CSS

Is the CSS on the Wiki different to normal CSS in any way? I know a little CSS so I though I would decorate my userpage, but I didnt know if it was different on here. Thanks!
Bananaandchoc1 (talk | contribs) 19:39, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

Well, we don't use CSS (in the normal way, at least). Here's an example of how you would style text:

<span style="color:purple;font-family:Georgia">Hello</span>

produces

Hello

If you'd like to add CSS for the whole wiki that only you can see, though, that is done using normal CSS, in your common.css file.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 19:44, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

So I guess we kind of use CSS, but kind of not.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 19:45, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

Ahh, thank you!

(by the way, is there a reason why you want the template substituted rather than transcluded?)
Groko13 (talk | contribs) 20:58, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

Alright, I'll check it out soon. As for why I want it substituted, it's so that if the template changes over time, previous substitutions will stay the same.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 21:05, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

I find it interesting how on the Scratch Wiki we tend to have a bias towards transcluding talk page templates, whereas on Wikipedia it's the opposite (there tends to be a bias towards substituting them). At least, that's what I've observed from my time on both sites.
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 21:14, 29 June 2020 (UTC)

...not that there aren't upsides and downsides to both, but on here almost everyone transcludes, for example, welcome templates, whereas a lot of templates are supposed to be substituted on Wikipedia.

DIS

Hi! I made a second DIS so I could spread the load. I just wanted to ask you if it's fine or I need to remove it.
Garnetluvcookie (talk | contribs) 18:33, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

I mean, you can use anything I create with credit, but I don't really see the point. This is supposed to be one system for the whole Scratch Wiki. If enough people like the idea, hopefully it can be moved to "Scratch Wiki:" space (project space).
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 18:39, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

(Also, I got the idea from Wikipedia anyway.)
bigpuppy talk ▪︎ contribs 18:42, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, it might get a little confusing if there's two of them. Plus, we don't really have much of a "load" right now.

Profile picture

Bigpuppy: How do I choose a picture for my profile?

                           Thanks so much,

Hello, Dude613. Do you mean how do you upload a picture to the Scratch Wiki, or how do you set your profile picture on Scratch? Your current signature fetches your Scratch profile picture.
