WiKirby:Proposals

Your opinions matter!
Welcome to the Proposals page. Here, WiKirby's editors may propose changes to the way the wiki operates, including how to handle certain categories of content, quality standards, or even just making aesthetic suggestions. Any user who has Autopatrol status or above may make a proposal or vote on one, and after two weeks of voting, if it passes, it will be incorporated into policy. Please see below for the specifics on how to make and/or vote on a proposal.
How to make a proposal
Please use one of the following templates to make a new proposal: Single vote: This is for proposals which only propose a single change to the wiki. ==(insert proposal here) (insert date here)== (insert details of proposal here and sign with ~~~~) {{Support}} {{Oppose}} {{Neutral}} ===Discussion=== {{clear}} Multi-option vote: This is for proposals which include many possible changes to a particular element of policy. One option should always be to keep things as they were. It is recommended that no more than 8 options are given in a single proposal, including the "no change" option. ==(insert proposal here) (insert date here)== (insert details of proposal here and sign with ~~~~) {{Option|1|(option title 1)}} {{Option|2|(option title 2)}} {{Option|3|(option title 3)}} {{Option|etc.|(option title etc.)}} {{Neutral}} ===Discussion=== {{clear}} Multi-facet vote: This is for proposals which want to make several smaller changes to a single element of policy (for instance, making several changes to how the main page looks). Each change needs to be voted up or down individually. There should not be more than 5 parts to a proposal like this. This type of proposal should not be made without approval from wiki administration. ==(insert proposal here) (insert date here)== (insert summary of proposal here and sign with ~~~~) ===Change 1=== (insert details here) {{Support}} {{Oppose}} {{Neutral}} ====Change 1 discussion==== ===Change 2=== (insert details here) {{Support}} {{Oppose}} {{Neutral}} ====Change 2 discussion==== ===Change 3=== (insert details here) {{Support}} {{Oppose}} {{Neutral}} ====Change 3 discussion==== etc. {{clear}} Once a proposal is made, the voting period begins (see voting regulations below). Voting period for a proposal ends two weeks after it starts, at 23:59:59 UTC on the 14th full day of voting. An administrator can veto a proposal at any time, although such action should always be justifiable and agreed upon by multiple admins. Administrators should not use this right to add more weight to their own opinions.
Restrictions
Users may propose many different changes or additions to the wiki. The following things, however, may not be voted on: Proposals which target specific users (such as bestowing or removing ranks or rights). Proposals which violate the law, as specified in the general content policy. Proposals which seek to overturn a recently (within the last 8 weeks (or 56 days)) approved proposal. Re-submitted proposals which were recently (within the last 8 weeks (or 56 days)) rejected, and which have not been significantly altered.

Kirby 64 Element Table (2023-08-23 - 2023-09-06)

So, I think the existing Kirby 64 Copy Ability navigation is really, really... difficult. At least for me, the current set-up is very hard to read and I think it would help to use a more accessible, easy to understand template. Hmm. If only there was a convenient form of template to document every possible combination of something with two variables! Wait...

You'll see on [Google Drive link] (ZIP archive containing PNG, PDN, TXT, and HTML files) that I have made a table template that is very incomplete, but what is there is a much more approachable interface. It is a table with a top row and left column showing each base Copy Ability as an icon (that links to the ability's page, of course) and in the space of the rest of the table are links to each Power Combo. I'm kinda proud of it despite it being a basic HTML thing. Can we implement something like this on the wiki? Waddlez3121 (talk) 03:48, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Support

1. Although I'm fine with the way the Power Combos are set up on the main Kirby 64 page, I think this would be useful as a navbox on the Power Combo pages. StarPunch (talk) 04:28, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
2. This seems pretty easy to implement and I could see it put on the bottom of each Power Combo page. While I don't tend to look at Kirby 64 stuff, easier accessibility is always good. GoldenDragonLeaf (talk · edits) 04:39, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
3. This is a great idea! We've got some clickable tables like this on lots of other pages, and this would work perfectly too. --DeepFriedCabbage 05:59, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
4. Visual aids like this are always helpful, especially in a series that provides the visuals for us already. This would be a great addition. User:Electrosa

For ease of access, I've also recreated the table in wikicode. StarPunch (talk) 04:28, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
