[edit]  ?

I just spent ten minutes expanding and adding references to the article... and it never saved my changes. So I started again and did half an hours work adding even more information and references... and it lost it again! Arrrrgh. PageantUpdater 02:25, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

I hate it when that happens! Dreadstar † 17:57, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

I tried to make changes also. It didn't save mine either. Anyone know what to do? 128.192.236.171 21:01, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] TOC

I added the "states" style of TOC to see how that worked, the original default TOC was rather long. The only issue with the states-style is when there is no section on the particular state. Perhaps this could be addressed by adding a list of states with no winner - perhaps including some kind of status on those states so it doesn't appear to be a negative comment about that state.

We can also try a different compact style, such as: {{compactTOC5T}}. For a more complete list of compact TOC styles, see Compact TOC's Dreadstar † 16:56, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks... this is a vast improvement :) The main problem is that I just haven't had time to complete all the states... I'm working away at plugging the gaps bit by bit but it's going to take a while. Not exactly sure what to do in the meantime. PageantUpdater 21:15, 21 July 2007 (UTC)

Any way to get DC in the template? --After Midnight ⁰⁰⁰¹ 02:26, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Yes, you can add to the list. I added Washington, DC and put the section heading at the end of the list. You can move the section, and/or rename it. {{TOCStates|before=|after=[[#Washington, DC|Washington, DC]]|noendlinks=}} – Dreadstar † 03:20, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I fixed the name. This is definitely an improvement on the original TOC :) PageantUpdater talk • contribs 03:22, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
