Template talk:AorB


 * I reloaded several times, and it switched from a (B) to a red A. What are you going to use it for? 00:47, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Its to make something have a 50% chance of being what you enter for A and a 50% chance of what you enter for B. I can't get the parameters to work right though. 14:59, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I know what's wrong. The wiki is reading the HTML and then just taking the and  as is. It isn't reading the input text. The problem here is that the HTML reads before the input can be read, creating a problem. It may be that you just can't make a template out of this. 15:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

I think I found a way to get the inputs out the HTML but it still doesn't appear to be working. 21:07, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Unfortunately, that won't work. In order for it to be input text, it has to be (with the pipe after the one.) Sorry, man, but this can't be a template. You can request to have the  and  things added to the editing formatter at the bottom of the edit pages, though. Sorry. 05:46, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Deletion
I didn't see a clear answer to Axiomist's question. What is this for? Unless it's intended to improve the wiki in some way, it's not required. Especially since it doesn't work in its current form. 21:58, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
 * This template doesn't work, so you can pull the plug. Sorry, Ganondox, but you can't use the randomized coding in a template. It just doesn't work. 17:38, 26 November 2009 (UTC)


 * @ Neo: The staff has decided to keep this page as a place to refer people in the future to show them that it can't be done. That's why it isn't being deleted. 10:38, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

 * If it doesn't work, shouldn't there be text on the page which says it doesn't work? I know they will figure out on their own, but shouldn't we at least try to help them instead of letting them waste ten minutes+ trying to figure it out?  02:39, 27 December 2009 (UTC)  Edit: If it's being kept to show people that randomized choices doesn't work... should it also be protected?  03:17, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * ^That's what I said. 06:10, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * If so, are you going to protect it? 06:15, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Nah, it's deleted. I was telling Mel, that we kept the talk pages to be able to show people that come around later, what happened last time. The actual template isn't needed tho. (and yes, there are others we've done this with) 19:40, 27 December 2009 (UTC)


 * That's settled then. ;) 01:07, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
