Please don't add line breaks when adding includeonly and noinclude to templates (except INSIDE the noinclude), it breaks some templates. --Splaka 03:35, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

I'm assuming that you mean the <br> tag? I'll refrain from editing any templates until you clarify that for me. --Xoid 07:20, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

No, just linebreaks in the wikicode break it. For example, this version of Template:User screwed it up as multiple wikicode linebreaks are rendered as html linebreaks (<p><br /></p>). The solution is to move the <noinclude> and <includeonly> up to the same line (although linebreaks inside the noinclude are ok, as they are not included)... See the working version of Template:User. Basically, it is best not to introduce more linebreaks into a template unless you know what the effect will be. --Splaka 07:38, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Seems like wikicode, while looking like HTML, is no where near as forgiving with its syntax. I'll bear that in mind. Thanks for the info --Xoid 07:56, 20 March 2006 (UTC)

Splarka, Assuming you still have my talk page on your watchlist, I thought I might as well get confirmation that my edit to Template:Blanker didn't fuck anything up. For clarification, should the <includeonly>...included stuff...</includeonly> start on the same line as the end of the template, like so:

 <div ...>blah blah blah
 blah blah blah
 blah [[blah]] blah
 blah</div><br clear="all" /><includeonly>[[Category:blah]]</includeonly><noinclude>
 blah blah blah</noinclude>
 

Or would this be acceptable:

 <div ...>blah blah blah
 blah blah blah
 blah [[blah]] blah
 blah</div><br clear="all" />
 <includeonly>[[Category:blah]]</includeonly><noinclude>
 blah blah blah</noinclude>
 

I want clarification on this because while from what you've told me, I'm sure the former will work, I've seen more than a few templates use the latter style. But I don't want to make meaningless edits. Xoid 04:21, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Should work either way. Although if the template is meant to be used inline (like Template:Monster), probably best to keep all the stuff on one line (excluding line breaks in noinclude). --Splaka 04:36, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Signatures, above and beyond

So, it's me again... This time it's two little know-hows about sigs.

1. You've left a little bit of a mess on my talk page. Here's what the code of your sig looked like:

   —[[User:Xoid|Xoid]] <small>([[Order_of_Uncyclopedia#Member (MUN)|MUN]] [[Uncyclopedia:Folding@home|F@H]] [[User_talk:Xoid|Talk]])</small> 16:07, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

   To correct the problem, put as your nickname in your preferences {{nosubst|User:Xoid/sig}}. That way you will counter-act one of Mediawiki's latest feature, namely adding SUBST to raw signatures (you'll see it happen after you've saved your changes). For more information on this matter, read this.
2. On my talk page, you left a reddy... This got me somewhat intrigued and so I did some research. Eventually I found the wiki (which is hosted independently of wikia) and had a little look at what you were doing over there. Seems your quite a lovable "nubis", ain't ya? Anyways, allow me to awe them some more with your knowledge of wikiness. In particular, woo court impress Mia Kristos... Tell her to replace her sig-code with the following:

   <span class="plainlinks">[http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/User:Mia_Kristos http://amusing.soul-fantasy.net/miasig.gif]</span><sup>('''[[User:Mia_Kristos|info]]''') ('''[[User_talk:Mia_Kristos|talk]]''')

   That way, her image will link to her user page, instead of just sit there... She might want to remove or replace the info-link, but I'll leave that up to her.

There we have it... That's all I had to say on signatures for now. Take care and have a good one! --~ sin($) ^tan(€) 23:00, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

You are a lesbian?!

Hello, we have never met before. 2 minutes ago I was at another user's page and it said that she was a lesbian, the word "lesbian" was in bold, blue letters so I clicked on it and it brang me to a different article. The article was a list that listed people who were lesbians and you were on it. Correct me if I'm wrong but are you actually a lesbian (I find it strange because I have never met a real lesbian in my home, Hawaii)?! Salacious 20:00, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Bwahaha. No, I'm not. Men can't be lesbians. God only knows what the fuck happened for my name to end up in a list of lesbians… thank you for bringing it to my attention though, you just brightened my day. —Xoid (MUN F@H Talk) 03:17, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
