Uh, why sort it at "{" within the templates page?
-Phoxtrot 09:00, 26 May 2008 (BST)
- Personally, I think this template either needs remade into an actual template or deleted. It's not mine so I'm not going to take the time to edit it.

Problem
I know it's a bad template but I don't know how to make a real one, and I did the best I could not knowing how. If someone tells me I would be glad to make it into a real template.SUBST:User:Greggacam/SigX
- To make a real template, it needs to be able to be put into another page by typing {{templateName|parameters}} instead of just copying some code and pasting it into the other page. I recommend reading http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates to learn more about how templates work and how to make them.

Bugs
OK so can someone change the title to SkillBox1 for me? And also I don't know what happened with the pages on the Template page, they are listen under }. If anyone can fix that it would be okay, you may edit it if you want.
I think I made a good improvement in 3 minutes, no? Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
- I fixed your problem with the categorizing under }. The problem was you used [[Category:Templates|{}]] instead of [[Category:Templates|{{PAGENAME}}]]. I also noticed a few other code errors in the template which I did not fix... specifically the extra !! at the end of !Skills!!Image!!Level!!Price!! which creates a fifth but empty column in the table. Other than that, there weren't any other problems that blatantly stuck out at me.

OK thanks, and what about the title problem? Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
- Fixed! All that needed done was moving the page to the new title.

Thanks! There isn't a way for me to get a signature like yours without being a sysop, right? And do you notice any more bugs?
- Actually, you can read Belgrave's profile. It will lead you to a page where it teaches you how to create your own signature.

- You can find instructions at: Category:User_Signatures. Anyone can make one; you just have to carefully follow the directions and know how to use it.

OK thanks I'm making one right now. Any bugs? Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
Why is my signature not working?
- Click on 'my preferences' at the top of the page. This will bring up a page where you can change all your wiki user settings. Partway down is a box for 'Nickname:'. In that box you put {{SUBST:User:Greggacam/SigX}}. Once you do this, it should work properly. I fixed User:Greggacam/SigX for you too.

OK thanks it works now! Do you notice any issues with the template? Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
For a fun time...
How about altering the template to make the table more customizable? For instance, you could make parameters that change the borders, background colors, and just about everything else while keeping the default values! If you'd like to see an example of a template that customizable, check out Template:EnhancementBar.
— Belgrave, Moderator / Sysop Talk Message PM
- Will work on it Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
- One Q - how do you make it so that if you don't include the parameter it will be one color or you can change it? Like you can make the color a parameter but then you have to put in the parameter. In the Enhancement Bar it's optional. Greggacam [Talk • Message • PM • Contributions]
- What I did was use numbers instead of names for my parameters (not necessary, but makes it easier to keep track of them all with less typing. To give them a default, I used:
{{{1|default}}}- If you look through some of the other templates I've done (Template:BPSlots), you'll find various other things I've used default parameters for.
