Template:This Week's Explanation for Improvement banner

This comic has been selected as This Week's Explanation for Improvement. Anyone is encouraged to help explain this comic! Every little bit counts; even just adding a sentence or fixing a typo is another step towards improving the wiki for everyone. Suggested improvements:   Add links to later comics that reference this same topic.   Focus on explaining rather than describing the scene and background information.   Explain the subtle pun in the last panel.   Copy edit the entire explanation, especially the explanation of the title text.   Convert the explanation into a table so that it can be sorted in alphabetical order and managed more easily.   Categorise this page by adding it to our categories.   Add wikilinks to Wikipedia to allow the reader to learn more about tangential topics.   Add relevant quotes about this comic from the what if? blog and Randall's own Blag.   Reorganise the explanation by moving the most important information to the top.   Last item. This template supports 10 parameters. Click here to get started! If you are new to wiki editing, see our editing FAQ for guidance, or simply learn by doing!

This template displays the large green announcement box used to advertise the current This Week's Explanation for Improvement (TWEFI), on the featured comic's page, on the Main Page, and in the site notice.

Suggested improvement bullets

Up to ten suggestions can be listed inside the box, one per numbered parameter (1 through 10), given either positionally, as in {{This Week's Explanation for Improvement banner|First suggestion|Second suggestion}}, or explicitly numbered, as in {{This Week's Explanation for Improvement banner|1=First suggestion|2=Second suggestion}}; both forms behave identically. Each numbered slot always shows the same icon, whatever text is placed in it.

Parameters 1 to 10 are blank unless filled in, so a nomination only needs to fill in as many slots as it has suggestions for. These ten icons were picked from commons:Wikimedia Codex icons for consistency.

Prose mode

Setting |noicons=yes (or its alias |prose=yes) turns off the numbered, iconed bullets entirely and shows parameter 1 as a single block of free running prose instead, for nominations where splitting suggestions into ten slots would be more awkward than helpful. Any non-empty value for either parameter switches the box into this mode.
