Opening Paragraph

A lot of the information there is redundant, especially considering that it is already present in the template. Is it really needed? –Xoid STFU! 15:27, 4 May 2006 (BST)

Well, I made this page prior to the new template's existance, as with every Huntley locations page, sans the Parks. I've been doing my best to adapt them but frankly, I'm at a loss, considering that this constant template updating and changing keeps making certain things redundant, and/or creating major issues with spacing and page layouts. If you have an idea on what to do, I am more than open to suggestions. --Aiden H 4H 09:57, 22 May 2006 (BST)
Heh, if you hadn't of answered me on the other page, I wouldn't have remembered to reply. (I just took Huntley Heights Junkyards off my watchlist a couple of days ago, but I must of missed the factories page.)
To answer your question: don't worry about there being more changes to the template; it's finally hit the "maturation point" - the previous iterations were unprofessional, and sloppily coded. The new one is excellent, and I see no reason why it should change drastically in any way. (I may optimise the table thought at a later date, but it won't change the current format in any way.)
Note that this doesn't mean it won't change; it's a template, few templates around here haven't had some sort of tweaking done by me. I've rarely needed to do anything more than cleanning up faulty code, trimming the fat off, or categorisation though.
Adding this XHTML tag — <br style="clear: both" /> — will automatically 'unfloat' anything below it. In a case where there are multiple {{locationblock}} templates on a page, you'll need to add the tag after each one.
If you have the {{locations-stub}} template on the page, please try to remain consistent with what I am ramming down everyone's throat   forcing people to do (uh… where's a bloody thesarus when you need one?) – well you get the idea.
(Mouseover each aspect, and you can get additional information.)
Just set it out like this:
{{locationblock|
suburb=Dunell Hills|
coordinates=4,38|
location_type=Hospital|
NW_location=[[Arbuthnot Park]]|NW_color=Park|
N_location=[[Factory 4,37|A factory]]|N_color=Factory|
NE_location=[[Molesworth Road]]|NE_color=Street|
W_location=[[Horn Walk]]|W_color=Street|
This_location=Brendan General Hospital|location_color=Hospital|
E_location=[[Penny Crescent]]|E_color=Street|
SW_location=[[Wasteland 3,39|Wasteland]]|SW_color=Wasteland|
S_location=[[Ritchie Boulevard]]|S_color=Street|
SE_location=[[Lucius General Hospital]]|SE_color=Hospital
}}

All sorts of information about the hospital...

And there won't be any problems. –Xoid STFU! 18:12, 22 May 2006 (BST)


Thanks, I'll see about fixing up the pages with it. The spacing has been hell on me lately. XD --Aiden H 4H 11:36, 23 May 2006 (BST)


Sorry, it appears I forgot the tooltops, which is why I didn't just use the <pre> tags in the first place! Stupidwritingcraplateatnight. *grumble grumble*. Ah, move on folks, nothing to see here. –Xoid STFU! 11:46, 23 May 2006 (BST)
