Page status template
Can someone change this template to an Infobox?
Issues:
- It's Useless (Philippe: It is actually not useless.... there are a number of things dependent upon it.)
- It's Ugly
- hard to fill or edit (resolved. Thanks)
- Always takes about 40% of page. Unlike info-box.
- When the forth parameter is turned on, the forth priority turns into a long sentence:
- "Ensure that the underlying project infrastructure is secure, stable, and sufficient to guarantee the permanence of the projects and support ongoing growth".
- The current statements are not so clear.
- Like: focus on quality conent. if the proposal ssatisfies two priorities, it's not a "focus".
- There is no link to give a separate understanding. all linke go to movement priorities.
- Like: there is no good link to what quality content is. does it mean featured and good articles, books, ...? I studied for 30 hours (most interviews, case studies, illustrations, theory of change, articles in "quality part of wikimedia-pedia) to find out what that is. people have really different opinions.
- When in the page, pictures for first paragraph behave bad:
- The thumbnails and non thumbnails push the table of content forward, instead of pushing it down. like: here
- The right aligned pictures like [[File:Example.jpg|left|75px]] falls over the table of contents!
It is actually not useless.... there are a number of things dependent upon it. I'm sorry you're having problems with it... do you have some usability suggestions?
Suggestions: I've drawn a better one. I tried to edit the template (2.5 hours honestly), but those codes are so hard to understand and edit. gotta go. I'll answer later.
It's a good one. but I have a side-box here
Benefits
- everyone will like it
- colored background! blue is cool
- narrow width
- not as long as it looks here.
My suggestion:
