re Template:InfoBox
Did you really need to create a new template for this? We already have the Note and Tip variant. I seriously doubt the content of your box does not fit in there. — Cactus (talk | contribs) 18:34, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- I do think that Info has a different meaning opposed to Note and Tip, so yes! But that's apparently my opinion. If you do not want people to add more of those template then i suggest you lock it down. Was that BTW then ground to just revert all the changes ?! Changing the 'dreaded' Info box to one YOU find more appropriate was not easy enough?! Fuck it then.... Thanx!

- Yes, I see no need for more boxes and would appreciate discussion on this first before setting off in creating other boxes. You seem to be the first to disagree and in need for (yet) another box.
- Next time please mind you language, there is no need for such strong words. — Cactus (talk | contribs) 14:25, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

- Sorry, but let's see how you react when people are deleting your work... oh yeah, deleting, just by simply adding stuff to something you've started and one already runs the risk of getting the rest of their work chucked. Please get of your high horse, you can make your point without showing "you're in charge" and unnecessarily reverting the rest of the changes made (simply that template would have been enough). That's in my opinion kind of uncalled for.
- Apologies accepted... and I owe you one to as I did have a look at the diffs but must have overseen you other additions since I only saw the diff where you changed the boxes. Sorry.
- I am not riding a high horse, nor am I trying to express that I am in charge as I am not!
- True, I have put a lot of work in it and have setup most of the templates. I keep minding them over time.
- I could lock the overview but see no use for that as other templates might be added that could be nice to have in the list. I could put a not up to first discuss template additions but I doubt if this is really needed, but perhaps this might be an indication that such a thing is needed. — Cactus (talk | contribs) 17:05, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- I was under the impression this was 'open' to the community, I see no comments on the template pages that adding should be discussed first. As said, if you don't want people to edit this, lock it down. And the 'F#$ck it then...' refers to the fact that i'm not putting the other stuff you've reverted back, up again (so i hope nobody needs it).
- I'm gonna stop this discussion from my part before i'm really getting to worked-up about this. --jester 15:06, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
- I hope you will be a little more tolerant to changes, deletions and modifications as we are a community, indeed in which everyone is human and putting up an effort, you but me too! I therefore welcome a more friendly tone, even if someone might have stepped on your toes, perhaps by accident. In written word friendliness, irony, sarcasm and other tones are much harder to get than in face-to -face (or verbal) communication. Thanks in advance. — Cactus (talk | contribs) 17:05, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
