WPSchools Template assistance

Hey JoshLMeyer! Can you help me with a template? I'm working on a proposed template to replace {{WPSchools}}, but I'm out of my league now. Can you check my work at: User:Jh12/WPSchoolTest1 to see if remotely does what I want it to do? I'm trying to add the importance and assessment scales as well as a needs infobox parameter. Go ahead and make any changes if you want, or leave a comment at the bottom of the test page. Thanks a bunch!!! Oh, and feel free to look at this next year!! -Jh12 12:22, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Could you help?

I am trying to set up a small wiki for me and others on this messageboard I post at. I wanted to use Template:Infobox VG and figured that my wiki is the same type as Wikipedia, I could just copy it. However, it's not working: [1], could you maybe help? TJ Spyke 09:00, 10 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Templates - trying to use them for more than I ought to?

Hi, I'm currently trying to knock together a template that operates a bit like a php page, and can't work out how to do it! I wonder if you'd mind seeing if you could suggest anything?

What I want to be able to do is to link years to geological time. I use the template

{{Ma|599.9}}

to produce text like 599.9 million years ago, and I want the number to link to a second template, which produces this:

Timeline

This timeline shows how 599.9 million years relates to the planetary timescale.

599.9 million years ago↓

Millions of years ago

However I only want a link to the timeline - it shouldn't be displayed in the article! So can I generate a link to a page Template:ShowMa?yearsago=599.9 that will generate the template with the specified digits? Or will I have to create a separate page for every year of Earth's long history?

Many thanks!
