Can we do
temporary edits to the template to make it semi-functional

investigating?
It's 5 days since this reminding, a week since the slowness.
We're
missing the
funcionality it provided. So, is there any reason blocking from
restoring it?
(if so, why hasn't been resolved yet? :D)
There was a 'policy' of users don't needing to worry about server issues
('if there aren't enough servers, we will add more'), but here there is
a collision.
Jesus Christ!
I can't say words without having some God-given "policy" read into them.
I quote me: "here there is a collision" between this general guidelines
and this case.
I made a general recommendation not to go running
around saying THE SKY
IS FALLING THE SKY IS FALLING about templates BASED ON SUPPOSITION AND
PARANOIA.
That doesn't mean that AN ACTUAL PROBLEM, WHEN DISCOVERED, SHOULD BE
IGNORED.
WHEN THERE IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM,
THEN IT MATTERS.
IN THIS CASE THERE IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM.
Damn, if i though that
it didn't matter, i would have just reverted it,
or even duplicated, not asking for the opinion of THOSE WHO KNOW.
UNTIL THAT GETS FIXED UP ON THE SOFTWARE END,
Of course, this is what we want: it being solved :D
Brion...
THE PARTICULAR TEMPLATE
WHICH IS AN ACTUAL, REAL, MEASURABLE PROBLEM, TAKING 10-20 SECONDS TO
RENDER, MUST NOT BE WIDELY USED.
...and JeLuF
"As every programmer, a wiki template programmer has to take care of the
efficiency of his code."
I refered to this before.
How is the efficiency of the templates measured? Apart of just trying it
and waiting to see if servers go down :P
Diclaimer:
I didn't code it, i didn't even watched its source until today. I don't
say it to be a good style. It isn't easy to completely understand. I
have even found what seems to be bugs.
So don't eat me!
I know there's a problem. What is being done about it? What can we do to
help with it? How do we do it?
