Hoi,
Sorry if you feel that I am condescending. What you said was not clear at
all. For me it was not put in a way that made me understand that you were
proposing a solution. It came across as: look how great Wiki synax is; we
have templates..
I hate templates with a vengeance. They obfuscate what is being said, they
do not transcend the limits of a wiki and it makes people believe that the
templates in use are best practice. Maybe for them but not when you have a
profile on over 100 wikis like me.
Thanks,
GerardM
