This forum page is to discuss the creation of the "Edithint" templates. I welcome ideas and criticism. These templates include {{Edithint-tense}}, {{Edithint-formatting}}, {{Edithint-nitpick}}, {{Edithint-personal images}}, {{Edithint-vandalism}}, {{Edithint-bias}}, {{Edithint-canon}} - and probably more to come in the future. — Morder (talk) 11:28, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
- I would roll all of them, including the templates like {{test}} and {{preview}}, into one page like how you have it on your sandbox page Morder, and just have it be {{Edithint|(name)}}, though shorting it to {{eh|{name}}}, like the Article Type templates, {{at|mu}}, would make it more user friendly. - Archduk3:talk 11:46, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
- That's a good idea; I find myself currently searching for templates because I can't remember them, so having a central page would help. Kudos to Morder for his work on this.--31dot 11:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
You have to give credit to both Archduk3 for having the same idea and Cobra for instigating the idea. :) I initially thought of having one template for all, however the difference between | and - ({{edithint-canon}} or {{edithint|canon}}) isn't much. And it also allows for us to make changes to different templates that make sense such as alternate parameters and such. I can still go for one template to rule them all though. — Morder (talk) 11:53, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
- Point taken. Good work everyone.--31dot 11:58, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
