You need to calm down a bit so you can think straight. You don't like the formatting I added, but claim I have done nothing but complained? Did I format, or did I do nothing? Or is formatting a unique form of complaining?

Also, since we're talking who was "first" now (Why does that even matter?), I offered to implement something, but didn't jump straight in without knowing someone would back me up; I don't care about this enough to do the info-dredging myself, and didn't want to waste my time adding two games, and watching it go precisely nowhere.

Now I did implement something, since I saw there was at least one person around (you) who is (or was, at least) willing to do the information-dredging, so I'm willing to help.
You can do it how ever you want and you can even dig up the info and put it on the wiki also. As far as the descriptions go most of them are copyed from the post about the game. I decided if there was one not to edit it. Maybe we need a seporate Page for Game Engines that don't come with data, and put the engines that come with data just under the game list section. Like I said on the TOC yeah you don't need it but if you have 300 games on this page it is going to be long real long so you have to scroll through even if you know what game your looking for. Either way I really don't care.
You seem to be perceiving this as an attempt to take control of your efforts, and to be "letting go" and claiming you don't care. Whether that's an appropriate reaction to such an attempt or not, that's not what I'm doing.

I'm trying to help; I'm trying to get input to make sure that my "improvements" are in fact generally perceived as such, or if not, removed. I got some criticism from you; I tried to improve my changes to make them a genuine improvement. (I've gotten absolutely no input from anyone else, which is a little disappointing.) So, I'd think, by continuing to discuss this, we could get a working template together that we both (and anyone else who cares, which seem to be scarce for all the traffic this topic has generated in a couple threads) would consider better than the initial layout. But you respond with... well, not a rant, but whatever the above is, declaiming your lack of concern; and that cuts the process short.

So it sounds like this is winding up exactly where I thought it might; I waste my time setting up a template, then the project gets abandoned. At least there are 7 games and 3 emulators, instead of the 2 games I had feared.
