I have tried reading around the site for information on how to use the data from /info pages but have not had any luck seeing information on listing descendants. I did try using several words replacing ahnentafel from the generic person page template but only succeed in getting that person and their spouse listed. Is there a place on this site or elsewhere on how we can program our own mini templates to use the information in the info pages? [[User:Elrondlair|William Allen Shade]] 05:31, 19 April 2009 (UTC) |

I have tried reading around the site for information on how to use the data from /info pages but have not had any luck seeing information on listing descendants. I did try using several words replacing ahnentafel from the generic person page template but only succeed in getting that person and their spouse listed. Is there a place on this site or elsewhere on how we can program our own mini templates to use the information in the info pages? William Allen Shade 05:31, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
- Three or four of us were talking about descendancy tables (currently non-existent; your help might be just what we need) in the last week or two. Somewhere on the Watercooler, I expect. — Robin Patterson (Talk) 15:00, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
- Not seeing anything in the watercooler. Where can I see the for the info pages ahnentafel? Maybe if I can see how that looks I can fool around with it. - William Allen Shade 18:27, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
