Member List[edit]

What if we used a format template to dynamically display members? I mainly used this and Help:Template format to write this. I figured I'd start with writing one for the fan server, because it is less complex, and changes more often than the main server. We'd need to add two parameters, YouTube and Twitch, to each member (if applicable). I'm assuming that those include both the URL and name of the channel, which will be displayed as it is now, but it could use the social icons instead or in conjunction the url.

Templates work by assigning the output of a query to a number in the template, so if our query is:

{{#ask:[[Category:Members]][[Server::MindCrack]][[Status::active]]
| ?YouTube
| ?Twitch
| link = none
| template = Active member table
| introtemplate= Member header
| outrotemplate=Template footer
}}

Then the members name will be 1, their YouTube channel 2 and their Twitch channel 3.

Active member table Describes what each result (row) of the table will look like

| {{center}} | [[File:{{{1}}}.png|link={{{1}}}]]<br>[[{{{1}}}]] || {{{2}}} || {{{3}}}
|-

Member header Defines how the wiki table starts and is formatted

<includeonly>
{| class="wikitable mindcrack_members" style="text-align:center;"
! Minecraft<br>avatar and handle || YouTube channel || TwitchTV channel
|-
</includeonly>
</footer>

Template footer Defines how the wiki table is closed

<includeonly>
|}
</includeonly>

Inactive members and No longer whitelisted would be split into two tables, and could be done with a traditional query output.

Video "MindCrack Season 2 Episodes" playlist	Notable events	Featuring

"Minecraft MindCrack - S2E65 - Seeking the source"	Exploring a cave for resources
"Minecraft MindCrack - S2E66 - Client Lag"	Fighting mobs Exploring a cave for resources
… further results

A way to generate the first video in a table cell using a template, since the name could be part of the query result. It would need to be modified to include an "Episode is" parameter for members like adlingtonts to sort correctly, since he had multiple uploads at the same time. "No results found" text would need to be added for individuals like Dinnerbone.

"Minecraft MindCrack - S1E1 - Clausterphobified"

"Minecraft Let's Play 01 - Finding a house part 1"

Dynamic skin image names[edit]

Experimenting with appending member names to queries only in some queries, (so they could show up on activity pages, but not on skin pages) but I think it would require its own template. Ideally caption would look like "VintageBeef: Stone UHC skin" on the UHC page and "Stone UHC skin" on VintageBeef's page.

PauseUnpause UHC
Pyro 0 Spyro skin
Zisteau Ryu skin

Like Member List above, it would need a new template, with gallery opening and closing tags as the intro and outro templates. For this query:

{{#ask:[[Activity is::UHC 10]][[Id::skin]]
| ?Page is
| ?Has Caption
| format= template
| template = Custom gallery
| introtemplate= Gallery intro
| outrotemplate= Gallery outro
}}

Main template would be something like

File:{{{1}}}}.png|{{{2}}}:{{{3}}}

skin lists on member pages would then avoid the mix of name and caption they have now, see VintageBeef's for an example.

Avatar Lists[edit]

We use the avatar lists for a number of pages, including Prank Wars, MindCrack Marathon and for various games, conventions and meetups like Minotaur and MineCon. The lists take awhile to make, and aren't easy to update. Since typically the link structure and order of the images is the same, could we create a template that does it either in the current table format or using a gallery (I think nolines mode would need to be enabled, to get rid of the background). I'd thought of using a query previously, but I think a template similar to the new one for external links would be better. A basic list would be a set width, and show the avatar of and link to the member pages of the specified individuals. Options could give the ability to change the width and set links to prank war pages, etc. To do this a couple images (namely Pyro and Avidya's should be renamed to match the user, and/or the template could utilize a query pulling Id=avatar for the specified usernames.
