Comments on template

Please put your comments here on the template, what you want to see before this becomes required for faction pages. Make sure you sign your comments by pressing the signature button, which is between the ignore wiki formatting button and the horizontal line button. You can indent your comment if you are replying to someone elses comment using the : character --Draygo (talk) 19:53, 22 March 2014 (EDT)

I'm thinking that Size (Small/Medium/Large), Focus, Date of Founding, Leadership, Stance (Passive/Neutral/Aggressive) would be the basics. The ability to add the Faction's logo to the top of the Infobox would also be great. --Deggy (talk) 23:22, 23 March 2014 (EDT)

Size is going to be automatic based on member totals. Date of founding - should I pull that from the page creation date or should it be manually filled in? I also could do both, pull from the page creation date and allow an override. Stance is going to be handled by the diplomacy page, if you want to add that you can use a custom field for now. Ill add the ability to add a logo for sure. What do you mean by focus/leadership isn't that the same as faction type/leader or do you need something more here? --Draygo (talk) 23:45, 23 March 2014 (EDT)

Leadership is the same as Leaders. Focus and Faction Type are similar enough to be equivalent, too. The override feature for faounding date would work well, but is there a way to prevent the override from pre-dating the page creation date? We potentially don't want people making their factions seem older than they are. --Deggy (talk) 10:38, 24 March 2014 (EDT)

I made a quick edit to your faction page to restore your custom entries. --Draygo (talk) 00:09, 24 March 2014 (EDT)

Thanks. By the way, whenever I add a custom row to the template it seems to want to double it and add it twice. --Deggy (talk) 10:38, 24 March 2014 (EDT)
