Topic on Talk:Walton Sports

Currently Walton Sports doesn't have a functioning IRM, just a header and a block of text, so I want to add an IRM in the Filebox format, other options and desciptions of what the filebox format is can be found here: Help:Interdimensional Rumor Mill Guide

What's going into the IRM? If it's just sitting empty there's no real need to set one up IMO; it'll just increase page load times.

I was going to write an IRM for Walton but I figured that I should put the talk page up for installing the IRM before putting the talk page up for the IRM entry so that it wasnt one block of text where installing the IRM might get missed over the IRM entry text

IMO it's better to propose the IRM entry simultaneously. That said, filebox IRMs are generally intended to be full-page IRMs, to prevent reader burnout. What're you thinking as the limit to the IRM entry length to balance burnout against length freedom? Or are you also proposing making Sports' whole page a filebox IRM?

Now that I'm thinking about it what I'm proposing wouldn't lead to a pleasant reader experience. What I was imagining was the main community generated lore, and then under it another separate interpretation of Sports. This doesnt feel like it would fit into any IRM style well and it could get confusing to the reader, I also wouldn't want to turn Sports' entire page into a filebox IRM because it would break the style of the Jazz Hands. So I think I'll shelve this to give it some more thought.

FWIW I've been planning on a revisit of the Jazz Hands' contribution guidelines for during the Not So Grand Siesta, since they do make in-depth alternate interpretations basically impossible with the new IRM expectations. Keep an eye out for that conversation.
