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 |
The layouts below are the type being used at this time on several pages. It will be the standard layout for now. The Note spacing has been increased. -Phoenixent
| Actor | Character | Title | Note | Date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laurence Fishburne | Jimmy Jump | King of New York | Satin Nickel | 1990 |
Television
| Actor | Character | Show Title / Episode | Note | Air Date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Joe Flanigan | Lt. Col. John Sheppard | Stargate Atlantis | 2004 - 2009 |
Anime
| Character | Film Title | Note | 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 television 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/Television 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 columns 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)
- More like 1911 changing to a hi-cap 1911 as in Godfather.-Steve
- Like upgrades then? I'm sorry but i'm being annoying aren't i?-Oliveira 22:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- Exactly like an upgrade, No problem on the questions it all new to this layout. -Steve
- Thank you for not thinking that i am annoying. I can see how being specific can complicate things however.-Oliveira 22:53, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- Like upgrades then? I'm sorry but i'm being annoying aren't i?-Oliveira 22:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
- OK, I think I like the way this is shaping up a bit better. The only thing I would recommend is that we widen the "Note" column a bit more. For instance, on the Calico page, the "Note" column would say "as the M1-L1 Triple Pulse rifle" for the movie Deep Rising. As the column is now, it would be a bit too narrow to fit that text in. -MT2008 02:12, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- What is Satin Nickel?-Oliveira 16:21, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- Jesus, Satin guns are really ugly. They are really cheap looking. Anyway, i think the templates should be more specific. Like the ones in the Daewoo K3 Page. Instead of Satin Nickel it should be the "The Gun was painted with Satin Nickel.".-Oliveira 17:02, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
- Now you're getting annoying ;) No one PAINTS a gun with satin nickel. Satin nickel is an accepted finish, like bright nickel, stainless steel, parkerized, blued, matte blued, etc. And the opinion that a gun is ugly simply because it has a satin nickel finish is purely in the eye of the beholder MPM
