Template talk:Suite

Visibility

If I may, should this not be formatted in such a way that would draw the reader's attention, more or less scream, "There's more content"? The little grey box is a bit hard to find, especially for a casual user. Soxxeh 7:31am, December 24, 2011 (UTC)

If you want to run some tests on your personal css, you're more than welcome. On the other hand, this is the basic format that's been used on the Transformers wiki for basically forever, and they've had no troubles with it. Basically, if you want to jazz it up some go ahead, but my main concern is that the actual lead of the article should still be visible when you open the article."We're werewolves, not swearwolves."

What about something like this, as seen [[here? --Neumannz, The Dark Falcon 18:15, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

That solves the concern of keeping the lead visible, but...dude, that thing is aggressively painful to the eyes. Seriously though, just test things out in the css, take a screenshot."We're werewolves, not swearwolves." (KrytenKoro) 20:19, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

What I cooked up: (Keep in mind that it only shows the "Suite" tab. If there was Game:Suite, or Quotes:Suite, or Card:Suite, those would show also.)

Suite

Another example:

Additionally, if we had a Suite/Suite page, it would exclude anything else and read only data from there (in the form Label1/Link1/Label2/Link2/.../Label9/Link9). Thoughts?

I like the look of the tabs, but would you mind explaining the Suite/Suite page part? I don't really understand what you mean. -- AS IF! 23:06, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Well in terms of the Zack page, it would be Zack/Suite. That page would just contain a list of links and labels for the tabs. Let's say, in the example of Maleficent, we wanted a separate page for Dragon and Boss. The Maleficent/Suite page would be: Dragon Form/Maleficent (Dragon)/Human Form/Maleficent (Boss)/Cards/Card:Maleficent/Quotes/Quotes:Maleficent. Those descriptions could be different, but that's just an example. Soxxeh 23:15, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Ooh. I feel like if you could make it so that those pages showed up in the suite tabs, that would be better than just having another page with all the links on it. If you do have to make one, I suggest changing the name on the tab, so that it says "More...". That way the reader knows that it links to more information about the article in question, rather than have him/her be confused by what a "Suite" is. -- AS IF! 23:23, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

You misunderstood, and I don't blame you; this is really hard to understand without an example. But I can't create one without actually accessing the mainspace. What I'm trying to say is that the Maleficent/Suite page content will generate the tabs on the normal pages. So in the above example, there would be the default "Maleficent" tab, then a "Dragon Form" tab that linked to Maleficent (Dragon), and so on. Soxxeh 23:28, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
