Hello there. One of the [https://wiki.warthunder.com/File:Spitfire_Attack.mp4 movie files] you uploaded a while ago does not seem to be working. Would you like to try to fix it? If not I will remove it. --[[User:U28580205|U28580205]] ([[User talk:U28580205|talk]]) 07:19, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
  
So, after sorting through a lot of the weapon pages here I personally think that for families of weapons firing the same projectiles- e.g. Hispano 404s, Mark Is, Mark IIs and Mark Vs, along with the assosciated AN/M2 and M3 cannons- could have a template that summarises some of the important things about them for easy view.

Yeah, sure, remove it. I just plopped it on youtube anyway. --[[User:U77215690|U77215690]] ([[User talk:U77215690|talk]]) 14:19, 21 October 2019‎  (UTC)
  
If not, at least for the same definite families of cannons we could do something that lets you see a generic guide on their usage. For example I was thinking of creating a "General Guide to World War 2-era 20mm British & French Cannons in War Thunder" on the wiki, since they're all hispanos and they share the same characteristics such as low explosive radii ([0.058, 0.58] for the Hispano's HEFI and [0.033, 0.33] for the HEF-SAPI as opposed to [0.15, 0.75] for an MG-151/20 model's HEI-m shell. Funnily enough, for 20mm cannons, the HEFI shell is actually the second best shell in terms of damage and radius- second '''ONLY''' to the HEI-m mine shot.)

Let me know what you think. I've got a datamine ready to go and a google drive link that I can hand over. give me a ping when you're done. If you require a more active comms source, add me on discord- Aussie_Mantis#5520. Just let me know your tag first beforehand.

Can someone '''PLEASE''' change my page's title to my actual username?

Hello, I noticed that you've started work on the Halifax B Mk IIIa. You're perfectly welcome to add the <nowiki>{{Writing}}</nowiki> template to the page yourself:
 +
* In the wikitext editor - paste <nowiki>{{Writing|~~~~}}</nowiki> at the top of the page
 +
* In the Visual editor - select the first line of the article, press Insert > Template, type "Writing" in the text field and add template, type "1" under Add more information, then type <nowiki>"~~~~"</nowiki> (four tildes) in the text field under "1", and select insert.
 +
Do note that if the page is left untouched for a period of time, the template will be removed so that other users can freely edit the page. Hope this helps, looking forward to seeing your edits. -[[User:U38088265|U38088265]] ([[User talk:U38088265|talk]]) 08:29, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello, regarding collapsible templates, we have both the [[Template:Sp-begin|Sp]] and [[Template:Navigation-Start|Navigation]] sets of templates, hopefully one of those will be suitable for your purpose. A function repository as such doesn't exist, but you may be able to eventually discover whatever it is you're looking for by following the links in [[Help:Wiki map]]. If you need help or have any questions, feel free to ask. - [[User:U38088265|U38088265]] ([[User talk:U38088265|talk]]) 13:08, 21 December 2021 (UTC)

Neither are suitable for my purpose. In the "new page" that I "created", I put the source code that I want to use inside. It's far better than either of the presets, so I was wondering if I could get it added. I like the white, as well as the smoothness of the button :P

Article is in progress template

Hello, I noticed that you've started work on the Halifax B Mk IIIa. You're perfectly welcome to add the {{Writing}} template to the page yourself:

  • In the wikitext editor - paste {{Writing|~~~~}} at the top of the page
  • In the Visual editor - select the first line of the article, press Insert > Template, type "Writing" in the text field and add template, type "1" under Add more information, then type "~~~~" (four tildes) in the text field under "1", and select insert.

Do note that if the page is left untouched for a period of time, the template will be removed so that other users can freely edit the page. Hope this helps, looking forward to seeing your edits. -DnaGonite (talk) 08:29, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
