== Pilot Userboxes ==

I would like a few userboxes available for fellow pilots, that they can choose between depending on their license(s). They'd say "This user is a ______ pilot".
The blank would be "Private, Commercial, Helicopter, or Airline".
If possible, I'd like a black background with a logo of a small fixed wing aircraft, a helicopter, or an airline gif image.  Crimson red border if you can.
Thanks!

:{{done}} @ [[Template:User pilot]] -- what do you think? I didn't want to use a black background since the wikilinks have bad visibility against it (with the default theme), but I suppose we could change the link color.... I'm a bit reluctant to deviate from the standard color scheme, but feel free to change it if you'd like. — [[User:XDanielx|<font face="Arial" color="green"><b>xDanielx</b></font>]] <sup>[[User talk:XDanielx|T]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/XDanielx|C]]</sub>\<sup>[[Wikipedia:Editor review/xDanielx|R]]</sup> 18:56, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

== Tifinagh ==

Hi! I'd like a template that shows words in [[Tifinagh]] (a language that uses a script most people do not have on their computer) using like [[Template:Hiero]], which shows hieroglyphs. Becasue 'till now, most articles have images showing these words. This will be mostly used by articles about places. The letters can be found on [[commons:Tifinagh]], and, as you can see, the [[Unicode]] letters do not show up. Thanks in advance. --<font face="Futura, Helvetica, _sans">[[User:Escondites|<span style="font-variant:small-caps;color:#ddd7a3;padding:0 3px 0 3px;background:#aba67e;cursor:se-resize;">escon<span style="color:#ffffff;">dites</span></span>]]</font> 10:38, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
: Ooh, good question.  Hieroglyphics are supported with the help of [[meta:WikiHiero|WikiHiero]], a MediaWiki extension.  Tifinagh has unicode code points so if you're not seeing it that most likely means you don't have any fonts installed which support it.  For most multilingual script on Wikipedia, we just rely on the user having the necessary font installed and sometimes show images alongside.  Hieroglyphs use a special extension because as far as I know they don't have unicode support.  To support what you're asking for I can think of three ways:
:# Create or modify a MediaWiki extension like WikiHeiro which supports Tifinagh - Requires PHP coding skill and need to get consensus to install those updates
:# Create a template which parses your input and substitutes images - Requires the ParserFunctions extension which is also not installed
:# Create a template which handles only a single character at a time and call it repeatedly. - Inelegant and runs up against some technical limitations
: Really you should double-check you have font support, and if you're still having trouble, ask at [[WP:VPT]].  You may later wish to add a warning like the one used for {{tl|Burmese characters}}. <font face="monospace">[[User:Dgies|<font color="#00F">'''&mdash;dgies'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Dgies|t]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/Dgies|c]]</sub></font> 08:07, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

== Museum Catergory and Info boxes ==

I would like to make a couple of template boxes.  The first is a infobox for Museums.  The box should include Title, Image of the Museum, Name of Museum, Date Founded, Location, Type of Museum (i.e. Natural History, Art, etc.), Director, Curator, Endowment, Logo, & Motto/Slogan.  This box should be a single column and the first row should use the color grey.

The second box is a catergory box for museums.  Information in that box could include links to catergories of types of museums.

:Regarding the first one, would [[Template:Infobox Museum|this]] suit your needs? — [[User:XDanielx|<font face="Arial" color="green"><b>xDanielx</b></font>]] <sup>[[User talk:XDanielx|T]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:Contributions/XDanielx|C]]</sub>\<sup>[[Wikipedia:Editor review/xDanielx|R]]</sup> 09:14, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

== Ayrton Senna! ==

As an F1 fanatic, I find it hard to believe that there are no userboxes for Ayrton Senna (or if there IS one, I just can't find it)! And it's especially annoying because I was able to find one for Alain Prost. Can someone please create a good Senna userbox and give the great man the place he deserves??[[User:Raghuvansh r|Raghuvansh r]] ([[User talk:Raghuvansh r|talk]]) 20:47, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Me again! Can someone make a good userbox for [[Tiesto]] fans? I've made one and put it on my page, but I'm not too happy with it. And I'm not good enough to make anything better.

== United States Marine Corps Ranks ==

I would like if someone could create Userboxes Saying this user is a [rank] in the United States Marine Corps. that would be great. I have tried but cannot.

Ranks may be found here: [[United_States_Marine_Corps#Rank_structure]]

If it could be made similar to the army userboxes with the Marine Corps Seal on the left and rank on the right I think that would be best.

== Mental sanity questioned ==

I'd like a userbox about mental sanity questionable, like "Wikiholics" or the stress of life. This is, of course, not serious, but I was thinking about an either blue, black, or red background with a picture of a crazy emoticon with the words "This user's mental sanity is questionable.", or "This user is stressed out to the point where he/she may go crazy."

