It appears that main.css defines a font-size of x-small. Then later another class boosts this by 127% (why 127? god knows)


===Top Priority Buildings===
Both browsers appear to take x-small as 10px on default settings. Thus render a default size of 12.7px which gets rounded to 13px.
*Top Priority Buildings (All have reports)
FF appears to get it right at 12.7px. IE likes 12.8px better (rounding error after so many levels?)
**Forts
***Omnimap, SIM
**Malls
***MSM, Omnimap, SIM
**NecroTech Buildings
***NTSM


Apart from Forts, dedicated maps exist. Apart from NTs, general maps note these buildings.
Whilst these both round to 13px nominally, it might explain some of differences when applying another layer inline.


===High Priority TRPs===
For example, an additional value of 90% inline would result in 11.43 for FF, but 11.52 for IE, so FF goes for 11px and IE 12px.
*High Priority TRPs (Significant but incomplete report coverage)
**Hospitals
**Police Departments


No mapping used.
In this case, scaling values can be chosen, but need merely be carefully picked to avoid values that generate these differentiating results.


===Phone Masts===
*Phone Masts (All have reports)
**Phone Masts
***MPMSM, MPM, MPMIC


Dedicated page, BIC and map exist.

==Unused Template Sorting==
*Template:BigPrickMap/Target - Table formatting code, no incoming links. Probably safe to delete.
*Template:Blane Tracker/List - Personal template which should be carted to his userspace.
**Template:Blane Tracker - Not unused, but should be moved.
**Template:Blane Tracker/Active - Not unused, but should be moved.
*Template:Bordering - Table formatting code, no incoming links. Probably safe to delete.
*Template:Borehamwood Suburb - Suburb Maps of Borehamwood, probably superseded by other templates. Investigate.
*Template:City - A generalization of Template:Maltonbox, the other cities do not have similar things in place regardless, contact hagnat.
*Template:ComradeOfTalunex - Probably safe to delete.
*Template:Controlled - Some group template to claim ownsership of things. Was removed for NPOV violations. Safe to delete.
*Template:Cpnavigation - Not used on CP, revamp makes it doubly redundant. Safe to delete.
*Template:Current Events - Suffered collateral damage in CP overhaul. Keep to determine possible future use.
*Template:DailyTasks - Was voted to keep in a deletions vote for 'historical purposes', whereupon it remains an orphan. Possible content move to some archive.
*Template:F.C.G. - Group ally template. New enough to keep, unless group goes inactive.
*Template:FF9999 - Table formatting code, no incoming links. Not used in any locationblock. Safe to delete.
*Template:Feral Undead Whittenside Barricade Plan - One of those pointless zombie cade plans. Not used, not needed.
*Template:Helpme - Could be used in future, keep for now.
*Template:HistoricalEventVoting - Cyclical use template, should have an anti-delete notice mayhaps.
*Template:HistoricalGroupVoting - Cyclical use template, should have an anti-delete notice mayhaps.
*Template:HollomstownNews - Worthless. News is reported in a normal fashion now, not using this template. Safe to delete.
*Template:In-Game News - Suffered collateral damage in CP overhaul. Keep to determine possible future use.
*Template:Ine - Some '''if''' template of unknown function since it's not documented, but being unused means there's no need to keep it. Safe to delete.
**Template:Call - Used only in the above, if the above is deleted, this is Safe to Delete.
*Template:Infirmary - Unused locationblock template. Safe to delete.
*Template:InfluenceMapColors/Allied - MOB template. Investigating.
*Template:Influencemap - MOB template. Investigating.
*Template:Info MIB - Looks like some custom locationblock info template, no longer used at any rate. Safe to delete.
*Template:Kittenarian - Plain old unused userbox. Safe to delete.
*Template:LocationMissing - Defunct, any location lacking content these days is cover by Template:locations/stub anyway. Safe to delete.

*Template:MOBattack - MOB template. Investigating.
*Template:MOBruin - MOB template. Investigating.
*Template:MSMConstructionAid - Designed to be subst in the Malton Safety Map, which is a total desert anyway. Technical keep but will probably go when somebody gets around to clearing the whole thing out.

Actually, yet more investigation yields the fact FF takes x-small as 10px, but IE as 10.05px AND IE appears to have a cumulative rounding error problem to boot. 90% would still just about round down but IE thinks otherwise. 85% still seems the best option for getting any level of consistency in this regard.


It appears that main.css defines a font-size of x-small. Then later another class boosts this by 127% (why 127? god knows)

Both browsers appear to take x-small as 10px on default settings. Thus render a default size of 12.7px which gets rounded to 13px. FF appears to get it right at 12.7px. IE likes 12.8px better (rounding error after so many levels?)

Whilst these both round to 13px nominally, it might explain some of differences when applying another layer inline.

For example, an additional value of 90% inline would result in 11.43 for FF, but 11.52 for IE, so FF goes for 11px and IE 12px.

In this case, scaling values can be chosen, but need merely be carefully picked to avoid values that generate these differentiating results.
