User talk:Nightname/Bug Log

This is not finished, and all the styles you see here are temporary. I'll create all the templates, and everything else when I have my broadband back.

Does anyone think that site/game test bugs are not that important? - Nightname

Can I edit the colours? :(

Yes you can. Nightname 23:10, 14 February 2012 (EST)

"Reset Button Fudges Events"

That's supposed to happen... When you reset the game, you expect events to disconnect.

Nevermind. I understood it wrong. This is actually a bug. :P

Discussion

We need to be able to discuss a certain bug. Even though the current system looks nice and everything, it is impraticable. Each bug should have an header, so we can access any of them through the table of contents. You should put a level 2 header for every bug category, and every bug has a level 3 category. Then, we could discuss them like on a talk page or idk, and we could also access them through the table of contents.

Without a table of contents, this page will become impossible to navigate after some time. And if we can't discuss bugs, we can't improve the solutions or anything about them either.

That is a good idea, but to tell you the truth - my skills in creating wiki objects is not up to scratch. If you know how to do this, then be my guest and improve it. Nightname 23:10, 14 February 2012 (EST)

Nightname, add a signature on talk pages.

If you want my opinion, you should just make it work exactly like a talk page, and provide a simple template that uses a wikitable to present the bug. Rounded templates with colors and all are nice and everything, but they're impraticable.

"Month-Day-Year is more common than Day-Month-Year (at least in the US), please use the first; added a site bug with a potential solution"

I disagree. And I prefer Day-Month-Year. It's more logical to put the day before the month, because it is a smaller unit of time. I live in the US, and everyone that I know, when using a short date format, uses Day-Month-Year. And it's more logical, anyways.

But, anyways, what we should really do is put the month's name and use a long date format. That gets rid of the confusion.

Oh, really? Everyone I know uses month-day-year. That's strange. Curse these petty differences! Long names, it is.

RE: Hidden banner

Wouldn't adding a z-index be a better solution?

Trappingnoobs (Writer) Have I done something bad? Good? Tell me on my talk page 11:28, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Changing the z-index doesn't seem to do anything. But, just to be sure (because z-index seems fickle to me), increasing the z-index makes it appear on top of things that have lower z-indices?

Making this official, and editing the template

I think its time that we should move this Bug Log into the main wiki, does anyone have any disagreements? However, before doing so - I want someone to edit the template and make it look more aesthetically pleasing. Can you also add some sort of Red/Green square to symbolize if the bug is still active - this way we can archive past bugs - or maybe we can create a separate section for past bugs. Anyway, since I am not an artist - you can change the template colours and design, but try to keep the name, description and date tags. Nightname

Improvements

I made it possible to navigate through the table of contents (trust me, otherwise, this page would have became a real mess in no time) and made it possible to discuss about a bug report (just do it like on a talk page, but without indenting your messages with ":"). If you don't like any of the edits, well, just say it here.

Moving

What about we move this to the article namespace and the template to the template namespace?

I agree, someone should move this to a namespace. Nightname

I wish writers and editors could move pages. It'd allow us to not need to copy/paste, which is actually not recommended as it doesn't keep the history and the logs... :/

Moved it. :)
