We already have a template like this, IIRC, but seriously, tread carefully. I think in most cases, long articles are warranted given the breadth of the topic (see [[Excel Saga]]). --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 07:38, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
* I hadn't seen the template anywhere on the site, but I figured as much. (That's one reason I created it under my userpage.) Thanks anyway.

{{Americunt}}

</div>

I'm just here to do grammar and spelling checks and such. I've been a grammar Nazi all my life, and that's not about to change. My project ''du jour'' is to help with [[CWCki:Operation Grammatification]] by doing what I do best: being a grammar Nazi.

My name doesn't come from the obscenely retarded anime called 'Bleach'; rather, it comes from the obscenely awesome [[wikipedia:Bleach (album)|album]] entitled ''Bleach'' from famous grunge band [[wikipedia:Nirvana (band)|Nirvana]], of which I'm a big fan.

==Things I've Done==
*[[User:Bleach/Templates]]
*Miscellaneous grammatical/spelling/compositional edits

==Gamer Challenge==

I'm a PC gamer. <small>(Consoles can rot in hell. Except for the [[Xbox|Ecksbawks ThweeThixty]] and my cherished Dreamcast.)</small> I have the PC versions of ''BioShock'' and ''TES IV: Oblivion'' (and ''Mirror's Edge''), all of which Chrissy has for the PS3, and I've done more with them than Chrissy probably ever will. I've played the shit out of ''Oblivion'' and continue to download mods for it; I don't play ''Bioshock'' as much anymore, but I still enjoy it from time to time -- I beat it within a couple of weeks of buying it, only taking time to study and fix my then newly built computer. My uptake on ''Mirror's Edge'' has been slower, mostly because I'm not as big a fan of platformers as I used to be, and that game is no exception, although it is pretty cool.

Irritatingly, all three games lack achievements of any kind), so there's no definite way to gauge how much I've out-gamed Chris, but I have to some undefinable extent. Like I said, I beat BioShock, and I've put a couple of hours into Mirror's Edge, and let's not forget all the time I've spent playing the shit out of Oblivion. (I'm moving on to ''Morrowind'' these days, I find, since it actually runs on my laptop.)

For the other gamerfags on here, I run a Core i7 920 on an Asus P6T Deluxe V2 with 6 GB G.SKILL DDR3-1600 RAM and two EVGA GeForce GTX 260 vid cards, all with Windows 7 Ultimate. Way overkill for Morrowind, but it runs Warhead on Enthusiast.

==[[CWC]]==
Chrissy fascinates me as a study in the ideal ''anti-person''. He is as much an internet phenomenon as he is a living, breathing, Social Security-mooching example of what ''not'' to be. He's dumb enough to release his home address to the internet, gullible enough to be trolled repeatedly with the same basic formula, neurotic enough to flip the fuck out at the drop of a hat, and narcissistic enough to believe that '''he's always right''', even when he's horrifyingly wrong.

Chrissy ruined Sonic for me. (More accurately, the retarded Sonic fandom at large ruined the franchise for me. Chrissy just finished the job.) I have fond childhood memories of playing the Genesis games, and lusting over a Sega Dreamcast so I could see my favorite video games mascot in 3D. At no point was the blue hedgehog my personal role model. Until I learned that he was merely a mediocre programmer and exceptionally shrewd businessman, Bill Gates was my personal hero.

<strike>A template that says the article has a dead video link and needs to be replaced. </strike>Also, an article indicating that content from the page can be split off (like the opposite of [[:Template:Merge]]). --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 12:11, 2 September 2009 (CEST)

*There doesn't seem to be one yet, so here's one for a [[Template:Deletedvideo|deleted video]]. --[[User:Sonicow|Sonicow]] 23:01, 26 September 2009 (CEST)
:*You got it. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 15:50, 27 September 2009 (CEST)

<strike>Collapsible gallery.</strike> --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:50, 3 June 2009 (CEST)
*I forget who did it but someone did it and for that, CWCki is indebted to them. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 03:34, 9 June 2009 (CEST)

<strike>A box that says something along the lines of "This article regarding an audio or video needs transcribing" with a category for articles that need transcription. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 22:55, 9 June 2009 (CEST)</strike>
*I knocked [[Template:VidNeedsTranscription|this]] up in half an hour. Should go close to what you want. --[[User:Great Briton|Great Briton]] 02:33, 25 July 2009 (CEST)
**Great template, I replaced some of the "Incomplete" tags with "Transcription"--[[User:Megaman|Megaman]] 03:24, 26 July 2009 (CEST)
An [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox infobox] for people, like all CWC related people (Megan, Anna, his family, etc). --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 00:48, 20 June 2009 (CEST)
* I think I can help out with doing infoboxes. Do we need a single generic infobox, or specific infoboxes (family, gal-pals, trolls, etc.)? --[[User:THE IMPERIOUS DORK|THE IMPERIOUS DORK]] 00:57, 24 July 2009 (CEST)
:*A general box should work, though ideally we should have a general box that can easily be customized for sweethearts, trolls, etc. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 08:32, 26 July 2009 (CEST)
::* We've got one already [[Template:people]]. It needs a little fine tuning.--[[User:Megaman|Megaman]] 08:49, 26 July 2009 (CEST)
::::*The people template is okay for navigation, but with an info box, it'd be neat because you could put a picture and underneath it'd have some stats like birthddate, relation to Chris, etc. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:02, 6 August 2009 (CEST)

