Revision as of 19:59, 12 October 2009

If you're here to respond to a comment I posted on your talk page, feel free to reply on your talk page so the question and answer are together. I tend to watch talk pages I've posted comments to for a few weeks after my initial post. If you leave me a message, I'll respond here unless you ask me to reply somewhere else. --Risker (talk) 00:15, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Beware! This user's talk page is monitored by talk page watchers. Some of them even talk back.

Useful things for me to remember or I will never find them again, plus archive links

Column-generating template families

The templates listed here are not interchangeable. For example, using {{col-float}} with {{col-end}} instead of {{col-float-end}} would leave a <div>...</div> open, potentially harming any subsequent formatting.

Column templates
Type Family Handles wiki
table code? Responsive/
mobile suited Start template Column divider End template

Float "col-float" Yes Yes {{col-float}} {{col-float-break}} {{col-float-end}}

"columns-start" Yes Yes {{columns-start}} {{column}} {{columns-end}}

Columns "div col" Yes Yes {{div col}} – {{div col end}}

"columns-list" No Yes {{columns-list}} (wraps div col) – –

Flexbox "flex columns" No Yes {{flex columns}} – –

Table "col" Yes No {{col-begin}},
{{col-begin-fixed}} or
{{col-begin-small}} {{col-break}} or
{{col-2}} .. {{col-5}} {{col-end}}

Can template handle the basic wiki markup {| | || |- |} used to create tables? If not, special templates that produce these elements (such as {{(!}}, {{!}}, {{!!}}, {{!-}}, {{!)}})—or HTML tags (<table>...</table>, <tr>...</tr>, etc.)—need to be used instead.

My talk page is also my "to-do" list

No really, I do read all my messages in a timely manner. I also archive fairly regularly once the subject of the message has been resolved. I keep things on my talk page until they've been addressed, so stuff tends to be out of date order. Consider the top half of this page my to-do list. Some things just take time.

Break
A former arbitrator told me once that too much dispute resolution was soul-destroying. I'm going to be spending a short time clearing off my real-world desks and replenishing my soul, soothing my hopeful heart. I'd started to this a few weeks ago and got rudely interrupted, so I'm going to try this again. It may take me a while to respond to any messages left here, and the same for any emails.

Those are very nice lyrics, Risker. I keep The Paradoxical Commandments next to my computer, in plain sight, for days such as these. Enjoy your well deserved break. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:51, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Do take the well deserved break

Hi Risker, you really don't know me but I got brought here following some difs, not important at this time. You have a thankless job being both an administrator and also an arbitrator. Definitely take the wikibreak and stay away from here. It is good to spend some time away, I myself just did this recently. I don't expect an answer so don't worry. Go enjoy! :) --CrohnieGal 19:28, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

RS/N comment about Life University situation

Requesting a copyedit

I'm working up an article in my userspace. It's not quite finished yet (I'm planning, perhaps, 250-300 more words), but I'd appreciate if you'd take your prettifying brush to it at some point. Unit Anode 19:59, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
