User talk:Eep

Todo list
This conversation has grown a bit more general, and it would be useful to get other people involved. I have moved it to Manual talk:Configuration settings —The preceding unsigned comment was added by HappyDog (talk • contribs) 05:06, July 26, 2007.

Template:W
Hi, why did you revert my changes, such as the one to Category:MediaWiki components? There's no need for an useless template when you can do the same thing with page title and it works well and doesn't make the page source code messier etc. -- Sayuri 13:27, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Did you even read my edit summary comments? It's all explained there but I'll reiterate it here for you: the template requires less typing. -Eep² 14:07, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


 * vs. Pagetitle Your template reduces the need to type a grand total of 1 character but now requires you to hold down the shift key for 4 characters and strech your finger to hit a character when the other form uses a easier to access character, and causes stress for the MediaWiki parser because now it needs to go and parse a template in addition to the links and substitute variables. In this template doesn't make anything simpler. If this were Wikipedia, Wikiquote, or any Wikia wiki the community would be tagging it for deletion. Dantman 14:16, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


 * I wasn't aware putting a pipe (and not adding anything after it) removes the namespace. -Eep² 14:46, 26 July 2007 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, this trick doesn't work when using templates, as in (actual link, not    'd). :/ -Eep² 22:32, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

Tables overflow TOC
Eep, the text overflowing the TOC on your user page is within a TABLE. I don't know why but tables overflow the TOC on my wiki, too. Simply fix is to use standard text instead a table for at least the portion of your user page that is currently overlapping your TOC. Do let me know if you discover more about this though. --Rogerhc 23:58, 6 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey, well, oddly, on my former Wikipedia page (I'm banned now), the same design didn't overlap the TOC. That's why I tried copying over Wikipedia's TOCright template, but something else is obviously not right. :/ -Eep² 04:01, 7 August 2007 (UTC)


 * If you are going to use HTML, do it right. You have two opening table tags and only one closing table tag right now. Not kosher. Also remove the width attributes from the table that the TOC is floated to right of or else use regular text instead a table there. This should fix the overlapping text. I tested stuff at User:Rogerhc/TOC_overflow. --Rogerhc 05:05, 7 August 2007 (UTC)


 * The additional    fixed it. Thanks. -Eep² 05:51, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

Project:Extension requests
Hi Eep, what do you mean by proper merge? --Flominator 08:05, 14 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi. As I said in the edit summary ("(by date of initial request)"), the merge should put the discussions in chronological order. From what I can tell, the Extension requests page had more recent discussions than Extensions/Wanted Extensions yet the merge was not integrated and instead just slapped on the end. —Eep² 08:41, 14 August 2007 (UTC)


 * ah, ok. I thought you wanted to merge the historys or something around those lines :) --Flominator 07:39, 15 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, that might be good but I don't think it's really necessary. —Eep² 08:54, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I didn't think that, as well, so I just merged them by date. --Flominator 12:18, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

Simple Forms extension
Please don't flame around like this. Even if you think he is not being reasonable, fanning the flames doesn't help. Making responses like that just comes of as childish and it's annoying to look at. Aaron 06:55, 22 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Fine, but I would appreciate you giving him similar advice too... —Eep² 06:57, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
