[edit] Template

I am working on an infobox template for lighthouses, currently in my sandbox, and am seeking feedback. Please leave comments here, as the template will be moving. KillerChihuahua?!? 14:07, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

I personally prefer to use "thumb" for image size so as not to overwhelm the page display at low screen resolutions. Another option in the info box could be a location map. I've added one to Cape Florida Lighthouse as a test. -- Dalbury(Talk) 15:27, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
The reason the size is set by px is due to the table size being set - it will do weird things otherwise. KillerChihuahua?!? 16:30, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
OK. -- 16:42, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Fireplaces?

I would like to see some justification for putting Category:Lighthouses in Category:Fireplaces -- Donald Albury(Talk) 19:24, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

So would I. Not all places with fire are fireplaces. The creator of the Fireplaces category seems a bit overzealous in populating it with articles. For instance, Oxy-fuel welding and cutting and Dutch oven. --Rob Kennedy 21:19, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Seems to be a rather broad interpretation of 'fire'-'place'. -- Donald Albury(Talk) 03:54, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
