[edit] Tnavbar-header

I think adding the header (view, discuss, and edit) to the template will invite a lot of vandalism and undesirable changes. Vandals are most often inexperienced users who might have difficulty finding a template in order to change it, but this addition puts the power at their fingertips. After all if you're going to write graffiti, you might as well affect 100s of articles instead of just one at a time.--Appraiser 20:07, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

  • Hi. Is there a way to add show/hide but remove the edit options? Also, links to the captial city seem to have broken sometime today (though I could be mistaken). -Susanlesch 20:38, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • All of the capital links seem to be working fine to me (both in IE and Firefox). What kind of browser are you using? Also, at the discussion Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. states/state templates#Straw Polls, it was agreed not to use the Show/Hide form for these boxes, but you're welcome to continue that discussion either on this talk page or on the other talk page. --CapitalR 23:15, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
  • In Firefox 2.0.0.2 the capital city links don't work on my machine as of this edit. -Susanlesch 06:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Yup, you're definitely right about that screwing up the capital links in FireFox. Right now I have no idea why, so I just turned off the view/talk/edit template until we can get this figured out. I'll do some tests in my sandbox tomorrow to try to fix it. --CapitalR 10:11, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
