[edit] stock charts

hai,

i want to create a template for a "stock chart" .please give me necessary "guidance" on this.

thank you.

You need to be much more specific. What do you want to be on this "stock chart template"? Just as a side-note - next time, please dont space out your request like you did - it disrupts the layout of the page. -- Alfakim --  talk  13:34, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Assuming that you want some sort of chart showing the rise and fall of a stock price... wiki templates don't really have that sort of detailed graphing capability and your best bet might be to upload an image to display. If you are talking about something more like statistics for a stock (52 week high & low, P/E, EPS, et cetera) then it could be set up as an {{Infobox}}, but would need to be manually updated. --CBDunkerson 23:56, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Update to protected template

Template talk:US-writer-stub has had an open request for modification since the end of April to change the wording to bring it in line with other such templates. Any help'd be appreciated. GeeJo (t)⁄(c) • 13:03, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

There were requests to change "US" to both "U.S." and "American". I did the latter as that matches the similar Template:US-poet-stub. Also, {{editprotected}} is useful for drawing attention to such requests. --CBDunkerson 23:23, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
A simple request at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Stub sorting would be the best way of getting this quickly fixed. There are many many stub templates, and most of the people patrolling them are far more likely to notice requests at WP:WSS itself rather than on the individual template talk pages.

[edit] Help with an esoteric template

Let me start off by saying I began this template in order to help synchronize various writing system articles, and the template turned out to be much more of a chore than I anticipated. I initially copied it from Template:Infobox Language, thinking I could tweak it, but now I realize that the esoteric code is quite overwhelming to the noobesque computer geek such as myself. I need some help with it. I, as well as other members from Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing systems have outlined parameters on its talkpage and now these plans need to be implemented. Would any wikipedian experienced with esoteric code be willing to help me edit this template? It's a bit of a big deal, we'll probably need another template for the colors if we are to follow the code from Template:Infobox Language. Thank you!-- The ikiroid  23:10, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I made various changes related to this, but could use more guidance on design. See the talk page there. --CBDunkerson 00:36, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
