Ok, so the new template means that a lot of images won't work because they have been incorrectly named, which means we'll have to upload new images (unless there's a way to change the name of an image). On the plus side, this will get our file names consistent. :s [[User:Levonis|Levonis]] 09:24, 5 November 2010 (UTC) | Ok, so the new template means that a lot of images won't work because they have been incorrectly named, which means we'll have to upload new images (unless there's a way to change the name of an image).

Ability section is broken, just copies from Description and doubles it again in Ability.
Example:
Check the 'edit' of this page, to see that the ability section was written as "|ability=Ability"; Its a nice template if it would work properly! Ceviche 07:18, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Links in ability box are nigh-invisible
i gotta point out that if links are included in a monster description, the link's text is dark blue and thus nearly unreadable against the dark background of the template
as far as i can tell there's no way to fix this from within the template itself, so there's three solutions:
- edit the templates so that the text blocks have a special class THEN edit MediaWiki:Common.css so that anchor tags within that class are yellow or somesuch
- rework the templates so that they're dark text on a light background
- not put links within descriptions on these templates
- number 1 requires an admin to go digging around in the css since that page is protected
- number 2 defeats the whole purpose of having the templates look like the windows in the game itself
- number 3 defeats the purpose of having the information in a wiki in the first place
