User talk:John Juulianos/Template:Department Navbox
Just a "few" quick remarks/ideas for the navbox.
Order of things: CEO on top, the CEO is top of the heap isn't it? Then the directorates at the end, as in the order of things they are below the directorates (I feel directorates are "more official").
Reducing redundancy: Less E Uni in the items, the whole navbox is about E Uni e.g. in the Communications department use Twitter instead of EVE Uni's Twitter, same for Facebook and Blog (BTW, the blog link gave me a 404) or in the Hauling department just Hauling service instead of EVE Uni's Hauling Service.
What about Discord, Mumble and the Chat channels about communication? shouldn't they be with the Communication department? Am I missing the forum here?
Another example, under Fleet command team, use Joining the team instead of Joining the FC team. etc.etc.
Technical: External links, like the Twitter link are coded with only one pair of square brackets and the divider between link and display text is the first space not a pipe. So, the Twitter link should be coded as [https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity Twitter] which then gives Twitter as you have it now it looks like [EVE Uni's Twitter] and it does not work because it is looking for [https://twitter.com/EVEUniversity|, notice the pipe at the end of the link? Twitter can not find that page. --Evon R'al (talk) 14:19, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
- You are absolutely right Evon, I agree about all your points. This is the first iteration, I'm happy about the progress even though it is clear that the template includes only about 30% of all EVE University related pages that I'd like to see. For example, most EVE University policy pages are missing. I've talked to User:Ezra Salaz about improving on what John has started and they proposed User:Ezra Salaz/Sandbox/Template:Management Rules Services Navbox as the second iteration. I'm currently musing on about the third iteration and everyone willing is free to join me in improving he unified EVE University template on page User:Arin_Mara/Sandbox/Template:UnifiedEVEUni. Thank you John, thank you Ezra, thank you Evon on your valuable input :) Arin Mara (talk) 19:33, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
