBJ_FM_93.7_-_Local_Licks_Live_1991.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BigrTex 21:05, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
