: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)
