One more thing, sorry to bother you so much (if the page was not protected I would do it myself), could you add a couple more notes to the banner (not C_NOTE, just regular notes). Thanks a lot. — [[User:Parent5446|Parent5446]] [[User talk:Parent5446|☯]] <sup class="plainlinks">([{{fullurl:User talk: Parent5446|action=edit&editintro=User:Parent5446/MediaWiki/TalkPageInstructions&section=new}} message] [[Special:Emailuser/Parent5446|email]])</sup> 19:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

:I'm reluctant to do this because you can achieve the same effect with 'bolt on' code on {{para|BOTTOM_TEXT}}. I think I'll cook up an "extra notes" 'module' to hang on that parameter, with the same syntax as the normal notes; that will avoid increasing the bytecount for other projects.

::Ok, I've had a closer look at the syntax I've already got, and the easiest thing to do it just to call {{tlx|WPBannerMeta/note}} directly with its internal parameters. So syntax like this:

<pre>{{WPBannerMeta

|PROJECT =

|BANNER_NAME = {{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}

|small={{{small|}}}

|nested={{{nested|}}}

|category={{{category|μ}}}

....

|NOTE_5 = yes

|note 5={{{**PARAMETER**|}}}

|NOTE_5_TEXT = Foo bar lorem ipsum

|NOTE_5_IMAGE = Foo.jpg

|NOTE_5_SIZE = 30px

|NOTE_5_CAT = Somecat

|NOTE_5_FORMAT =

|BOTTOM_TEXT = <!--

-->{{WPBannerMeta/note

|note={{{**PARAMETER**|}}}

|NOTE_TEXT = More text

|NOTE_IMAGE = Example.jpg

|NOTE_SIZE = 25px

|NOTE_CAT = AnotherCat

|NOTE_FORMAT =

}}{{WPBannerMeta/note

|note={{{**PARAMETER**|}}}

|NOTE_TEXT = More text

|NOTE_IMAGE = Example.jpg

|NOTE_SIZE = 25px

|NOTE_CAT = AnotherCat

|NOTE_FORMAT =

}}

}}<noinclude>

{{subst check|{{subst:FULLPAGENAME}}}}

</noinclude>

</pre>

::Can be repeated as often as desired to add more notes. It's actually a lot simpler than I expected! Note that since you're using (abusing really, but it does the job <tt>:D</tt>) an internal template, there are no numbers in the parameters. Hope this makes sense - let me know if you have any problems. <font color="forestgreen">[[User:Happy-melon|'''Happy''']]</font>‑<font color="darkorange">[[User talk:Happy-melon|'''melon''']]</font> 11:14, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
