Help talk:Templates

Made a first attempt at organizing them here. --barto (talk) (contribs) 14:20, 14 November 2017 (EST)

Possible improvements: Not exhaustive. --barto (talk) (contribs) 14:54, 14 November 2017 (EST)
 * Expand the scope of incoming links to all pages with wrong incoming links.
 * Clarify the scope of WIP: should it mean that it is incomplete in a severe way, e.g. only half of a definition? Or inuse?
 * Clarify stub, difference with WIP if any, perhaps disuse because it carries the meaning of "too short", while short is our standard.
 * More meaningful names for improve and rewrite, e.g. inelegant or improve argument resp. improve style.
 * Merge duplicate with mergeto?
 * Perhaps discourage using tidy and work to do, something more specific instead.
 * More meaningful name for help, e.g. expert needed


 * Eliminated WIP. Stub and wtd should do the job. &mdash; Lord_Farin (talk) 17:19, 15 November 2017 (EST)

Design
Proposed design at Template:Ambox, draft work and more examples at User:Barto/tpl/ambox/core. Borrowed the WMF style because I didn't see the need to spend time creating a new one. --barto (talk) (contribs) 08:24, 18 November 2017 (EST)
