Frivolous Formatting edit
- Please delete the margin-top: 1em;. The extra white space confuses readers and is unnecessary.24.65.69.8 01:41, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
Why have element IDs? edit
This template currently produces a span like one of these:
-->{{#if:{{{image_r|}}}<!--
-->|<span id="imageRight">[[File:{{{image_r}}}|x48px|alt=|link=]]</span><!--
-->|<span id="noimageRight"> </span><!--
-->}}<!--
What is the purpose of the id attribute here? It doesn't seem to be referenced in any stylesheet, script, or gadget (that I can find), and it causes errors when multiple licenses are present on one page (or on separate pages that are transcluded/exported into one, such as via tools:wsexport).
I propose that these are turned into class attributes.

- I concur. I see no reasons to use
idattributes here, and several reasons why we shouldn't. --Xover (talk) 05:42, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
