I would love to see Extension:SandboxLink added to the wiki, so I wouldn't have to use this page for my personal sandbox.

Contributions[edit]

I have been adding templates to the Templates category, they are all sub categorized which makes them harder to discover. I think categorizing them all improves that. Some of them are not editable by me, however. So here's the list I'm keeping for myself of those.

Template Reference[edit]

FYI[edit]

Sunday 24 November 2024

Local time is wrong - 13:08

  • we're on WikiMedia Version 1.39.10
  • user count: 414
  • admin count: 4
  • active count: 2
  • number of articles: 1,119

Desirable Template[edit]

For suggested placement at the end of the Science or Fiction section.

After investigation, I suspect this is desirable to implement as an extension. I plan on installing a local wiki and working on that.

{{SOFResults
|episode=581
|host=Steve <!--- asker of the questions --->
|topic1=whiskers <!--- short word or phrase representing the item --->
|topic2=chimpanzees
|topic3=coma
|fiction=whiskers
|topc4=
|rogue1=Bob <!--- rogues in order of response --->
|answer1=whiskers <!--- guess, using one of the topic's names --->
|rogue2=Jay
|answer2=whiskers
|rogue3=Evan
|answer3=whiskers
|rogue4=Cara
|answer4=whiskers
}}

Would output something like:

Science or Fiction (581)
Steve crushed
Bob whiskers
Jay whiskers
Evan whiskers
Cara whiskers
other topics
chimpanzees
coma

Suggested colorings:

Host Colorings
swept #ccffcc all the rogues guessed one of the incorrect items
scattered #ccccff each item was guessed at least once (Steve's preferred result)
mixed #ffffcc some wrong, some right
crushed #ffcccc all the rogues guessed the correct answer
Rogue Colorings
correct #ccffcc correctly selected the fiction item
incorrect #ffcccc selected one of the science items
