[edit] Overhall
The following changes have been made to the template:
- Replaced deprecated HTML tags with CSS
- Added whitespace inside ParserFunctions to make them easier to read and understand. This will not affect the template's output.
- Only show assessment ratings if it is on the talk page of an article. Other assessment classes may show depending on the type of talk page. (Template for templates, Cat for categories)
- Assessment classes can no be in lowercase
- Can now assess an article as a disambiguation page using class=Dab
- Included {{check talk}} which will give a warning if the template is not placed on a talk page.
- Switch from {{SERVER}}{{localurl}} to {{fullurl}}
- If an article has not been assessed, then it will show that it needs assessment
- Places only articles into Category:WikiProject Anime and manga articles along with one of the assessment categories.
- Places templates into Category:WikiProject Anime and manga templates
- Places categories into Category:WikiProject Anime and manga categories
- Places everything else into Category:Non-article anime and manga pages
- Moved AMCOTW notice into template instead of the todo page.
- Removed unnecessary <tr></tr> tags which were duplicating by wikitable markup

- This is kinda funny, because I just got finished editing {{WikiProject DIGI}} to take up less space and be more useful. I'll have to go back and add some of those things too, like the check talk. I also made a little "Quick help" section when you click on show, using an idea I had when I saw the "Other pages of interest:" line from this template. -- Ned Scott 23:07, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Do we need all those articles in Category:WikiProject Anime and manga articles? It's a really big category now and I see no need for it. If I want to find an anime series I used the anime series category, if I want to see a manga character then I use the character category. What's the use of an all encapsulating category? Isn't that why we split Category:Anime up? --Squilibob 10:49, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
- Category:WikiProject Anime and manga articles is a WikiProject category, not an article category. It's not meant to find articles, but to list articles within our project's scope, etc. -- Ned Scott 11:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Template name
Could someone make some template pages with shorter names that redirect to this one? I know it's not necessary, but it wouldn't hurt (it's quicker to type, takes up less space on talk pages, and someone who doesn't know the template name would be more likely to find something that redirects here.) I was thinking something like: Template:WP Anime and manga, Template:WPAnime, and Template:WPManga. 24.126.199.129 18:40, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, they already have. {{anime}} and {{manga}}. -- Ned Scott 19:33, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
- Oh wow. How did I miss that? Thanks. 24.126.199.129 09:07, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Instructions
I have added Instructions on how to assess articles if the class= parameter is omitted. --Squilibob 16:00, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Simple change in wording
Do to a dispute over on WP:ANI about whether the words "is part of" in a WP Template was a declaration of "ownership" on part of the WikiProject, I've decided to alter the wording here to "is within the scope of" which is a more neutral phrase. --TheFarix (Talk) 17:42, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Bring back the to-do list.
I don't think there was anything wrong with the tempalte before the huge portal link was added. I think the to/do list was the most useful thing about this template. I also liked linking to some of the instruction pages dealing with anime and manga topics. i.e disucssion pages or the WP:MOS-JA. (I find the article rating system to be too artibrary to be on any real use.) Why was that removed? The info is so hard to find now because it's buried at the bottom of the main project page.

[edit] Smaller
I think we can make it even smaller without hurting anything. Thoughts? -- Ned Scott 08:07, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
