=== Suggestions ===
As for the character video, why not just do one for each main characters? {{User:Dantheburgerking/sig}} 03:26, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
:I second that. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 03:47, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

=== Main Page Nav Template ===

''This conversation was moved from [[Talk:Main_Pages#Main_Page_Nav_Template]].''

Does anyone think we need a navigation template for the main pages like we have for the Toons, TGS Issues, Answering Machines and SBEmails? You know, like, if you were on Main Page 5, there would be arrows at the top of the screen pointing to Main Pages 4 and 6. Just a thought. I thought it would be prooty awexome because the main pages pages go in sequential order. Any opinions on how stupid and/or borderline mental that sounded? {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 00:16, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
:I, personally, don't think it's a bad idea. It's looked good [[HRWiki:Projects#Navigation_templates|so far]]. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 02:43, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
<blockquote> Great idea are you doing that one? If not I don't mind I just don't want us both doing it at the same time. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 14:38, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

I was thinking something like this:
{{mainnav|1|23|2}}
</blockquote>

::Right now I am not doing it so feel free to work on that. However, I was wondering about the [[Main_Pages#Other_Main_Pages|secondary main pages]] such as [[Luau Main Page|this one]] that do not have a number assigned to them. The current form of {{tl|mainnav}} does not allow for listings of such pages. As for the "go to Main Page X" tag, it might be slightly long, but the only other option i was thinking of was "go to Main Page" which isn't that much shorter. So that should be adequate I guess. You may have to alter the nav so that you have to type: <code><nowiki>{{mainnav|main1.html|Main Page 23|Main Page 2}}</nowiki></code> in order to handle secondary pages. In this case, the use of a generic navigation template (there should be one out there somewhere -- SBEmail talk perhaps?) would be better. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:42, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
:::That was quick work! Hopefully the comment above won't set you back ... much. Anyway I just wanted to note that the blank space to the left of the nav makes me a little "uncomfortable". I don't like having that big gap between the title and the first line of text. Oh! I know... I think i know how to fix it and i'll fix it in the first main page only... gotta eat lunch and get to work! --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:52, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
::::My solution is not going to work. I'll have to look at it later. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:54, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
:::::I don't think those egg pages need to be lumped in with the rest of them. They are eggs and as such are not in order like the rest of them. It would not be in the list of main page that users would be looking normally (which is what the nav is made for; easier access to HRWIKI knowledge). I don't think the goal of the navigation buttons are to link every article in every area. <big>IF</big> we decide those main pages get nav button to, I say nav them JUST with each other keeping them seperate from the ither main pages {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 18:00, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
::::::That <code><nowiki><big>IF</big></nowiki></code> comment makes sense (I just wanted to paste the code). If we take the [[Strong Bad Emails]] as precedent (and [[TGS]]), the [[Strong_Bad_Emails#DVD_Emails|DVD]] emails and [[Strong_Bad_Emails#Not_Quite_Strong_Bad_Emails|NQSB]] emails don't have anything currently and are separated from the real emails. I'll looks at the template formatting soon. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:40, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
:::::::Ok I fixed the spacing issue. I also added a list of the templates we're using. I will add a cat to them soon. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 18:52, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

=== Help with Shorts Template ===
I signed up for the shorts template. Is it okay to have 4 of <nowiki>{{{X}}}</nowiki> these in there? {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:36, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:I created it, um... [[Template:toonnav|Template:shortnav]]. Tell me what you think. Here's an emaple:

{{toonnav|Shorts|sickday|Commandos in the Classroom|Strong Bad is a Bad Guy}}

{{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:40, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:What if we changed it to [[Template:toonnav]], which would be a generic template. We don't really need the "Short:" identifier. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:42, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

::Umm, okay, but this isn't for big toons. Shorts. {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:45, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:::Oh oh oH! I get it! Good idea. Sure. moving! {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:46, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

::::Mov'd! [[Template:toonnav]] {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:48, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:::::Cool. But, now that I think about it, are the toons considered to be in an order? Wouldn't [[Template:watchtoon|this]] be sufficient? — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:50, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

::::::Well, if they're in the order on the TV guide. {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:51, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:::::::That's how I did the example. {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 03:52, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
