Template talk:WikiProject Ohio

Updates
Would anyone object to modifying this Banner to add an importance scale? See: Template:OH-Project/Sandbox for example. §tepshep  •   ¡Talk to me!  17:05, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Error in this Template?
I don't know what is different in this template, but something is causing every talk page it is placed on to appear in Category:WikiProject banners with quality assessment (which should only contain template description pages). dramatic (talk) 10:09, 10 April 2008 (UTC)


 * It was a small error, the server caught up and everything should be back to normal now. §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  03:57, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Redirect template
I created a template redirect Template:Wikiproject Ohio, because there are many other similar project with such a template, and in case anyone forgets. Spencer T♦C 15:10, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Edit request
Please replace with the content at Template:OH-Project/Sandbox, minus the sandbox notice at the top. Thanks! §hep  •   ¡Talk to me!  05:45, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Done. --- RockMFR 19:28, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Aligning to the left
I'm not sure if anyone cares or not, but if you check out this, the text is showing up over to the left instead of centered like the others.--Rockfang (talk) 06:42, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Everything looks the same to me. What browser and skin are you usin' ?  §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  03:53, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm using the default MonoBook skin and IE 7. I tried using Safari on my roommate's Mac, and it is  centered.  If anyone else using IE 7 is reading this, please respond with how it looks in your browser.--Rockfang (talk) 04:41, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Update: I narrowed down the problem. In Special:Preferences on the Misc tab if you have the Justify paragraphs option ticked, it moves the nested project name to the left.  I'm guessing it has something to do with the coding of this specific project template.  If it was a site bug, I'd assume the others would be affected as well.  I don't know much about writing templates, so someone else should probably investigate further.--Rockfang (talk) 04:53, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * I use IE7 and Monobook as well, I don't have Justify paragraphs ticked. Here is a screenshot: Image:WPOH Banner.png. It's not this specific banner, as we use a Meta template.  If there is a problem with the coding you can spot it needs to go to Template talk:WPBannerMeta where that person watches. Best,  §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  07:03, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the info. I'll post the info over there as well.--Rockfang (talk) 17:43, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

Edit request
Would you please replace this template with the version at the /Sandbox excluding. Thank you! §hep  •   ¡Talk to me!  04:33, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Template:OhioSBN
Template:OhioSBN takes up quite a bit of room on article talk pages and seems of limited interest to those outside WikiProject Ohio. So I suggest adding it as a NOTE to this template instead. Thoughts? Martin 17:33, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The same method is used by many other Portals, it has nothing to do with the WikiProject which operates as a separate entity. It could probably be a bit shorter heightwise, but otherwise it's not an uncommon practice. If the banner is a specific problem  can be passed to make it smaller and float right.  §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  17:30, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Decided to pop in a few examples: Template:Bristol selected article, Template:Canada selected article, Template:Canada selected biography, Template:Cars Portal former selected articles, Template:China Portal Selected Article, Template:Delaware SA, Template:EduFA, and Template:OKselectedart along with many others. §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!

Change request
Could the contents of Template:OH-Project/Sandbox be copied into the main template. It replaces the use of the COLLAPSED section with a HOOK template instead. Thanks -- WOSlinker (talk) 22:53, 7 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Why were the s added? Just curious what they do different then plain text.  §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  05:29, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * There are also some minor mods to wording and images. §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  05:31, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
 * ✅ Ruslik (talk) 18:12, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Sometimes big blocks of text don't always work correctly as a parameter to a template, so I just tend to wrap them in a div tag to avoid an hassles. -- WOSlinker (talk) 19:14, 8 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh okay. Thanks for the help. §hep   •   ¡Talk to me!  17:00, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Edit request
Could an administrator please remove the italics from the boldface WikiProject Ohio wikilink? I see no reason why italics are necessary there. Thanks. Levdr1lp (talk) 23:49, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Fixed. JJ98 (Talk) 09:22, 8 December 2014 (UTC)

Deprecate template
This project is going to be supported by WikiProject United States so this template is going to be deprecated and the project added to the WikiProject United States banner. Since this template is protected I implemented the code to the sand box version here. Please implement. --Kumioko (talk) 16:47, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You have a noinclude which is not closed. &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:06, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok I think its fixed now. You could have fixed that though. I wouldn't have minded. --Kumioko (talk) 02:55, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay ✅ &mdash; Martin (MSGJ · talk) 10:02, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Given the deletion discussion at TfD for the WPUSA template, I demerged this one from that one. At some point, any changes on the talk pages can be done.  Imzadi 1979  →   23:35, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
