Objections? Might replace the exclamationmark behind the Note with a colon, to look friendlier.
Also asked if the template could be added to MediaWiki:Talkpagetext. Would be more efficient than edding it manually on top of talkpages and it's only visible when needed (read: when people enter the editor on a talkpage).

The icon seems a bit much... -- Strife ^{(talk|contribs)} 06:29, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Hm... I'll try to come up with something less disturbing after the weekend. Though I think it needs to be something with a different color than the rest of the wiki, since the current one fits that good in the regular style, that people don't notice it. Maybe just a friendly blue background will do the job... Will look into it. :-) Have a nice weekend!

Looks good to me. -- Strife ^{(talk|contribs)} 02:02, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Kewl :-) Updated.

In case you got the ability to assign Lindens to Jira issues, have a look at WEB-1036 and consider assigning Rob or Sue to it in a few. I'm abbout to make the last changes to the file, will then reopen the issue and attach the patch. It includes multi-line comments, all new functions, constants and events up to RC 1.23 and fixes the annoying link bug for constants. Lynch ^{(talk|contribs)} 02:23, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Style: changed!

... or almost!

Since this discussion stalled in 2009, I've decided to go ahead and change it. Essentially, getting rid of the HTML markup and use an appropriate template as well. The look is almost the same as before, but it'll be more manageable. I've also noticed there was a similar template for the Portuguese language, so I've changed that as well (Portuguese is, after all, my mother language :-) ). There might be other language-specific templates around; I haven't checked for any others.

(Note: I actually still prefer Zai Lynch's style above :) But since it was so polemic, I went for the more conservative one)
