Template:Forumheader User:Solar Dragon/ArticleTemplates
OK, for a while now, I've been looking for a better template design as improvement templates are taking up a lot of space on articles. I therefore propose that we start to use this design User:Solar Dragon/ArticleTemplates. You can see it in action in the Sandbox. Best thing is that we can add as many templates into that as possible. Templates we don't need on an article don't show up etc. Hover over the images to see text. Only problem is that we can not add links in text, however, links can be added on the images.
If we go for this design, It will take a lot of effort to change all templates on the wiki but they will gradually be changed. So, what do you think? ☆The Solar Dragon (Talk - Contribs.)☆ 20:25, 29 August 2011 (EDT)

Comments
- I left out neutral as neutral won't help anyone in this situation. ☆The Solar Dragon (Talk - Contribs.)☆ 20:25, 29 August 2011 (EDT)
- Made a bit of a change to the template. The Solar Dragon (Talk - Contribs.) 09:42, 30 August 2011 (EDT)
- @FatHomer, could you explain why you oppose please? The Solar Dragon 13:30, 30 August 2011 (EDT)
- I wouldn't move my "mouse" over the pictures if i didn't knew that they meant something. Now i now, but i also comes people from the outside. Also i don't think the "conjecture" with more templates are annoying. FatHomerTalk 09:12, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
- I don't have any problems with making them smaller, but the ones above might be too small. I mean, the templates are supposed to be more eyecatching (I'm assuming) so that a person reading the article would see them and know immediatly how the article needs to be improved, what it's missing, etc. Nick97 10:38, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