== Link colors can be improved ==

I would like to suggest changing the link colors from blue to a more readable color (gray). If you look at Wikipedia's main page, it looks like a mess. This is because many words are LINKS, some are BOLDED, some are black others are blue...

I know this may sound ridiculous, but changing some of these colors could make the main site (an the rest of wikipedia) LOOK CLEANER.

Another simple but important example: Why the list of dozens of languages, when all you need is a simple pull-down menu?
You have a link in the page for Slovenščina, that only a small percentage of the wiki readers need.

Let's clean this up a little and make Wikipedia look less like Yahoo.com.

== New Template Request ==

I'm wanting a Template for my user subpages, although i haven't created any at the moment i was trying to find a template which i wanted but wikipedia hasn't got it, at the moment my userpage isn't that organize which I'm trying to sort out.

On some of the other user pages, i've noticed that they have layouts and have organized their subpages, example [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Misza13 Misza13] I'm wanting a similar template but different and coveres the entire userpage, and with a different background style, to suit the username title SKYNET which could be based on the computer code background or the matrix style where any user or non-registered user could see.

Although there are no subpages for my user yet, i want to have the ability to add new pages and links on the template which expands, but for other pages the boxes could be a collapsing box at the bottom of the template.

== house md episode template ==

It's a template for the House series. The episode list has a column called "Final Diagnosis" which some of us that frequent the list think is a spoiler, but others think enhances the list. I want to propose that the diagnosis go under the story summary, in a table that defaults as hidden. The part that I can't figure out is how to include a nested table in the current table. Here is what I have done so far: Template:Episode_list/House and here is what I based it on: Template:Episode_list. You'll notice that I'm also updating the original template so that this one has variables that are more specific to the House list (e.g., Director instead of Aux2).[[User:Crazytonyi|Crazytonyi]] ([[User talk:Crazytonyi|talk]]) 18:36, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
: If people don't want to see [[WP:SPOILER|spoilers]], they should know to not read episode summaries here. The fine layout of the article shouldn't be compromised for this reason. Splitting off a template to cater to a specific TV series is generally not a good idea, and this would apply to other TV series as well. –[[User talk:Pomte|Pomte]] 19:24, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
::That is not a reasonable point of view, I'm sorry. People go to episode summaries to find out information such as air date, title, and, obviously, a simple summary. Many people want this information before they watch the show. Having the centerpiece of the show, the answer to the riddle, revealed before you watch an episode, is just unfair. People should at least be warned that the entire page is a spoiler. The only reason that column was added was because it was suggested by the featured list committee.  I don't want to just join sides on the talk page saying it should be taken down, I want to help solve the problem. Having that information as hidden is the best, and most stylish, thing I can think of. To simply dismiss this idea with "these people just shouldn't use this page" is unfair and very unrealistic.  If it's too much trouble to help me make the template, that's fine. Don't help out. But please don't pass it off as what is best for the list. A good summary should not ruin an entire episode, which this list does.[[User:Crazytonyi|Crazytonyi]] ([[User talk:Crazytonyi|talk]]) 19:44, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
:::The {{tl|spoiler}} template was deleted after [[Wikipedia:Templates_for_deletion/Log/2007_November_8#Template:Spoiler|numerous painfully long debates]], so readers cannot now be warned about spoilers. But I think it's pretty obvious there are spoilers on the entire page when you go to [[List of House episodes]] and notice the column on the right for the first season at the top.
:::The hidden nested tables can certainly be done, but I fear they'll eventually get reverted. Please refer to the people at [[Wikipedia talk:Spoiler]] to look for consensus on this issue.
:::Practically, I don't understand why people would come here for air date, title, summary, etc. There are plenty of other places to look for this info, particularly the official FOX website and various entertainment websites, where it's their job to not spoil things in the summary. Right now, I am watching a particular show and making sure that I don't go anywhere near the articles for it, because Wikipedia is indifferent and not necessarily looking out for the interests of its readers, so I think it is realistic for people to not come here if they don't want the show ruined. –[[User talk:Pomte|Pomte]] 22:56, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

:::I discovered the problem. It's your Internet Explorer, which can not show it right. When you press hide, it removes the single boxes and their content, but it does not remove the borders, which form a stripe on the bottom. It's the same problem with the other infoboxes, but it is worse here, because there are so many borders. You only have to correct the first line of the table code. Instead of <nowiki>cellspacing="2"</nowiki>, you write <nowiki>cellspacing="0"</nowiki>. There's one disadvantage: Now there are no borders, if the infobox is opened.

