Default A new suggestion for formatting gun pages

Steve has suggested we try a new format for the gun pages which would make them look a bit more organized. It gives us actor names, characters, films, and dates in a much neater fashion. Check out what it looks like on the Colt 1903 page:



I think it's a really good idea, and one that I'd like to start using on our gun pages. What do you guys think?

the second one isn't bad but then we have the issue of multiple actors in a film with the same weapon.

Hmmm, good point. I hadn't thought of that.

I have seen multiple actors on one line in the weapons page and it looks like a mess. We can list the actors on their own line or just list the show on the weapon page and setup more actor pages with the information link from the show page.

I like it but is it going to be hard to remember the code to use it? Because if it is like myspace where you have to remember all this coding to make stuff work, I'll just do what I've been doing.

But I like the second image the best because it lists actors.

You can copy a page that is set up and paste it to a new page or I can set em up and you can add a line like this | [[Lyle Talbot]] || Ted Kord ||[[Shriek in the Night]]||1933. That's all anyone needs to do.
