Template talk:Pedro II of Brazil sidebar

Thanks SandyGeorgia for adding this. The old box was originally meant to be an infobox for the subarticles, rather than a navbox, but it was decided to use the Royalty infobox on the subarticles instead. This will work better. &bull; Astynax talk 02:34, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I see you've transcluded it in everywhere now, but it still has the "Consolation" heading, which I don't know how to change. Once everything is set, we can do the other moves Lecen requested, and then we only have to update them in one place.  Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 02:39, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I think we can just ignore the title in this instance. I also moved the image down to minimize scrolling down for the links, and added alt text for that image. You might want to arrange it differently, however. &bull; Astynax talk 02:59, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Looks good ! Now, on to another point :)  I think the reader (who might not all know Pedro as well as you do) will benefit if, instead of the years, the template shows the article names (shortened).  For example, I would replace:
 * 1825 to 1840 • 1840 to 1853
 * with
 * Early life (1825–40) • Consolidation (1840–53)
 * etc. What do you think? As it stands now, the reader has to click on years to know what the article is-- I'd find it more helpful for them to know a shortened title, with the years in parens, so they don't have to recognize years to know what they want to read.

 * I like it. I have to go offline now, so go ahead if you want to do it. I'll implement that later tonight if you have other things clamoring for your attention. &bull; Astynax talk 03:09, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I've got time now, and it's easy, so I'll go ahead and do it. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 03:10, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks, looks good! &bull; Astynax talk 06:40, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
