:Yes, but, I have realised that the whole ref template thing is a bad idea.  MediaWiki simply cannot handle that many switches.  Therefore I wrote an extension to do the same job, where there would actually be a single file (it is still with us, just see: [[MediaWiki:AppearRef/comics]]).  But the Wiki went seriously slow when I put it up, so I pull it again.  Now I realise it wasn't my extension's fault, but rather the fact that I was changing the layout for a very used template, meaning that it had to update all the references, something that could take a while.  I may revert the C template back to new extension soon, but probably during periods where there are fewer visitors.  Or something. --'''[[User:Svip|Svip]]'''<sup>[[User talk:Svip|Talk]]</sup> 13:11, 30 June 2008 (BST)

Yes, but, I have realised that the whole ref template thing is a bad idea. MediaWiki simply cannot handle that many switches. Therefore I wrote an extension to do the same job, where there would actually be a single file (it is still with us, just see: MediaWiki:AppearRef/comics). But the Wiki went seriously slow when I put it up, so I pull it again. Now I realise it wasn't my extension's fault, but rather the fact that I was changing the layout for a very used template, meaning that it had to update all the references, something that could take a while. I may revert the C template back to new extension soon, but probably during periods where there are fewer visitors. Or something. --SvipTalk 13:11, 30 June 2008 (BST)
