Split Template

  • This template has always kind of bugged me (and yes, I know I made it). It's freaking huge. What do y'all think about splitting it? I can imagine a couple options: 1) Just move the graphic novel people to their own template or 2) Make separate series bars for directors, writers, producers, and artists. Option #1 doesn't save much space, but would be easy to use. Option #2 is probably clearer, but a lot of people would have two or more bars. Of course, there's always option #3: steal Lostpedia's two-column version, which looks less cluttered.--Hardvice (talk) 13:47, 5 December 2006 (EST)

Variable crew bar

Good job on the variables, it works great, can the graphic novel crew bar, be merged with this? -Lөvөl 13:46, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

New variables

Okay, this behemoth was just getting way too out of hand, and we're not even done with the first season. Granted, there won't be too many new faces in the crew in the coming seasons, but I don't think I'm alone in feeling the bar was approaching becoming taller than it is wide.

Cut to the chase--if a crew member is added, their "job" should be added (art=true or director=true, for example). Multiple hats can be added (see Tim Kring). The word that is added does not have to be "true"--you can add "monkey butts" and it will still work. I used the word "true" on all the others, though, just for consistency. Hopefully that gives us some wiggle room if we need to change anything down the line.

New crew members should not be added to this page, they should be added to template:art, template:director, template:writer, template:producer, or template:other.

Essentially, we can even incorporate the GN bar into this bar if we wanted. It would certainly clean up guys like Chuck Kim and Mark Warshaw who work on the episodes and the GNs. The guys (and gals) that are just GN-workers (Jason Badower, Peter Steigerwald, etc.) can stay as they are. Those that are both can have one bar. If this is something we want, it would just take a little finagling. If we like the separate bars, that's fine too. Personally, I'd opt for one slightly larger bar (it'd only be a handful of GN writers that would have an extra row that says "Graphic Novel Writers").

And there you have it. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:46, 16 May 2007 (EDT)

  • This is pretty fantastic. I actually think we should use this in place of GNcrew as well, even on GN-only folks. Take a look at Jason Badower for a what it would look like on GN-only crew.--Hardvice (talk) 17:33, 16 May 2007 (EDT)
