formatting

I just reverted an anon change to put this table on the right. Maybe that's appropriate, if it's right underneath our main wiki template, but the way I'm visioning this right now, it'll be at the very bottom of the page, and centered. Of course this can change. Please discuss when changing again. Thanks! TedErnst

All comments on formatting welcome, including placement on the page. Should it be right-justified under the Wiki template? or centered like now? TedErnst | talk 19:28, 10 Mar 2006 (EST)

Since it overlaps the main template box on small screens when centered, I moved it to the left today. TedErnst | talk 17:23, 13 Mar 2006 (EST)

Why not use the same formatting as template:wiki, with the size template designed to go below the wiki template on the right side of the page? User:BlankVerse | talk 23:09, 29 Mar 2006 (EST)

Could some skilled person please apply this template somehow into this? I tried but it didn't work. – Smiddle/TC@ 15:46, 20 May 2007 (EDT)

Do you like it raw?

When providing a link to a wiki's statistics, is the raw count preferred, or the more user-friendly version? Obviously, it's up to the editor's discretion, but is there any advantage to providing the raw statistics without the accompanying explanations? --MarvelZuvembie 16:16, 6 October 2008 (EDT)

Raw is good for MediaWikis in rarely spoken languages i.e. Chinese, because raw is in "SimpleEnglish". --Wolf | talk 06:25, 21 December 2008 (EST)

wikiFactor

Hello folks, trying to leave a comment in the correct place - I would like the wikiFactor above the number of pages, both for aesthetics and because it is cool! Please point me to any discussion of this. Best, MarkDilley

I've found your original ping (at Template talk:WikiFactorCatText). The idea is very new (cool indeed). Let's give it a try. It's still open, if the value of wikiFactor can be understood easily (is it a criterion of quality, importance, "inner" size ?). In a few day we know more about that. I want to make a graph then with the first about 50 samples. So help with adding some more factors! ;-) Greetings --Wolf | talk 04:27, 27 March 2009 (EDT)

Cool! Saw the proposal about moving this into a new updated Wiki template - sounds great! I want to also think about throwing the parameter of the size of the wikiFactor into the template, so that on the category page, they are ordered by size and not alphabetically. Best, MarkDilley

I agree; I think ordering by size is indeed more useful than by the wiki name. -- Carl McBride (talk) 06:53, 14 April 2009 (EDT)
