Template:FreddyJason[edit]

This template was created to bring the two series together as they crossed over. Before using it on any page of either of those two series, a review would help determine if the work is good or not.

It is gigantic, it needs to be smaller. Why do you think combining the two characters into one is useful? MechBrowman 02:09, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If the font gets smaller, then the bold caption and table headings will not work. Also, the smaller the font the less readable it is. The reason for them to be combined into one box is that the movie Freddy vs. Jason bridges the two series together into one. There are two templates (Template:Nightmareseries and Template:Friday the 13th) out there now that, when used together on a page, are just as large in combination as this one. Those templates are currently on two pages, Freddy vs. Jason and Freddy and Jason universe timeline. This one could be used instead. Also, the two current templates are nearly unreadable since the font is so small and the words so crammed together that it is almost a blur. Lady Aleena | Talk 04:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not a big fan of large templates that are intended to repeat the same information on multiple pages. This template in particular is so huge that it takes up almost an entire page. I don't think this is a good trend. Sorry. — RJH 15:55, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

A load of shit. Way too big in size and is going to take too much of the page size. You need to condense it more, or create two tempates, one on Jason one on Freddy, and put both templates where both are relevant or just one or the other for articles that only really relate to one of them. Just what the fuck were you thinking. Roger Danger Field 16:27, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Your lack of decorum and foul tongue is entirely inappropriate for this forum, knave. Kindly return to the steaming heap from whence you crawled. :-/ — RJH 15:52, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There is no need for personal attacks, just because I got to the point. My point was by no means a reflection on the person themselves. You might also want to note that this not an internet forum in the traditional sense, but a system of commenting. There is one type of person on the high seas of internet nerdom worse than someone who makes there point in a slightly different manner to everyone else's, and that's a blatant flamer who thinks they hold a non-existent moral high ground. Thank you though sir, I'll attempt to be more diplomatic next time. Roger Danger Field 19:47, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies then, but I found your employment of expletives a tad distasteful. You also appeared to be directly insulting the contributor with the expression, "Just what the fuck were you thinking." I didn't believe that either was necessary to present your critique. Thank you. — 18:53, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Nice idea and as well designed as it could be, but it is too big. The two seperate templates do the job well. The JPS 20:40, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Interesting idea, but the two templates suffice. And I'm not just saying that because I created/updated them. --Myles Long/cDc 20:53, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I get the picture. I will stay away from creating anything in the future as well since it seems that my ideas all seem to be disliked. I will try to get this template deleted. Lady Aleena | Talk 22:45, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This was just unlucky - there are lots of existing articles that could use your help. Roger Danger is a troll so don't worry about his comments. Stay positive, keep an open mind about editing and I'm sure you'll find something that really sparks your interest and which receives a good response from the commmunity.

You're bound to run into objections while toiling in wikipedia, Lady Aleena. There are a lot of opinionated people here. But you shouldn't let that discourage you. Keep trying and I'm sure you efforts will be appreciated. Thanks. — RJH 16:01, 30 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
