Forum:Proposal for character portals: Difference between revisions

::a nay vote, sorry. one, it would make it substantially longer for the relevant pages to load. two, though I know this Wiki has spoilers anyway, it would provide "spoilers at a glance". you'd know who'd live and die without even having read the article. --[[User:Stardizzy2|Stardizzy2]] 17:44, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

:I like the way the individual character portals look, but when I look at the underlying code I see a bit of an issue. The line of code to implement a single character portal works out to <nowiki>{{User:Mr. Garrison/Template:PortalCharacter|image=Donnanoblefacepic.jpg|link=Donna Noble|text=Donna<br>Noble}}</nowiki> and is based off of the <nowiki>Template:PortalCharacter</nowiki> template.  That means for each episode, the editor would need to know the correct image to use for that character's portal.  To make this work easily, there would almost need to be a template created for each character along the lines of <nowiki>{{Template:PortalDonnaNoble}}</nowiki> that would contain the image, link, and text.  So while I definitely think it would really spruce up and improve the visual pop of the articles (while, yes, adding a bit to the load time), implementation would be a serious pain in the tush.  --[[User:Raukodraug|Raukodraug]] 21:32, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

:It also looks seriously weird in Firefox - when I mouse-over any of the image, stray blue lines show up. I'm not in favor. [[User:Monkey with a Gun|Monkey with a Gun]] 01:35, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
