→Armageddon: Skill Progression template
==ArmageddonSkill Progression==
You're right that it looks better on the skill page. Unfortunately, on the combined page, it would make it VERY long if they were all like that. I have rolled it back, but hope it doesn't discourage you from helping with other skills! I also changed the formatting of the table, to stick out a little bit less :) --[[User:Leord|Leord]] 18:38, 21 October 2009 (CEST)
::Before I do that, I want to run another idea by you... give me a bit to get the formatting down but I think it will make the information more readable without making the combined pages excessively long. If not, I'll revert it to the horizontal & fix. Cheers [[User:JMJimmy|JMJimmy]] 20:04, 21 October 2009 (CEST)
::I posted a modified version temporarily because you're right - the combined page looked/would have looked terrible. Have you ever considered http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Hidden ? [[User:JMJimmy|JMJimmy]] 20:55, 21 October 2009 (CEST)
Took me a while but I created a dynamic template, it's fairly complex but very easy for users.
http://diablo2.diablowiki.net/Template:Skill_Progression
Basically, all the user needs do is the following:
<pre>
{{Skill Progression
|header=something doesn't matter how long or what is in it
|header2=doesn't matter where header2/header3/etc go in the list so long as they are named
|data1
|data2
|data3
|etc until 20 - if unknown the template does require a blank entry so by example (next 3 lines)
|
|
|
|data8 - this will appear in the 8th skill level slot, 5-7 will get a hyphen, this way people can update as they
find out stats (ie: 1.13 patch or D3)
}}
</pre>
There's no longer a need to enter skill numbers, they're all part of the template. It can also be extended fairly easily. If there are more than 5 headers it won't accept 6 simply because that would end up way off the page just like the horizontal display. Let me know what you think, if you'd prefer it the other way I don't mind, I can revert it no problem. [[User:JMJimmy|JMJimmy]] 02:35, 22 October 2009 (CEST)
