Template talk:Equipment Modified Table

From FFXI Wiki

This is almost exactly what I had in mind when I compiled that SIRD list, thank you!
Any chance you can add two more columns? I figure it might break most of the existing individual pages you updated in the last few days so it's a big request, but I think there's enough reasons to justify their addition:

  • |jobs= - seems like the table was designed with something like a JA in mind where the single job is implied, but there's plenty of more general stats where job access actually matters:
  • |notes= - with the idea that |modifier= holds the value, then this second column lets you specify when it applies or if there's a second value. Both of those cases exist:

If it isn't possible, no big deal, but if it's possible, I'd pitch in to help fix the existing tables if they had to get broken for these :P

I saw your table for SIR. I don't think this template is the answer to it. It would be better off as a different one or just a manual table like it is given the limited scope. This is meant to directly augment existing templates. --Spicyryan (talk) 20:12, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

In that case, I'm inclined to create "Template:Statistic Equipment Modified" (or something) with matching table to be used in the more general "equipment stat" cases. Do you just create them as wiki pages of the exact same format as these Equipment Modified Table/Equipment Ability Modified, with the < includeonly > tags with the table formatting inside?-Staplerguy (talk) 20:56, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, can take a look at any of the popularTemplates to see how the transclusion works.

Overall, just keep in mind that sometimes less is more and redundancy isn't a good thing on a wiki. This is part of why the whole piece of gear isn't rehashed in this template here. -- Spicyryan (talk) 22:35, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