I created a shady [[Template:Welcome|Welcome Template]], with some useful links for new members, but it needs a of fixing up, feel free to mess with it. If we ever set up a bot to police our wiki, it can use it, but for now we can just greet people by hand. --[[User:Megaman|Megaman]] 08:30, 26 July 2009 (CEST)

I am creating a [[Template:Needs Images]] for articles that could use some spicing up.--[[User:Megaman|Megaman]] 00:49, 27 July 2009 (CEST)

A collapsible navbox with grouping (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:The_Sandman here] for an example). This would be particularly useful and spiffy up the many navigation boxes. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 02:27, 29 July 2009 (CEST)
:*I've started working on this, I've created at working, but ugly version of what you requested. I've been breaking it up into smaller, easier to use templates, based on how TOW does it. So far I've created [[Template:•wrap]], [[Template:Nowrap begin]] and [[Template:Nowrap end]]. However, I've run into a problem. While [[Template:Nowrap begin]] works perfectly, [[Template:•wrap]] and [[Template:Nowrap end]] only produce </script> in plain text. I've got to run out for an eye exam today, if anyone wants to tinker with them, you can see what I've done at [[User:Megaman/sandbox]]. --[[User:Megaman|<font face="Impact" color="blue" size="2px">''Megaman!''</font> ]] [[Image:MegaManXRunning.gif]] 18:42, 29 July 2009 (CEST)

Created [[Template:Merge]], surprised we didn't have one already--17:26, 29 July 2009 (CEST)
*The merge template is great, but I think we could use an opposite of this - a split template. It wouldn't be hard to do, same code as the Merge template, just can't think of a good theme for a Split template. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:02, 6 August 2009 (CEST)

A template that says something along the lines of "This articles sucks, it fail to meet [[CWCki]] quality standards. You can help by consulting the talk page and improving it" with links to the talk page (around the words "talk page") and a link to the editing page for the article around "improving it." --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:42, 3 August 2009 (CEST)
*Created [[Template:Quality]] as per your specifications. --[[User:Ror|Ror]] 13:01, 27 September 2009 (CEST)
:*Only complaint is that you might want to center the first line, then you'll get the SUPER SPECIAL REQUEST TEMPLATE AWARD. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 15:50, 27 September 2009 (CEST)

Could we have a template for places, real and fictional? --[[User:T K 19|T K 19]] 03:58, 17 November 2009 (CET)
* Hi, I tried to create a template for real places, here it is: [[Template:Places]]. I'll try to create a "CWCverse Locations" template soon. The reason I decided to make them separate, is that as one template it looks too lengthy and overstuffed with information. This is also my first try at creating Templates, so feel free to tweak it in any way, and critique me [[User:GokuGetEm|GokuGetEm]] 14:46, 21 November 2009 (CET)
* ...And here is the CWCverse Locations template: [[Template:CWCverse]]. Again, feel free to tweak 'n' critique [[User:GokuGetEm|GokuGetEm]] 14:58, 22 November 2009 (CET)

A template indicating that the article needs to be updated in light of recent events or videos or whatever. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:13, 31 December 2009 (CET)

A template to indicate that an article needs a summary to summarize its content (like for [[Mailbag]] related articles) - perhaps use a picture of one of the walls of texts from the comic? --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:19, 31 December 2009 (CET)
* [[User:Bleach/Templates/Longarticle|Here you go]]. -[[User:Bleach|Bleach]] 07:23, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

==Gold Star Bounty template requests==
While template [[:Template:OutageCounter]] works if you manually change that date, it's rather a pain to have to remember to manually update it everyday, when it would not be too difficult to do so with MediaWiki software. I found [http://www.mwusers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8709 this] which is of value, and we already have the ParserFunctions here so it's not like cogs has to install anything new.

If anyone can improve this template such that it can work where it'll display the days since 17 September 2009 (or whenever the last outage was), such that it looks roughly like DAYS_SINCE_OUTAGE = LAST_OUTAGE - CURRENT_DAY and allow someone to easily change the value of LAST_OUTAGE, that would be a fun thing to have. It's sorta like one of those "Days without an accident" sign.

Whoever can get it to work like this will get a Gold Star Bounty Award. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 09:25, 19 September 2009 (CEST)

I made a working "days since" counter that is simpler than the above request (all it does is add days every day to the date input to it)
The date can be calculated numerically by using the simple linked calculator.(included in the template's article)
It's currently using 17 September 2009 which is 260.--[[User:Ror|Ror]] 12:01, 27 September 2009 (CEST)

===Completed===
As you may know, Chris has started using the [[CWCipedia]], and now we have Chris's version of the [[Private Villa of Corrupted Citizens]] page. Uncyclopedia has a similar thing for Wikipedia (see [http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Wikipedia here]) that's like "To see what Wikipedia has to say about this, see [link to Wikipedia article]." We could have a similar with like "Chris has discussed this topic on the CWCikipedia's article article on [link topic]" Uncyclopedia templates seem to work very well here with little modification ([[:Template:Award]] was originally from Uncyclopedia) so it'd only need a little tinkering.

Anyone who makes this template gets a Gold Star Bounty award. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 03:10, 29 July 2009 (CEST)
*My first attempt is [[Template:CWCipedia|here]]. I think it needs testing and refining, but it's a start. --[[User:Great Briton|Great Briton]] 01:09, 30 July 2009 (CEST)
