Some could be refined more. I like how the new "Compatibility" section can cover three sections the old layout has and it can reduce lot of writing.

: Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's still a big NOPE for me. In fact, the whole page looks so messy right now that I don't think there's anything currently "worthy" of being deployed outside of this sandbox. - [[User:mbc07|mbc07]] ([[User talk:mbc07|talk]]) 05:07, 17 August 2019 (CEST) | : Sorry if this sounds harsh, but it's still a big NOPE for me.

:I think Compatibility as a replacement makes sense on paper, but it's pretty jumbled in practice. Right now, pretty much by accident (after many years of bickering and minor tweaks), we've ended up with a format for game pages that's really easy to read and get exactly what you want from it, with perfect topic splits. I like it a lot the way it is, even the concession for widescreen/60fps codes is perfect. | |||
:I think [[Template:Gecko]] is the best idea so far and I think it's ready to be deployed, I'll give it a run through in notepad++ again soon. The reasons for the template, as far as I can tell, are: a) ability to address all the codes sections at once without a regex, b) generating useful categories for what pages are missing 60fps/widescreen codes and what games require codes to function (all other codes?), and c) just the nicety of using an actual template, which might be more user friendly. The only thing I know that's really "wrong" with it is that the region sorting by ID doesn't work because game IDs are garbage, it needs to be done more manually. (Though for the record I've never once used a code and I don't know much about them, e.g. the difference between Gecko, AR, and the "dword" codes). | |||
:Sorta related: I think the "best" change possible right now would be some kind of split in console accurate config (native res, no AA etc) and enhancement config templates. And even that doesn't really matter because all you have to do is just read the config change to know what the problem is that it's solving, though maybe it's better for less technically proficient users. It's kind of in the air at the moment (afaik) what to do about whether or not enhancement problems should actually be in the config template. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 06:19, 17 August 2019 (CEST) | |||
