FYI, I expect the problem you've noted on [[User talk:Bongolium500]] is because of a recent update to Fandom's software breaking the "Preview" button. (You can see this in our regular character infoboxes, where a bunch of fields are un-centered or otherwise broken in the "Preview" view.) If you set up the template properly and hit "save" – as I just did on [[Twelfth Doctor (Shadow World)]] – it'll load correctly. – [[User:NateBumber|n8]] ([[User talk:NateBumber|☎]]) 01:57, 26 June 2022 (UTC) | FYI, I expect the problem you've noted on [[User talk:Bongolium500]] is because of a recent update to Fandom's software breaking the "Preview" button.

: That's definitely an odd issue that I've never encountered but I think I know what it is and how to fix it. Fandom has a few different editors and, while I use the 2010 editor, I'm pretty certain you use the 2017 editor (also known as visual editor - source mode). What I think the issue is that the 2017 editor uses a different parser (the bit of software that converts wikitext to the actual webpage you view) for it's preview mode than the 2010 editor (which uses the same parser as is used to actually produce the finished webpage). Therefore, I think you can fix your issue by going to [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing|the edit tab of Special:Preferences]] and switching your preferred editor from "visual editor - source mode" to "source editor" and making sure that "Enable the editing tool bar" is ticked. The next time you edit, there will be some noticeable differences, the biggest probably being page previews appearing above the edit box rather than as a pop-up window, but I don't think the changes would be too hard to get used to. Let me know if that fixes the issue. [[User:Bongolium500|<span title="aka Bongolium500">Bongo50</span>]] [[User talk:Bongolium500|<span title="talk to me">☎</span>]] 10:27, 26 June 2022 (UTC) | |||
