Is there a neater way to switch between the US and European place names, e.g. Outset vs Aboda? The current method looks a bit messy and confusing so someone who is only familiar with the names from their own region. Maybe a selector a bit like the control selector? --[[User:Pelago|Pelago]] 23:15, 29 January 2010 (UTC) | Is there a neater way to switch between the US and European place names, e.g. Outset vs Aboda?

:Putting "Aboda/Outset" in the guide doesn't seem that bad to me. In a different guide we used refs pointing to region differences in a notes section at the bottom of the page. It might be more confusing, since you'd just see "Aboda<sup style="color:blue">[1]</sup>" instead. In the past we've always stayed away from using the control selector for anything but console vs console differences. This keeps coming up though, so eventually we're going to have to find a way to deal with this or open up the control selector to be more general. — [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 23:33, 29 January 2010 (UTC) | |||

US vs European place names
Is there a neater way to switch between the US and European place names, e.g. Outset vs Aboda? The current method looks a bit messy and confusing so someone who is only familiar with the names from their own region. Maybe a selector a bit like the control selector? --Pelago 23:15, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
- Putting "Aboda/Outset" in the guide doesn't seem that bad to me. In a different guide we used refs pointing to region differences in a notes section at the bottom of the page. It might be more confusing, since you'd just see "Aboda[1]" instead. In the past we've always stayed away from using the control selector for anything but console vs console differences. This keeps coming up though, so eventually we're going to have to find a way to deal with this or open up the control selector to be more general. — najzereT 23:33, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
