Template talk:Pattern

Are you guys sure the usage of a template is good here?

From my point of view, if the user sees style="background: pink" he's going to understand pretty quick that this is what's making the cell pink. However, if he sees well he's going to have more trouble figuring that out.

Honestly, the only use I see in such a pattern is if we want to change the chosen color in a heartbeat... but that is not very important.:p Maybe with better template name it'd be better, but with the current naming, more of a nuisance than anything. If we apply template name, I'd go with clearer (but sadly longer) naming. Maybe like:


 * Confirmed weapon
 * Confirmed accessory
 * Unconfirmed (or Deduced from pattern)

Longer? Yeah, however like that a new user will understand the whole better. The templates, as they are currently implemented, just add another layer of foreknowledge and just because a nuisance to the purpose of the wiki. Another alternative would be a tempalte called confirmed and another unconfirmed. Then, we could put a switch for either weapon or accessory and then the place to put the text. Something looking like this: ✅.

So, whatdaya think? --Borror0 09:25, February 20, 2008 (EST)Borror0
