One of Fnoodle's growing number of functions is {{VFH}} tag maintenance. If he spots an article on VFH without a tag, he adds it, and if he finds a tagged article that shouldn't be, he removes it. Simple enough.

But this got me wondering: should he add the tags at the beginning of the article, or the end? At the moment he adds them at the end, but I've seen a lot of articles with {{VFH}} at the top, so... what do you guys prefer, top or bottom? – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 06:26 Jun 05, 2011

End used to be the norm, but now it's the top. Lot more noticeable that way. Plus, if he puts it at the end, it could go after categories and other templates, which is wrong. -- T​K​F​​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​UU​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​U​CK 06:43, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Yes at the top is better in the aspect that people will realise its nominated and are likely to read it and cast a vote. -- Frosty dah snowguy contribs GUN PLEB 06:46, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Aye, and I usually put them at the top, as well... that said, it's not like people can't add it themselves if they want it at the bottom. 1234 ~ 07:25, 5 June 2011

Well, that was easy. Changed Fnoodle so he adds templates at the top now. I think. – Sir Skullthumper, MD (criticize • writings • critchat) 16:06 Jun 05, 2011
