:I always liked your version compatibility template but I never had a reason to really talk about it. It's visually more appealing and it does the same thing as the current one in practice. I really don't see anything wrong with it at all. And no, there really isn't a reason I can see for capping the current one at 2.0, though I don't know if anyone will ever check the validity of builds older than that, which might be a reason not to extend it. But nobody's really checking the version compatibility for old builds, period, so that's not a blocker (refer TommyX). I would reply directly to the sandbox, but that's a whole lot of text to read, and frankly I don't want to. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 00:33, 18 January 2018 (CET)

:: I'll try to provide a longer response later. The 2.0 cut-off was intended to limit the total # of entries shown. Once the version count exceeds the pixel count things can start to overlap/become completely hidden. It's not a good solution, was was quick and easy at the time. There have been so many releases since 2.0 now that it probably doesn't make much difference. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 00:37, 18 January 2018 (CET)

:: Sorry the whole talk page thing had overwhelmed you. I've had hard time reading person's essay they wrote there, it's sad because only writer will understand their own essay and not the other way. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 01:19, 18 January 2018 (CET)
