Hinduism

For consistency with other Hinduism-related content, thank you to change

["hinduism"] = "Aum Om red.svg|link=|alt=",

to

["hinduism"] = "Om symbol.svg|link=|alt=",.

The two symbol images only differ slightly in colour shade, but the latter file is almost exclusively used in Hinduism-related articles and templates.

Thank you. — kashmīrī ^TALK 12:18, 28 April 2018 (UTC)

Madagascar Portal

• Change: The image for the Madagascar portal
• To: The image with a visible border
• Because: The image does not appear to have a border when users do Madagascar portal, although the border tag is used.
• How: I am unsure. If this image does not work (since it already has the portal tag) you could use the bordered flag at https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Madagascar_(bordered).svg

Thanks, --Jingle535 (talk) 00:13, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

P.S. Sorry if this is wrong, its my first time. Also a big odd box appeared above my request, sorry if that is not supposed to be there.

The big odd box is supposed to be there because it attracts template editors to your request (like moths are attracted to light). In the portal box to the right I can see a thin border, is this sufficient? I'm not sure why the inline version omits the border but perhaps that is deliberate. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 11:22, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

@Mr. Stradivarius: please can you comment on the border issue? — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 06:37, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

@MSGJ and Jingle535: The border doesn't appear when you use Template:Portal-inline because it uses the p._image function in Module:Portal, and that function is designed to get the image name only, without any border, alt= or link= options. Whether this is a good design decision, I'm not sure. I'm guessing that some code somewhere depends on p._image returning only the image name, though. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 08:28, 1 May 2018 (UTC)

@Mr. Stradivarius: (Thank you for both for your responses and Stradivarius for your welcome to me.) Although I am highly ignorant, it would appear that you have significant experience and edits with Portal, and a fair amount with Portal Inline. Because of this I think you would have reasonable authority to change portal inline so that it would allow for borders, if this is possible and should be done (however if you do not want to do this because the amount of possible work that is understandable). If you do not want to change the template then could you just change the image for Madagascar so that it has a border? The page Subfossil lemur was recently featured and in the 'see also' section the flag of Madagascar was very peculiar looking because of the lack of border. — Jingle535 (talk) 21:45, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
