Template talk:Ibspinoff
From YTMND
its not that 5 is enough, its that 5 are too much. - Ollj
- This could be useable both if you need 1-4 spinoffs and 5+ spinoffs. Handy.--Unsigned comment, left by Smiddle
- exactly, really handy for when you need less than 5 spinoff sites--Unsigned comment, left by Mikeycomicsinc
- So modify Template:Fad infobox to hide unused spinoff bulletpoints (this is Mediawiki; see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Parser_functions). And 5 is plenty. The objective is to give examples of good YTMNDs within the fad. Historically significant YTMNDs, whether on the list or not, whether qualifying for the list or not, should be linked to AND described (in case it is deleted) in the main article.Roothorick 05:29, January 27, 2009 (CST)
- And thus I show my noobie stripes. Parserfunctions aren't enabled on this wiki. Having them would let us use a much cleaner code in-page. For example, instead of: (taken from Nigga Stole My Bike, nowiki tags eaten because we don't have <source> either here):
{{ibs|Nigga Stole My Bike!!!}} {{ibimage|Stolemybike.jpg}} {{iboriginal|mybike|Nigga Stole My Bike!!!}} {{ibprofile|Duezce|Duezce}} {{ibdate|July 2004|July 25, 2004}} {{ibspinoffs |spinoff1=niggastolemybike |title1=Nigga stole my bike, Punch-Out remix. |spinoff2=nsmbreal |title2=Nigga Stole My Bike: The Live Action Movie |spinoff3=pianist |title3=YTMND pianist: NSMB |spinoff4=nsconanb |title4=Nigga stole Conan's bike |spinoff5=speederbike |title5=Nigga Stole My Speeder Bike }} {{ibptkfgs |title=Spic stole my bike!

We would have:

Perhaps with different field names here and there. Your call; it seems worthwhile to me since installation is a cinch.Roothorick 06:58, January 27, 2009 (CST)
- I just today found {{if}}. Maybe we don't need parserfunctions after all. Will investigate.Roothorick 10:26, January 29, 2009 (CST)
- Take a wild guess as to what happened.Roothorick 20:04, February 1, 2009 (CST)
