We now have an increasing number of wiki specific templates that should be more widely used, so that it would make sense to integrate those with the default mediawiki editor - e.g. the URL encapsulating templates. -[[User:Hooray|Hooray]] ([[User talk:Hooray|talk]]) 10:12, 16 May 2016 (EDT) | We now have an increasing number of wiki specific templates that should be more widely used, so that it would make sense to integrate those with the default mediawiki editor - e.g. the URL encapsulating templates. -[[User:Hooray|Hooray]] ([[User talk:Hooray|talk]]) 10:12, 16 May 2016 (EDT) | ||
== Categorizing aircraft infoboxes by hangar == | |||
I would like to bring the discussions from [[Template talk:Infobox aircraft#fgaddon aircraft]] into here for greater exposure. The idea discussed there was to add <code>hangar</code> and <code>aircraft</code> parameters to automate and categorise the aircraft infoboxes. This is to help readers instantly identify the source of the aircraft and to give greater exposure to 3rd party hangars or independent aircraft. To show off the potential of this automated approach, I have created an example template at [[User:Bugman/Infobox Aircraft]] (see the bottom for an example based on the [[Space Shuttle]] infobox). Each [[FlightGear hangars#Third party sites|3rd party hangar]] can add one of the following options: | |||
* The hangar logo. For example I have created an initial test logo for FGAddon: [[File:FGAddon logo.png|80px]] | |||
* Development repository link. An automatically created link, if the {{param|development}} parameter is not supplied. | |||
* Download link. An automatically created link, if the {{param|download}} parameter is not supplied. | |||
* A hangar category. For example [[:Category:FGAddon hangar]]. | |||
Feedback would be appreciated. Cheers! | |||