== Template colliding with infobox, triggering nabox state ==

There is [[Template:Tracklist|a new template]] to provide a unified, table-based look for album track listings and I could use a little help, in order to work out a few remaining kinks. For one thing, the template is prone to overlap with album infoboxes at low resolutions (below 1024), while ideally, it would properly adapt or be bumped down. The latter is probably more desirable/easier to implement, given that all lists in an article are supposed to maintain the same page width percentage. On a lesser note, the template triggers the collapsed state of navboxes, since it also inherits the collapsible class. Can this behavior somehow be suppressed while retaining collapsible functionality for the track lists?

== Political division wikilink template ==

Hello. I've been editing wikipedia for some years already and found a certain task very repetitive to make. That deals with making wikilinks with political divisions.

For example. If I will make a wikilink for my hometown [[Candelaria, Zambales|Candelaria]], [[Zambales]], i need to have the following syntax: <nowiki>[[Candelaria, Zambales|Candelaria]], [[Zambales]]</nowiki>.

I have worked tremendously with articles which have links to local political subdivisions. That's why I'm requesting a template that will make the job easier. Let's say the new template I'm requesting will take the name '''pdiv'''. Then let a1, a2, a3, ..., an represent the political subdivisions from innermost then outward. Then,

<nowiki>{{pdiv|a1|a2|a3| ...|an}} = [[a1, a2, a3, ..., an|a1]], [[a2, a3, ..., an|a2]], [[a3, ..., an|a3]], ..., [[an]]</nowiki>

Example:
<br><nowiki>{{pdiv|Orange County|California}} = [[Orange County, California|Orange County]], [[California]]</nowiki> = [[Orange County, California|Orange County]], [[California]]
<br><nowiki>{{pdiv|Kalayaan|Palawan}} = [[Kalayaan, Palawan|Kalayaan]], [[Palawan]]</nowiki> = [[Kalayaan, Palawan|Kalayaan]], [[Palawan]]

I'm requesting that the template should not be limited to "child, mother" pattern for there might be "child, mother, grandmother" or higher order patterns in wikipedia (though I don't know one). Also, I don't really know how templates are created, that's why all the pdiv syntax I used is just for illustrative instruction. Just please make a template which will do the job easier.
:{{notdone}}, but with a possible edit :) {{tl|city}} probably does the trick, but I can add to the code that's already there if you want grandparent functionality.

== Lists or tables adequate for the purpose intended ==

In sections of articles like [[Katakana#Nations]] and [[False cognate#Examples]], lists or tables of examples that for purposes of the article are best taken to be illustrative and not comprehensive can get out of hand as each person tries to add his own favorite example. After discussion in Talk, it would be nice to have a template preceding such a list or table to the effect that "The following list or table of illustrations or examples has been deemed adequate for the purpose of this article. Please do not add new items to the list without providing a reason in Talk and allowing reasonable time for discussion of your explanation." There could be an optional argument for a description of reasonable exceptions. For example, for the Nations section in the Katakana article, a reasonable exception would be described as "Exception: as of April 2008, this table is lacking in examples for Latin America, Africa, and Asia. If these examples are still lacking, feel free to add some." &#8212;[[User:Largoplazo|Largo Plazo]] ([[User talk:Largoplazo|talk]]) 16:44, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

== Frazione infobox subst? II ==

Hi guys. [[Wikipedia:Requested templates/Uncategorized#Frazione infobox subst?|Back in February]] I request a frazione infobox template for Italian parishes, and another template to allow easy substing of the it.wiki equivalent. Thw1309 [[User:Thw1309/Sandbox|made a start]] but then seems to have been distracted, or tried to be overambitious. Would someone like to take up the reins? This is the relevant bit of the original request :<br>

Someone's done a cute subst that allows you to copy and paste the <nowiki>{{Comune}}</nowiki> infobox template for Italian towns from it.wiki and it automagically turns into an en.wiki <nowiki>{{Infobox CityIT}}</nowiki> infobox, with the field names translated appropriately - [[Arvier]] is an example.  Would anyone like to do a similar subst for the it.wiki [[:it:Template:Frazione]] template seen on eg [[:it:Carcegna]] - I don't think there's an English equivalent target infobox, so you'd have to make that as well as the subst. <br>

I think there should be one for ''[[A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome]]''. [[Ficus Ruminalis]] is one article that copies from it, and such templates are normative alternative to footnoting the whole thing with one [http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Gazetteer/Places/Europe/Italy/Lazio/Roma/Rome/_Texts/PLATOP*/Ficus_Ruminalis.html link]. There is a bunch on [[Wikipedia:Template_messages/Sources_of_articles#Including_third-party_content]]. [http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Gazetteer/Places/Europe/Italy/Lazio/Roma/Rome/_Texts/PLATOP*/home*.html Bill Thayer] claims it really is in the public domain, which sounds right as it was published in 1929, more than 75 years ago, and is available on two other sites. Which is another reason to prefer an internal link to the book article, over external links as sources, where it is used.
