It is not the template coders' fault for abusing the hell out of padleft and padright, they are simply making do with the only tool they can use, and would certainly use something else if it were available (and I do mean they'd use pretty much *anything* else, as just about anything would be an improvement over the current situation). It's not like padleft and company are being blindly used either, these templates are massively optimized and however bad it is, it could be far, far worse. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
