Template talk:Expedition

I almost never use the image at the top of the page, and I usually make the expedition page before I have photos, so I commented out the image at the top to elide the empty image tag that subst:Expedition always leaves. -- Jevanyn 15:10, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

__NOTOC__ ?

why does this default to no toc? my personal opinion is that the toc makes sense in some cases (multiple people reporting) and is not a detraction otherwise. just wondering what the reasoning was. --mykaDragonBlue [- i have no sig -] 12:27, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Improved Expedition template

I've created an improved version of this template (currently found at User:Eldin/template/Expedition) which allows you to specify the contents of various page sections in the template, or omit page sections entirely. My version should be completely compatible with the existing version, by which I mean any template usage which works in the currently existing version should produce identical results in either the existing or my modified version. I would like to eventually replace the existing version with my modified version, but I didn't want to make major changes to such a widely used template without at least having some discussion about it first. --Eldin (talk) 13:52, 27 July 2013 (EDT)

Looks reasonable to me, but I've got a couple of suggestions

• Making the image at the top of the page (sort of) required isn't good, as the template (should) often get used long before the pictures are uploaded.
• The "help" message is very dense, making it hard for me to read. I'd suggest adding a blank line before and after each pair of "turn this section on/off" and "use this text for that section" params to make it more readable.

Other than that, seems good to me. Jiml (talk) 22:28, 28 July 2013 (EDT)
