From Alternative History

Hello, George.

I have been trying to unify all Nation infoboxes (Template:NationInfoAi, Template:NationInfoAe, Template:NationInfoBi, Template:NationInfoBe, etc.) into a single template: {{NationInfo}}.

I have seen that you recently created a few new one: {{Country (Celtic Rules)}} (yet, you have not apply it anywhere yet).

¿Is there any reason NationInfo is not fittable? I have seen a few extra parameters: royal_house and ethnic_groups. I can fit them in NationInfo, if you need them.

Regards

Hi, Carlos. I created a template which is suitable for describing Celtic Rules nations, in the way I imagined them. That's why it has the {{{royal_house}}} and {{{ethnic_groups}}} parameters, as these are important in this althistory. There I have also put some of my own personal humor (the official coat of arms and the unique state flag captions) as well as lowercase initial letters instead of usual uppercase letters, which makes me feel comfortable in a certain way... (I guess it reminds me of the native Serbian orthography.) So, if you really need to replace it with the standardized template of your own, feel free to merge them... Although that template of yours seems quite complicated, doesn't it? --Ђорђе Д. Божовић (?) 19:33, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello, George.

I had aleready added the {{{royal_house}}} and {{{ethnic_group}}} parameters. As for changing the caption, you can used {{{flag_caption}}} and {{{coa_caption}}} to put any string.

The NationInfo template is a little cumbersome in the code, but it is very easy to use: Look at Template:NationInfo and replace any {{{parameter}}} with |parameter=xxx. Most parameters have default values or do not appear if missing. There are a few hiden parameters, some of them are documented, some are not.

regards

I see. Well, I guess I'd have to give up on my template then, right? I can't keep this template, can I?

So, I don't have to use any of the parameters except those I need? And what about Template:Former country (Celtic Rules)? --Ђорђе Д. Божовић (?) 22:16, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
