Template talk:Familytree

Valeriis

Would a family tree on the Valeriis be useful or no? Since never had the "parents" she thought she did, and there's more than one copy.--DrWho42 14:08, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I went through all the "active" character that we have. The only one that is as complex is only the Adama's. Granted, Athena + Helo = Hera and Cheif + Cally = Nick and even Lee adama had a "son" that died, I wasn't sure if I were going to add them because it's not the Adama tree. So... i really don't know-- Shane (talk) 14:14, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I was kindof wondering about the oddity of her "having" the parents Abraham Valerii and Katherine Valerii, when they never existed to begin with. Also, I suspect Gianne and Lee's unborn son wouldn't be included? --DrWho42 14:35, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Never "family" per say, but gene's were "mixed". Define: Family. Shane (talk) 14:41, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Alternative to this?

By the Gods, the syntax on this monstrosity is looking mighty hideous today! I believe my eyes were about to well with blood and spew forth as I read the syntax... Is there a better alternative to this thing? Something that's more human readable, because you really need a decoder ring and a case of Jack Daniels to figure this thing out. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus} 14:24, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

I figured it out. :) Wasn't that hard. :) (This coming from a programer's point of view...). There was Template:Chart, but it was just as complex as this. -- Shane (talk) 14:29, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, that's the problem. You need to be a computer programmer to use this thing... But given that we're not going to be using it much, I figure I can live with it... until something better comes along. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus} 14:35, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

It's a bit intimidating, but since there aren't many large families, I don't see this being used much. So it might as well be complicated -- Serenity 14:51, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
