Template talk:Citizen/Archives/2

REDESIGN Summer 2009

Comments moved from eRepublik:Bar/Debate 9

I don't know is this the place to write, but I would like to give this suggestions:

{{Citizen|
  <!-- required --> |
  name= |
  birth= |
  death= | <!--Use only if dead or banned --->
  sex= |

<!--  top= | -->
  national rank= | ***Is this really necessary? I mean, this changes every day. :(
  level= | ***implement level template so when you put the number that automatically switches it to icon which you get on template {{Level}}

  picture= |
  number= | <!-- this is their eRepublik profile number -->

  <!-- positions and terms --> | *** DIVIDE POLITIC POSITIONS FROM MILITARY AND BUSINESS ***
  office1= |
  office_location1= |
  term_begin1= |
  term_end1= |
  predecessor1= |
  successor1= |

  office2= |
  office_location2= |
  term_begin2= |
  term_end2= |
  predecessor2= |
  successor2= |
  ...
  office10= |
  office_location10= |
  term_begin10= |
  term_end10= |
  predecessor10= |
  successor10= |

  <!-- other stuff --> |
  country= | ***change to citizenship***
  party= | <!---no abbreviations--->
  residence= |<!----region--->
  faith= |<!---Approved in game religions only--->

  <!-- military --> |
  military rank= |<!---no abbreviations--->
  army= | <!---no abbreviations--->
}}

I hope that you like this ideas. --AndyCro Click here to talk with me baby! ;) 20:48, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I would like citizenship and residence to be region, country. AgentChieftain has a template redesign so I don't know if we make stop-gap changes to this template to allow for citizenship or do we push Agent to finish the template? --QJ Lincoln Talk To Me 22:24, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

What do we need to finish AC template? Anyway, I suggest reaching a "stable" state ASAP, and the using it as Template:ICitizen, so we can change it without killing the server, and without breaking 50% of the wiki pages. When we think it's stable enough, we can use it as Template:Citizen, and let the nightmare begin --Mini ^"Template" Bill bother me! 09:18, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

MiniBill, check it out, I believe that we could try to implement it ASAP - User:AgentChieftain/Sandbox/Template:Citizen --AndyCro Click here to talk with me baby! ;) 09:37, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

To me it seems ok, but I dunno whether it may be missing something. Anyone does? --Mini ^"Template" Bill bother me! 09:44, 20 September 2009 (UTC)

It has a problem. If you don't fulfill the spouse part, it shows the double brackets in the final design. --by borgesvive 16:16, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

Proposed Update:

I'd like to propose that the template have office1 -> office 15. Not that hard... I just ran out of space on my character article's citizen infobox. Thanks. - General Jameson L. Tai, Commander of the HKSDU ^{talk / HKSDU} 10:12, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

+1 Yeah, I'd support this, if my word means anything. In fact, while you're at it (and if it isn't too troublesome), why not make it 20 (or more)? Was just editing one such user and kept staring at the markup and previewing it, wondering why only half of the stuff I typed were displayed XD. I'm sure that most citizens won't need more than 10, but some of the citizens who actively stay with us for a year or more easily rack up a load of positions. Would be nice to be able to fully catalogue long term players, rather than just selecting the most significant positions held. --~Laurana "Psi"~ (My Whiteboard) 18:49, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

This just happened to me as well. I remember this has been discussed before, I just can't find those messages. :/ -- Kuhaa|sTalk to me! 08:43, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

So... Can someone suggest this and if necessary, take a vote in the Bar? - General Jameson L. Tai ^talk / _{Commander of the HKSDU} 10:02, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Working on it

I'm starting to port the "new" templates to the main namespace. I'll first make some test with existing pages, to see if it works. Then I'll replace Template:ICitizen with the new one, and check the pages using it. Then, when I'm satisfied (this won't happen before a couple of days, so bugs have the time to be spotted) I'll kill the JQ, and replate Template:Citizen --Mini ^"Template" Bill bother me! 08:46, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
