What will be the stance on <nowiki><source></nowiki>. I read some arguments against it but I can barely remember them now. It definitely needs some CSS but it is much better than [[Barrel_suicide#Technical|this]]. --[[User:Kyano|Kyano]] ([[User talk:Kyano|talk]]) 10:30, 19 July 2015 (CDT)

: It may be going away when we upgrade next time. The extension has been taken over by a bunch of people with a totally different view on how syntax highlighting should be done who have changed the backing library it uses and the formatting of its output completely and I simply don't feel like keeping up with this kind of crap. --[[User:Quasar|Quasar]] ([[User talk:Quasar|talk]]) 11:02, 16 August 2015 (CDT)
 
  
 
I'd amend the bit about plural to be about '''regular''' plurals. <nowiki>[[mancubus]]i</nowiki>, since we're going with this, isn't going to work better than <nowiki>[[mancubus|mancubi]]</nowiki>. I'd also amend that underscores '''instead of spaces''' are never needed in wiki links, because there are things which use underscores as part of the name (codepointer names, source file names, some nicknames, etc.). Finally, I personally hate putting closing punctuation inside of a quote when it does not belong to it. --[[User:Gez|Gez]] ([[User talk:Gez|talk]]) 11:53, 19 July 2015 (CDT)
