Template edits

Hello Wikiinger, I see you made edits to a bunch of Radeon graphics card templates. Thanks for the work. May I make one minor suggestion. As templates are often used across multiple articles, maybe rather than removing the API support (which may or may not be in the articles), summarize it to a footnote of the article. Thoughts? Thanks for the hard work. Dbsseven (talk) 23:11, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, for the kind words. Regarding the API, would you mind responding here:Talk:List of AMD graphics processing units#Dropping API column (This way the discussion takes place in a central place and transparent to the other users). Then I will also respond to your suggestion. :-) Wikiinger (talk) 23:33, 16 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I see you have also turned the Ryzen templates upside down. Would you mind explaining why, when other processor table templates have the higher end products at the top and the entry level components at the bottom? 83.104.249.240 (talk) 19:42, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Because they don't??? see List of AMD accelerated processing unit microprocessors, List of AMD FX microprocessors, List of AMD graphics processing units, etc ... Wikiinger (talk) 13:08, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You haven't done the job properly though. You just moved, for example, the Ryzen 3 block above the Ryzen 5 block. The individual SKUs in each block are still in the original order. So, for example, the R3 1200 is below the R3 1300X when it ought to be at the very top of the table. So now it looks a mess. In case you suggest I fix it myself, my answer is that I would prefer to revert it to how it was before. It would then be in line with the equivalent templates for the various Intel processor families and there are more of those than AMD ones. 83.104.249.240 (talk) 17:55, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Meanwhile the two Epyc templates are unchanged with the more capable products at the top. 83.104.249.240 (talk) 19:31, 16 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well, it is Wikipedia - the wiki that anyone can edit! (hint, hint) ... Wikiinger (talk) 17:34, 17 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No. I said my preference would be to revert but I can't due to other edits that have been made since yours. Any change has to be done manually and I can't be bothered to spend the time and care necessary. I don't enjoy editing tables. 83.104.249.240 (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Template:AMD custom APU

Recently a Zen based custom APU has been added to the template, which IMO when looking at the template name is alright. However it causes conflict with one of the editors of the Jaguar article, who reverted the Zen APU twice. — Pizzahut2 (talk) 23:51, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Opened a discussion section here: Template talk:AMD custom APU#Edit conflict due to non-Jaguar custom APUs — Pizzahut2 (talk) 00:16, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Floating navbar

Disadvantage is that a table might not use the full width of a page, in which case the navbar isn't attached to the table. Template:AMD Epyc 3000 series is relatively slim so it can be used for testing.--Pizzahut2 (talk) 16:39, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also when trying to attach the navbar to the right border of the table, it will be out of sight if the right side of the table doesn't fit into the browser window.--Pizzahut2 (talk) 18:47, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

How about this, no navbar in the articles, but a link which is only visible when viewing the template?

--Pizzahut2 (talk) 19:54, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Kinda different issues...
  1. The visual edit never worked for me. However I like the idea to display the visual edit only on the template page. However the V.T.E should be accessible (but subtle) on the article page since it is really handy.
  2. About the floating navbar. I guess there should be some CSS vodoo to align it with the right side of the table? Another possibility might be to create an empty white row and place the navbar in there?
PS: I would prefer to have these discussion on the article page (best candidate is List_of_AMD_graphics_processing_units), since this way other editors can chime in. Wikiinger (talk) 20:33, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Added discussion there.--Pizzahut2 (talk) 12:19, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"The visual edit never worked for me." - Did you disable the new wikitext mode when you tried? "Automatically enable all new beta features" must be disabled as well, else disabling anything doesn't have an effect. And clicking this link still doesn't work then? Maybe it depends on the browser. Officially, the VE is meant to be disabled for templates, thus there's just an "edit source" link at top.--Pizzahut2 (talk) 20:08, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

<br>

Ok, sorry, but <br> is a uncommon-using template? Maybe this form will be able to broke some functionality or something else? Sorry for my non-compitency question. 95.154.157.20 (talk) 23:13, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The reason is mentioned here: WP:LINEBREAK, e.g.:
"While forms without the / (such as <br> and <br >) will work properly in the rendered page, they break several of the available syntax highlighters for wikicode in the editing view, and so should be avoided. Please correct occurrences to <br /> as you encounter them, though preferably as a part of a more substantive edit."
hth. Wikiinger (talk) 16:29, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Greatly thanks. Maybe i will now use clear <br> on my personal testing pages only (because <br /> sometimes broke some of my personal scripts works.)

Also, unpretending offtopic request: can you help me to update, moderate or give a mention advice about this template (here a test page with working template)?95.154.157.20 (talk) 18:11, 26 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, can't help you there. You can try WP:IRCHELP. Wikiinger (talk) 17:15, 27 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Anyway, thanks for all tips! 95.154.157.20 (talk) 03:27, 2 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]


<br /> is not anyhow related to PHP7. It's an remnant of an old XHTML that was in use sometime ago. But now it's HTML5. It doesn't break anything. At least no examples are given. That's a standard. With HTML5 <br /> is acceptable, but now preferred. Elk Salmon (talk) 09:17, 21 June 2019 (UTC
Who said it is related to PHP7? Anyhow the "br" discussion is an ever ongoing discussion, in addition to WP:LINEBREAK see also WP:Village_pump_(technical)#Editing_formatting_bar_break_code. To me it doesn't look like WP will reach a consensus soon. So I'd suggest to leave it in the articles just as it is or sticking to WP:LINEBREAK. Wikiinger (talk) 09:50, 21 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
