| Working on some methods of standardizing the Current Status section of location pages...
| | This is a blank space now! |
| '''Give some suggestions and opinions!''' These are all works in progress, not to mention that standardizing the Current Status section hasn't been voted on or agreed to. These are just my ideas for it.
| |
| ==Idea Number 1==
| |
| {{code|<nowiki>'''~~~~~:''' ''Concrete information such as: general building status (fuel, generator, radio, barricades, etc.), number of zombies/survivors inside/outside/in the area.''<br /></nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>Recent events, individual perspectives, calls for help/action, announcements, etc. --~~~</nowiki>
| |
| }}
| |
| Rendered as:
| |
| | |
| ===Current Status===
| |
| '''04:11, 23 December 2008 (UTC):''' ''Powered, low fuel. Barricades at VSB. 20 survivors inside, no zombies in the area.''<br />
| |
| Generic Group has claimed Location as its headquarters. Zombie Horde may be moving in from the north. --{{User:AClashInRedSnow/sig}}
| |
| | |
| ==Idea Number 2==
| |
| {{code|<nowiki>{|style="border:solid 1px black; background:#D3D3D3; border-spacing:0; font-size:90%; width:30%"</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|-</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|Generator/Fuel||Barricades</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|-</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|# of Survivors||# of Zombies</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|-</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|colspan=2|Additional text w/ timestamp (or just timestamp)</nowiki><br />
| |
| <nowiki>|}</nowiki>
| |
| }}
| |
| Template would be formatted like [[Template:Locationblock]] so that the variables in the template in turn refer to other variables (example: <nowiki>{{CurrentStatus|Generator=None}}</nowiki> would call the <nowiki>{{CurrentStatus/Generator|None}}</nowiki> variable, displaying on the actual template something like "This location does not have a generator."), allowing quick and easy updates rather than typing things out for every change.

| |
| {|style="border:solid 1px black; background:#D3D3D3; border-spacing:0; font-size:90%; width:30%"
| |
| |-
| |
| |Generator: Running||Barricades: VSB
| |
| |-
| |
| |Survivors In Area: 25||Zombies In Area: 0
| |
| |-
| |
| |colspan=2|Blah blah the British are coming blah. 10:38, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
| |
| |}
| |
| | |
| Template to be prettified and actually properly formatted ASAP. Maybe add a link to the archives...but only for the Additional Text? Doesn't seem necessary to archive the template every time it goes out of date.
| |
| | |
| ==Archive Standardization==
| |
| As for archival, I'd suggest that "Current" Statuses be put in an archive after...1 month or 10 updates, whichever comes sooner.
