Logging in

No time to log in, sorry. Text was written at home.
ssg
That's no excuse. You can type "~~~~" into your home-made text. Then log in, edit, and paste your stuff.
Every "~~~~" will be replaced with a correct signature (user name, hyperlink, time and date).
You may have to log in some time soon, since we have confirmed spam and I'm not too hot for manual reverts.

After reading your little roman :p , I'd suggest the following things:
ssg
They're called "novels" in English. No one knows why.
geyser 16:43, 21 November 2006 (CET)
That's it. Can I start now? Yes or yes? :p
ssg 12:42, 21 November 2006 (CET)
No. Since you're asking, you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

Templates

{|BORDER=1 CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=2 STYLE="border-style:solid; border-collapse:collapse; empty-cells:show; background:#F9F9F9;" WIDTH={{{width|100%}}} ALIGN={{{align|center}}}
geyser 16:43, 21 November 2006 (CET)
(Why do we need the "|center", when the basic width is 100%?)
ssg
To have it centered by default if one specifies a smaller width.
Maybe it should be "left" rather than "center". Minor detail.

Template
OBD_Table_Header
|- BGCOLOR="#E9E9E9"  ! WIDTH=5% | Offset || WIDTH=5% | Type || WIDTH=10% | Raw Hex || WIDTH=10% | Value || WIDTH=70% | Description
No other table templates. It's not the idea of templates to replace everything.
When I look to the wiki code, I want to see the real code and not a bunch of links to a hundred of templates.
ssg
I disagree, as a wiki admin and as a "coder". Filling in later...

Misc

Type as a column

Okay. "Bytes" will be replaced.
ssg
We'll have to agree on the type names...

hlines

Sorry. My mistake. They will be there.
ssg
What about Template:OBD TXT and Template:OBD TXT dec
You didn't plan on uploading them (the text files) as wiki-media, did you? ^^
I'm thinking about making them into wiki-tables (subpages of their respective articles).

Images

wiki-based

Let me quote "Sledge Hammer" to comment your "problem(s)": "That's a pish pot of nonsense." :p <== I hope you see the smiley. So take it easy, even if it sounds a bit rough. :-)

png

Wow, I didn't know that the file size of the png's are so much smaller. Nevertheless, I won't change the file format. I can't see any real need for that.

capitalize

I do never capitalize file names.

template

<quote>However, I've never seen a MediaWiki build with a non-white background...</quote>

But I. It was darkblue and didn't look bad.

However, I'll keep the template, beause:

  • You can delete the table easily, if you don't like it.
  • If (!) we host the images not any longer at wiki, we can add the new url easily to the template

Besides, if you are really going to replace the images with a table, you don't have to care about the image format (gif or png), where they should be hosted and the presence of image templates.


pleonasm

"below follows" is a semantic pleonasm? Why? I don't get it. *tilt*


BSP

BSP = Binary Space Partition. Use google if you want to know more about it.


Sytle

<quote>Personally and generally, I don't give a crap about the nice looks...</quote>

I know, I know. It can't be overlooked. :p
