== I like the switch better.... ==

Less templates. :-) [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 10:29, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:The new solution makes sure everyone can set autoborders, rather than just the people who can edit [[Template:Flag]] (which should really be protected). --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 10:31, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
::Maybe, but if we had a template check... every page would be looking for it and it become a "requested template" under Wanted Pages. We are trying to reduce that list.. not expand it. :-) [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 10:33, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:::[[Template:Country alias]] is on top of [[Special:Wantedpages]] with 152 links, all resulting from pages using the {Cast,Crew,User} Data template while not specifying a nationality. Also, does it really matter? --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 10:39, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
::::That will be fixed soon... :-D [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 10:40, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:Job queue is over 15k. I am running it right now. [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 10:51, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
::I saw the fix. What exactly is the job queue and what does it mean that it's over 15K? Also, in which way will hundreds of pages checking for [[Template:Country flag autoborder US]] and find it nonexistent hurt the system? --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 11:05, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:::Fixed! YAY! :-D [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 11:57, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
::::Am I the only one that think flag borders look ugly? --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] ([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]]) 12:16, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:I do not like them either... naybe not "white". Maybe another color.. [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]]) 12:29, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
::Hmm, whatever you did to [[Template:Border]] just now messed up the borders for {{flag|BE}} again. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 12:51, 23 May 2007 (CDT)

Shane, could you elaborate more on why you prefer the #switch over the templates? AFAIK, doing an #ifexists on a page doesn't get it into [[Special:Wantedpages]]. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 12:34, 23 May 2007 (CDT)
:How do i turn off flag borders for me then? I dont think they look right and dont fit well with the rest of the wiki design. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] ([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]]) 02:58, 25 May 2007 (CDT)
::Instead of {{tlp|flag|BE}} (gives {{flag|BE}}), use {{tlp|country flag|BE}} (gives {{country flag|BE}}). Shane somehow managed to mess up the BE border, but the {{flag|DE}} and {{flag|EE}} look fine to me. <s>Meanwhile, I'll try to fix the BE border.</s> Fixed. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 06:27, 25 May 2007 (CDT)
:::That wont stop borders from appearing all over the place tho will it? How do i remove the horrible border from the german flag on the front page? It looks ugly. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] ([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]]) 08:11, 25 May 2007 (CDT)
::::If your uglyness complaint was about the DE flag not lining up with the rest of the flags, that's fixed now. It's an ugly, temporary fix, though (I simply moved it down by 5px), but it's the best we've got going so far. AFAIK you're our CSS guru, so maybe if you take a look at [[Template:Border]] you'll come up with something better. You can use [[User:Catrope/Template:Border]] and [[User:Catrope/Testing Template]] for testing, if you want to. If you just find the borders ugly in themselves, you can always remove them using the procedure I outlined above. The flags for the Main Page are at [[Template:International inline]]. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]]) 09:24, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

Hi Catrope,

Thank you for the code. I ran into a few subtle bugs when I tried to fix the nesting of those table a couple of months ago. I'm about to go to Switzerland for a few days but I'll review and implement you fix when I get back. Cheers, [[User:Ruud Koot|Ruud Koot]] 13:13, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
