Template talk:Sisterlinks

Problems with this page

This template is more like Wikipedia:Template:Commons and it should be like: Wikipedia:Template:Sister project links. How can this be fixed? Evrik (talk) 14:44, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

I noticed the same thing and I support this proposal. For example in an article like Art and Category:Art should benefit from a more compact template. -- Mdd (talk) 14:42, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

Since this template is protected, I started to test-edit at Template:Sister-links to see how this could look like. -- Mdd (talk) 18:05, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Now I initiated the example, but it seems like there is something missing. It looks like Wikiquote doesn't recognize te first command line class="metadata plainlinks mbox-small... - Mdd (talk) 18:43, 13 February 2013 (UTC)

Each of the classes needs to exist in mediawiki:common.css. It might be worth checking to see if some are defined in w:mediawiki:common.css that are missing (or different) here? K7L (talk) 00:51, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your response, this is to technical for me but I am trying to learn. It seems like in Wikiquote none of the classes exist? At least, I tried to import more simple templates here, but for example none of them gave the result that the box became located on the right side of the page. -- Mdd (talk) 01:57, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Today I:

• Rewrote the Template:Sister-links without the classes,
• Started testing it in the article Art.
• Moved the template to Template:Sister project links, and speedy deleted old Template:Sister-links

It seems to work!? -- Mdd (talk) 12:58, 14 February 2013 (UTC)
