:Okay, this is a matter of opinion. Yet I don't think your vote is valid. The only reason you gave is that with the information in the infobox, we can link to those appearances. But we could do exactly the same if we removed that kind of info (''from the infobox''). In no way do I propose to get rid of the links, so your reasoning doesn't really fit to what I'm proposing. {{User|Time Q}} | :Okay, this is a matter of opinion. Yet I don't think your vote is valid.

===Table Button On Editing Screen=== | |||
<span style="color:blue;font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:150%">CANCELLED</span> | |||
You know that making tables is a hard thing to do? Well, I was thinking on that bar on the top of the edit screen? I think that we should add a table button to this, so when clicked, a box will pop up like the one in Microsoft Word, and you can choose how many rows and columns. Then the table appears in the edit box, and all you have to do is change the colour and content. Easy as pie (although not the Pie Button!) I beleive this will save ages trying to remember how to make a table, and new users will find this helpful for their first contributions. | |||

====Support==== | |||
#[[User:LucariosAura|LucariosAura (used to be specialk)]] 13:30, 22 February 2010 (EST) | |||
#{{User|MATEOELBACAN}} Per Proposal, of course! | |||
#{{User|Mr bones}} Per proposal.It will be very helpful. | |||
#{{User|Zero777}} I am Zero! I usually copy paste a table but this idea is more better. Zero signing out. | |||
====Oppose==== | |||
#{{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} Sorry, but until we figure out a way we can implement the table button into the appropriate section, I will be forced to oppose. | |||
#{{User|Time Q}}: Seems like we can't implement that. (Maybe we should remove the proposal then...) | |||
#{{user|Tucayo}} - Per Time Q. And yes, I think we should... | |||
#{{User|KS3}} I'm afraid that as well as this is good, (stupid) microsoft can't find out a way to make this work, so I will have to oppose. PS: Microsoft doesn't have the money to make it because we are in a economic crisis. | |||
#{{User|Fawfulfury65}} What's wrong with just copying and pasting an already existing table and fixing it up to match the correct topic? This seem pretty worthless to me. Anyway, per all. | |||
#{{User|T.c.w7468}} Per all, I don't think it is possible, or practical if it is. | |||
#{{User|Walkazo}} - Per all. Also, if it really is impossible to implement a table button, it would probably be best to archive the proposal as "cancelled". | |||
#{{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} - When I start to doubt the proposal when no votes where above, everyone suddenly came. Per my reasons I kind of stated in the comments and the fact that I don't think it would work out. | |||
#{{user|Coincollector}} - It's a pity that this proposal cannot be carried out as we have a downgraded version of the mediawiki that doesn't support this means... :[ | |||
====Comments==== | |||
This would surely be helpful, but I doubt it's realizable technically. {{User|Time Q}} | |||
:Yeah, it would be a good idea, but how would we implement this into the edit page? {{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} | |||
WikEd has a button to create tables, it inserts the coding and you change it to your liking :) {{user|Tucayo}} | |||
The "Not Pie Button" section reminds me of the Virtual Pie for Everyone proposal. {{User|KS3}} | |||
:Couldn't you just insert the coding on your own? It's what I do and I like it much better as it's much easier to use a preformatted template than doing it on your own. This is sounding a little bit too much like wikia's wikicoding beta for my liking - that's one of the reasons I left wikia. Another option is to copy/paste - that's what I do for the longer templates. {{User|Marioguy1}} | |||
::I don't like having to resort to look somewhere else to copy and paste the table. And I'm still confused at this process, even I've been here for a while. {{User|BabyLuigiOnFire}} | |||
How the heck will the sysops implement this? You can't just say "Abra, Kadabra, Alakazam" and expect everything to work for you. {{User|Reversinator}} | |||
KS3 that is exactly what i was thinking when I put that! Baby Luigi on fire I agree, my current method is copy/pasteing, and it is very hard. and reversinator I was hoping a Sysop would edit the edit bar to make a table button. What else would I mean?

:I'm fairly certain that {{User|Porplemontage}} would have to edit some files in the database to make this work. That's the only way this would work. -- {{User|Stooben Rooben}} | |||
::Some questions that should be answered if we do this. 1 - For the button, wouldn't you have diffulty with more typing when it gives you the basics for it, and you need like 60 sections or something? 2 - Most users cut and paste for templates too, and they are like tables. 3 - Also, there are different versions of tables (like [[Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story|this one used here]] and [[List of Tayce T. Recipes/By Ingredient|this other one]].), we can't have many buttons for the varied tables. That is about what I have to say. {{User|Baby Mario Bloops}} | |||
:::Remember this wont be obligatory to use, people would be able to make the tables they want by inserting the coding themselves, this is for people who just want a basic table. {{user|Tucayo}} | |||
::: @BMB After you click the table button then a window pops up saying what kind of table you want. Then the number of columns and rows you want window appears and you choose how many columns and rows. Then the exact table you imputed into the windows will appear. {{User|KS3}} | |||
::::Good summery KS3! [[User:LucariosAura|LucariosAura (used to be specialk)]] 11:08, 25 February 2010 (EST) | |||
:::I checked [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:Table_extensions here] and didn't find ''any'' extensions that could do anything like that. And the one extension that I found that could make a very simple type of table isn't even compatible with our version of MediaWiki. -- {{User|Stooben Rooben}} | |||
::::That's pretty sad. >__> {{User|MechaWave}} | |||
:::::Ok. I hope that some day someone will make an upgrade we can use on our beloved wiki for mario. ;-( [[User:LucariosAura|LucariosAura (used to be specialk)]] 05:15, 27 February 2010 (EST) | |||
