What does “undent” mean, and when should this template be used? It’s not explained anywhere. ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 11:00, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Template:Outdent’s documentation says the following about {{undent}}: Rather than a bar on the previous line and "outdent", produces (undent). Unless I’m missing something, it doesn’t actually explain what “undent” means, so what does it mean, and what is {{undent}} for? ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 12:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
No need for the inflamed language. It is common to ask new editors whether they have read the documentation, especially when they do not evidence that they have read the documentation. The distinction between {{undent}} and {{outdent2}} is about nil. --Izno (talk) 12:07, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I think that “Do you think that I’m retarded?” is about equivelent to “Do you think that I’m stupid?” It’s not exactly “inflamed language,” in my opinion.
I have been on Wikipedia for years, and you think I haven’t read a one-sentence template documentation. Funny. By the way, the way you phrased your comment made it seem quite rude. Rather than just asking me whether I’d read Template:Undent’s template documentation, you chose to make it passive aggressive, for whatever reason.
Anyway, what’s the point of {{undent}} if {{outdent2}} is exactly the same thing? I reckon they should be merged. ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 12:10, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Feel free to TFM these templates. I believe there would be a consensus to merge their functionality. I would certainly support such. --Izno (talk) 12:16, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
What does “TFM” mean in this context? Do you simply mean “transform,” or is it actually an acronym? ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 12:19, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If you are nominating a template for merging, that's TFM (template for merge). It takes place at TFD. --Izno (talk) 12:32, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Izno: I’m going to be honest to you; you’re acting rather arrogantly:
You assumed that I hadn’t read the one-sentence documentation of the template I am discussing. You also acted passive aggressively in the aforementioned reply.
You explain to me what one acronym means, and then you use another acronym in that comment, without explaining it, when you clearly knew that I didn’t know what it meant.
@PapiDimmi: Review the entirety of your shortcut link as well as WP:LISTGAP before an accusation of guideline violation—sometimes they don't say what you think they say. --Izno (talk) 13:09, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Izno: I did not put empty lines between the list items, so I did not violate WP:LISTGAP in any way. You also changed my comments other times and in other ways.
Sometimes, a guideline doesn’t say what you think they say.
By the way, once again, you’re being passive aggressive. Calm down there, fella! ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 13:12, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@PapiDimmi: Here is a quotation in full from WP:TPO: Fixing format errors that render material difficult to read. In this case, restrict the edits to formatting changes only and preserve the content as much as possible. Examples include fixing indentation levels, removing bullets from discussions that are not consensus polls or requests for comment (RfC), fixing list markup, using <nowiki> and other technical markup to fix code samples, and providing wikilinks if it helps in better navigation. Review the changes I made to ensure that I made no substantive edits to any of your comments and worked only to preserve the intent of this bullet. --Izno (talk) 13:14, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Izno: You did not “fix format errors that [renderred the] material difficult to read” whatsoever. You made pointless changes to spacing and indentation. ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 13:16, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@PapiDimmi: Just by the way, with your I’m going to be honest to you; you’re acting rather arrogantly statement; By the way, you are violating WP:TPOTalk pages are for improving the encyclopedia, not for expressing personal opinions on a subject or an editor. — IVORKDiscuss 13:18, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Suit yourself. Cheers! --Izno (talk) 13:19, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@IVORK: It doesn’t say that in WP:TPO; it does at the top of the page itself, so your comment doesn’t make much sense in that regard.
Anyway, I don’t consider my comments off-topic, as I was responding to Izno’s comments and referring to his or her comments. My comments were not entirely about my opinions against Izno either. ―PapíDimmi(talk | contribs) 13:21, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
