:::Alright, drop the personal attacks. Helianthus has been commendably polite to you and all this complaining isn't helping people take your case seriously at all. Going back to your revisions to the template, I'm not sure why it needs a box or why the text in the first field should be in bold. The box only makes the template stand out more than it needs to and the bolded text feels off. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 00:30, 15 December 2014 (EST)

:::I apologize for not recognizing that earlier. As I'm not so technically inclined as yourself or our staff of other like-minded individuals, I do not feel like it is my place to chime in with any knowledgable input. What I do lack in knowledge of HTML and such languages, however, I attempt to make up for it in organizing a community effort at the smallest levels to ensure everyone can be on the same page. This is what I was trying to encourage, and despite my ignorance to your previous response, there was absolutely no need for you to speak provocatively. As for my perceived inexperience, while this account is indeed brand new, I previously contributed under the username Grizzlei for a couple years. {{User:Helianthus/Sig}}

::::@Jugus: The box can be removed (even if it was intended to stand out, so readers can see the disambiguation articles more clearly), along with the bold face (even if it helps to quickly inform readers what the article they have opened is about, if they happen to be on the wrong page), but to completely remove the additional parameters of the template rather than simply removing the aforementioned is ridiculous, especially when the additional parameters enable the extended usage of the template, in place of typed up, Disambig header replacement text (refer to [[Forerunner]], [[John Forge]] and [[Sierra 117]] prior to my revisions).
::::@Grizzlei: Why make another account? Regardless, this didn't warrant this drawn out discussion. Spartacus or Jugus could have simply removed the box and bold face, as the main purpose of my revision was to add the additional parameters so I could then go through pages with typed up Disambig header text in place of the actual template, in an attempt to keep things consistent.
