| − | I quite like the layout here, good work Stewart. If we can streamline it a bit more then I'll turn it into templates, then write a tool to dump in as many existing recaps as possible. [[User:Reams|Soo]] 02:49, 9 September 2007 (BST)
| + | This page was assembled from the skeleton data of Mike Brown's [http://www.thecountdownpage.com Countdown Page], and the recap written by Jim Bentley. |

| − | : Thank you. You've probably noticed that I've included other words only where they beat what the contestants found. I don't know if there's a good way to extend it to show more than this (or distinguish between what DC/CV found and other words/solutions found by viewers) without cluttering the layout too much. -- [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] 16:33, 9 September 2007 (BST)

| − | ::I think from an encyclopaedic perspective, it's not worth recording which words DC bother to mention, especially since words get left out of the edit. I think we should list only the longest words from each round (excluding those found be the contestants, obviously.) Within those, maybe we should mark those that beat DC with a star (in case I do something statistical in future.) In general I like the lightweight look of the current page.

| − | :::Have a look at [[Episode 1]] to see how it might work with templates. The numbers rounds are rather painful but overall it's not bad. That would allow us to dump in existing recaps with a lot of structure. Everyone happy? [[User:Reams|Soo]] 00:45, 10 September 2007 (BST)

| − | I've just done [[Episode 4359]] in the new template style. BTW do we have a template for tea-time teasers? We could also do with a house style on how to indicate invalid words, failed numbers solutions, misdeclarations and the like. -- [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] 23:19, 11 September 2007 (BST)

| − | :We don't have a template for teasers yet, but I will write one. For invalid words, I suggest lowercase followed by a cross (☓), and for failed numbers (including by misdeclaration), just follow the declaration by a cross. [[User:Reams|Soo]] 12:03, 12 September 2007 (BST)

| − | ::I forgot to mention, I really like how you've laid out the template parameters. I will modify my recap parser to output in that format. I hope to start uploading the parser's output in the next day or so, so check the example output ([[Episode 4131]]) and let me know soonish if I've missed anything important.
