As far as usage, it appears that you can control the collapsed and visible sections using a faction name as the template's argument, so you wouldn't necessarily be using <code><nowiki>{{Combat Anomalies|Blood}}</nowiki></code> in all cases, though you've likely figured that out.

Hey, Jean! Template:CMBSite has existed since long before I became Wiki Manager (or even joined EVE University!). I'm not super fond of it, and I'd like to eventually phase it out because it's massive and unwieldy, but that fact that it's an all-in-one template that is fairly easy to follow means that until I come up with a better alternative, I can't easily get rid of it. I'd like to avoid making it any bigger, so I'm going to say no specifically to making {{Combat Anomalies}} a permanent component of {{CMBSite}} itself, but you are more than welcome to include it in your articles separately.
As far as usage, it appears that you can control the collapsed and visible sections using a faction name as the template's argument, so you wouldn't necessarily be using {{Combat Anomalies|Blood}} in all cases, though you've likely figured that out. I do like {{Combat Anomalies}} as a template very much, so it will definitely be sticking around, and it may even get some additional attention in the future, depending on whether certain plans come to fruition. Thank you again for all your hard work! - Djavin novienta (talk) 14:51, 9 June 2017 (CDT)
