Starvin' Marvin's/Talk

This page is for discussing the contents of Starvin' Marvin's.

BradMandell recently updated the page to put data in more compact tables, the hours were presented in a table as shown below.

PeteB had issues with reformatting the data in a table, discussion on the Google Group.

Note from PeteB: Clarification-my concern was lack of discussion before implementing. I requested Brad engage in discussion on the Google group to solicit info/ideas from the community. It was also commented to me privately by a non-google group member that the new template might be too confusing for a new RocWiki user. Overall it's nice though and much cleaner.

RyanTucker felt the hours were a little confusing. Brad put the samples below you can see some alternatives.

The discussion might include addressing further compactness of data by changing the standards for displaying the hours - namely - implement MON, TUE, WED, THU, FRI, SAT, SUN abbreviations.

Could also compact more by switching from

hh:mmAM to hh:mmPM

back to


hh:mmAM-hh:mmPM

I suspect some of those changes could be implemented in an automated process

Another perspective is to do away with hours for any entry that has the hours listed on the website - this would further help with editors having to continually verify and update hours (or the date verified if they are still good).
