Talk:Lothar Hex

I really think the layout of this page needs fixed - there is way too much going on. 2 Quote boxes, portal box, image, Fanatic tag and trivia tag all on one short article makes the page far too crowded. I'd recommend leaving the portal box at the top of the page beside the lead paragraph like on most other pages and move the quotes into a seperate section. Also on most other pages quotes tend to be presented like this. The Lemur 00:27, 20 March 2012 (CET)

Agree on there being way too much going on, but do you think the quotebox has potential? I kinda like it. Perhaps we could combine the template with the current format? Bold and centre-page it, but inside the quotebox? And purely as an aside, as it may just be my browser, but on the page linked to above, I see the quote overlaid on top of the picture, like a mistake's been made. Anyone else, or just me? --Mob 00:36, 20 March 2012 (CET)

Also, wow, I did not know we had a trivia template. And I so don't like it.--Mob 00:37, 20 March 2012 (CET)

It doesnt overlap on my screen - but I made the page, so that would explain why. Combining that style within the quote box sounds like a good idea - would then solve (presumably) any other overlap problems. The Lemur 00:42, 20 March 2012 (CET)

It's probably on my end, I recently switched to Chrome from Firefox. I stuck the quotebox in on a couple of pages that came to mind, just shoved it in for a quick comparison: Tolin Dorden and Ahzek Ahriman (a bit down the way on that one). What'd you think? I kinda like it due to the functionality, but I'm honestly not sure if it's an improvement.--Mob 00:52, 20 March 2012 (CET)

I only realised how messy it was when I'd done it :/ feel free to edit (the only reason I'd put the portalbox low was that because he's only an in-game special char through Fanatic Online). I'd raised the Quotebox on the forum and put it up as no one had objected (I didn't want to make too many new threads, but maybe I should have by the reaction!) quotebox formatting is all done on defaults, and I can fix that up if you'd like (not entirely sure how to fix the overlap... are you using IE?) --IXS^=][= 00:58, 20 March 2012 (CET)

Oh, and I really wanted to make this variable sized quotebox to be able to just have a small quote to bring the article to life (like illustrative descriptions of characters, humorous passages etc.), which could be put in place of images. --IXS^=][= 01:01, 20 March 2012 (CET)

@Mob - I like it on the Arihman page, but think having it stuck in with the main text on the dorden page looks kinda messy, better to have it central and seperated from the main fluff. @ IXS - I find its often best to just jump in and make changes and then get feedback - not that many people seem to look at the forum it seems. I like the idea of the portal box in theory - but I dont think it looks good just dumped in amongst the main text on a page. The Lemur 01:45, 20 March 2012 (CET)

OK. --IXS^=][= 02:42, 20 March 2012 (CET)

My opinion is no more valid than yours though - thats just my 2 cents. The Lemur 02:44, 20 March 2012 (CET)

Then I reckon you're wrong on the last point ;) --IXS^=][= 03:55, 20 March 2012 (CET)

Im never wrong... :p The Lemur 03:59, 20 March 2012 (CET)
