I'm still Johnny! I just renamed my account so that it links in with what I use on other websites.

Thanks for the change on the M5 page. :) Couldn't find the correct syntax. M5lenzar 20:30, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
My message on Littlewood's page
I was just trying to be polite and assume good faith. Damn.. I just said assume good faith... I've been spending too much time on Wikipedia! The outcome was inevitable really. Jeni 22:19, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- Just don't let the 'keep it active members only' crew find out about this. ;-) Johnny 22:21, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- It isn't a problem, its not like things can't be undone, and generally there is always someone around "with the power", even if its not in their remit to use it in that way. I'd say 1 troll in just under a year is pretty good going! Jeni 22:26, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Chichester, Hampshire?
I noticed on Fishbourne Roundabout that you mention its location as Chichester, Hampshire. According to abcounties.co.uk Chichester is in Sussex. Is the roundabout west of the Hants/Sussex border? M5lenzar 23:28, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Nope, it's in Sussex all the way. The border with Hampshire is a couple of miles to the west. Steven 10:25, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry, it's definitely in Sussex. I copied the template from another junction which was in Hampshire. In fact I noticed my mistake and could have sworn I corrected it! Johnny 14:42, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
Junction bug
Any ideas why when I created Walford Cross it bugged and posted the category at the top of the page? I copied the information from another page which works fine, so I'm not sure where I've gone wrong. M5lenzar 19:54, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- It's because the 'name' parameter was blank. It looks like it categorises it as [[Category:Junctions in South West England|{{{name}}}]], so because you didn't have one it failed. Might be worthy speaking to Jeni about that one as I can't see any reason why it can't be made to function without it. Johnny 20:07, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
- I believe the reason it works like that is because of the bug in categories which caused a lot of junctions to be wrongly filed under M. So I suspect we are stuck with having to put the name in. M5lenzar 21:09, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
User gallery
A simple way to do what you just did is {{Picture gallery|page=Images by Johnny}} :) Jeni (talk) 18:43, 3 September 2010 (BST)
- Is that a new feature, or have I been doing it the long way for ages? Johnny 18:51, 3 September 2010 (BST)
- I always code in a way to override the existing page name in most templates :) It's been there since day one!
- As an example, {{Get Pictures|Images by Johnny}} produces View gallery (415) Jeni (talk) 18:55, 3 September 2010 (BST)
Or there is always {{Gallery|Images by Johnny}} which produces the box on the right! Jeni (talk) 18:59, 3 September 2010 (BST)

View gallery (415)- Very well, I guess it serves me right for trying to do things on my own! Johnny 19:03, 3 September 2010 (BST)
