The New Template

I think it should be like this:

The Uzi Submachine gun has appeared in the following:'

Film

The new template as created by PhoenixEnt

Used by While Playing In the movie Date of film
Laurence Fishburne Jimmy Jump King of New York 1990

Television

Actor Character Show Title / Episode Air Date
Joe Flanigan Lt. Col. John Sheppard Stargate Atlantis 2004 - 2009

Anime

Character Film Title Date
Nadie El Cazador de la Bruja 2007 -
Several Characters Black Lagoon 2006
Kai Miyagusuku Blood+ 2005 - 2006

Video Games

Game Title Mods Release Date
Call of Duty: World at War 2008
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots Can be unlocked via password 2008
Combat Arms 2008

And if it's a televison show it should be "In the Television Show"

And if it's a Video Game it should be "In the Video Game"

And the same applies to the "Date of Film/Televison Show/ Video Game".

What do you guys think?-Oliveira 21:20, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Actually, we could just say "Title", and that would work just as well. Other than that, I think the columns as MPM has named them work best. Of course, the first two columns would simply be excised from any video game page. Remember, we want it to be as simple and easy to standardize as possible. -MT2008 21:31, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I wanted the templates to be more specific. The two columms would be exercised from video game pages though which is why this template isn't perfect. I still think the more specific version is better.-Oliveira 21:40, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I dunno, I just don't see much advantage to being so specific. Whereas I worry that some users will ignore the format if they try making new pages (it sounds unbelievable, I know, but people really can be lazy when it comes to following page conventions - look how many people I've had to tell to either use gun page links on their movie pages, or not put the gun page links in the heading). -MT2008 21:48, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Users ignoring page formats is always worrying. I like being specific. I always specific in my life. The template being specific makes it look more professional.-Oliveira 21:58, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I'll be sure to give this a try next time I make a gun page. I'm not a huge fan of change though, but this definately looks more professional than before. Oh, and looking at how to do this, I think I'll have to copy and paste from this page, because I can't remember all that greek. There isn't anyway this could be turned into an actual template, is there? - Gunmaster45
I think there is but i'm not sure.-Oliveira 22:14, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
I added the set up for TV, Anime and Video Games. I think the a notes column needs to be added but I am not sure were to place it. -Steve
Mods? I don't get it.-Oliveira 22:25, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Mods are modification or upgrades used during the game play or unlocked during the game. -Steve
