Template talk:Navcosa

Indented line

Hm. It seems like this navbar would quickly get way too big to be useful as we keep filling in Cosa terms.--AD (talk) 07:02, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

I'm going to add an expand/collapse function as it grows..probably in groups of 5 or 10..thoughts?Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:09, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Should probably explain why I made this template. While making these past cosa pages I found it difficult navigating between. I would have to keep finding my way back to the cosa page, it seemed a little bit back and forth, felt it would be better to have an inline nav for the section. kind of similar to the series functions on wiki proper.Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:09, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

It might be better to have one with simple numbers, to run along the bottom. Far more space, and you can group them by 5s. Sort of like:

But I'm not sure.--AD (talk) 07:12, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Yipes, that's ugly, but you know what I mean.--AD (talk) 07:13, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Actually, I've just realized it's not needed at all. All I need to do is link back to the clark page by actually making the first use of the word clark go back to clark. Thanks for stopping me before that got crazy.Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:15, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

not clark...Cosa!Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:16, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

How does this strike you?

Like it?--AD (talk) 07:18, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

that works. I've added the simple link back to Cosa which makes navigation somewhat okay - I'm not sure now. Do we even have records going back as far as the first Cosa? I think I might have been getting ahead of myself.Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:24, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

AH! That one you made there could go on page Cosa to replace the standard list. That would be nice.Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:24, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Hm. Well, you were right - we do need a navbar. We have limited records all the way back, although the first ones are strictly based on Ben's word.--AD (talk) 07:28, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Since this is your project (and awesome work btw!) I'll leave it up to you if you want to redlink the ones you haven't done or just leave them unlinked for now. And of course you can fiddle with the box's appearance how you'd like.--AD (talk) 07:37, 11 July 2012 (CDT)

Cool and thanks for the help. It's looking much better. I'll play with it and see where it ends up. I'll shout for help if things get stuck or ugly again :) Eðo_Grischun (talk) 07:42, 11 July 2012 (CDT)
