So I made a template today, but I'm not sure if I should go with it. Looking through the Wiki, there doesn't seem to be a standard for campaigns, so I based mine off what's recent and clean: Silent Threat: Reborn. What I want to know is that if I should go through with it or not. Anyway, here's the template.
{| border=0 align=right cellpadding=4 cellspacing=1 width=30% style="margin: 0 0 1em 1em; background: #202020; border: 1px #AA2020 solid; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 95%;"
! style="color: white; height: 30px; background: #512020; 70%;"|'''''Mod Info'''''
|-
! style="color: white; height: 30px; 70%;"|[[Template:Campaign Article Walkthrough]]
|}
'''[[Template:Campaign Article]]''' is (insert short description here)

<b>Release Date:</b> XX/XX/XX

I appreciate the effort, but campaign articles tend to be various. For example, I'm not a big fan of the features section (which usually ends up with stuff like "An original plot", "New goodies", "...and more!", etc. etc.). Also, the release date is not an available information for many campaigns... and, sadly, it's not a valid information when it comes to updates and additions. One of the things you should definitely add is a member list ("Authors", "Team members").
Other than that, :yes:

Alright. Created. Added a staff section and a place to put updates. Change the template if necessary.

Major changes should always be discussed. (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,63666.0.html):)

How would this affect pages with different formats, like FotG's page?

SypheDMar, ignore Mobius, he's making a power grab. Your campaign template is an excellent idea. :yes:

Check your PMs... :)

I was wondering if we should use more ratings in player comments... in that case, the campaign template may be easily modified to have a ratings section. :)

So that you could give them bad ratings just because you didn't like them?
-
Implementing some rating-registration program (or addon, whatever you'd call it) just wouldn't be worth it. You can just end your comment with your rating if you want to in a simple and clear way /(4/5; **** out of 5, etc.). There are so few player comments anyway.

No, I surely wouldn't.

Yeah, sorry. I was refering to a phrase placed at the very end of the comment, just like the one you posted.
