Template talk:Succession box

Someone better at formatting than me needs to format this into a box or something :-P --Tony^converse! 11:56, 2 December 2008 (PST)

Use in The Fragile (halo)?

Seeing as the various versions of TF have different tracklisintgs, do we use a succession box for each format, for each disc/tape/record, or just mark the numbers differently?

For example, Please:

From ***"The Fragile"***
Preceded by:	The Mark Has Been Made (CD+Cassette) 10 Miles High (Vinyl)
Track Number:	17 (CD+Cassette) 18 (Vinyl)
Succeeded by:	Starfuckers, Inc

or

From ***"The Fragile Right (CD) Tape 2 (Cassette) Side E (Vinyl)"***
Preceded by:	The Mark Has Been Made (CD+Cassette) 10 Miles High (Vinyl)
Track Number:	17 (CD+Cassette) 18 (Vinyl)
Succeeded by:	Starfuckers, Inc

Or shall we simply assume that the CD is being used (this brings problems for tracks that feature only on the vinyl of course) sheepdean ^{is in your base}_{killing your d00ds} 09:12, 31 March 2009 (PDT) Also:

From ***"The Fragile Right (CD)/Tape 2 (Cassette)"***
Preceded by:	The Mark Has Been Made
Track Number:	17
Succeeded by:	Starfuckers, Inc

From ***"The Fragile Side E (Vinyl)"***
Preceded by:	10 Miles High
Track Number:	18
Succeeded by:	Starfuckers, Inc

Use in non-studio albums?

Should we use the box for live albums and seeds? This would obviously create the problem of very cluttered song pages, but it may be of interest for some people. And Still, is hard too, it features tracks previously featured, so those songs would get double boxed ... ideas? sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 03:50, 1 June 2009 (PDT)

Succession box mk.2

My idea for a better-looking succession box (and seasons - it can be placed at the top, but the only code to force it there screw up the page more than you can imagine, so it's either a manual move or Tony installs some javascript

Previous track - "{{{before}}}"

Track {{{track}}} from {{{title}}}

Next track - "{{{after}}}"

Yay or nay? sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 04:32, 4 June 2009 (PDT)

tbh, i prefer the info boxes on Wikipedia (for albums, admittedly). augmenting the ones we have now to include successions and album art would look way better than separate boxes, imo. i think they're pretty barren without album art, and to make a comprehensive songbox including its title, album, album or song art, length, remixes, and succession patterns seems like a superior idea to me - if it works with the song page layouts (i.e. doesn't introduce vast whitespace). - Seasonsinthesky 07:57, 4 June 2009 (PDT)
