Template talk:User short-sighted2

Whatever happened to the image for this one? Please change it back. The text looks really stupid. If someone wants to make a short-sighted and a near-sighted one that's fine, but don't ruin this one.Maprov 00:29, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. This is ridiculous. If someone wants to make a nearsighted template for users of American English then they should do that and not ruin one which is in real English. I have reverted the template, however, the image has been deleted. -TheCardinal 14:39, 16 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've inserted a magnifying glass because the text made it look as if it's wrong to use the template. I've also changed the text back too. -- Francs 2000

Sorry, "short sighted" means careless in the U.S. Also, farsighted people need magnifying glasses, not nearsighted/short sided people. But I'll leave this one alone, and switch to {{user nearsighted}}. --James S. 21:16, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Short sighted has that meaning in British English as well as refering to 'nearsightedness'. -TheCardinal 01:22, 19 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removed autocategorisation[edit]

I removed the autocategorisation. [1].

The issue is that categorizing by being short sighted has no apparent purpose. Any actual networking would need explanation of intent and scope. That means a signup page, not a category. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 23:42, 3 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
