Don't revert the whole thing!

Only one color was actually changed, and is noted in the template. The rest are new and necessary. I don't see any discussion for it, but if you don't like the new color, then change only that one. Potapych (talk) 17:45, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Those colors are perfectly safe. See the notes, where the Typhoon color is the only one affected. When there's a whole page of these infoboxes, it will be better than the pink one. It doesn't look like most of these colors were discussed in the first place. For example, a Category 1 storm in Australia would usually be equivalent to a tropical storm in the Atlantic, but it was assigned the color for a US category 1. That does not make sense. I did not change the value for cat1, but created a new label Aus1, and assigned it to the value for a tropical storm. So the only template affected at this point is the one that I am working on. The small infobox has too much US bias, so I am putting together a different one. I need new colors/labels to accommodate some of the other international scales. Potapych (talk) 18:16, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

It really makes no sense to have a debate over something that affects nothing except something that is currently in the works. Both you and Titox reverted the edits before trying to understand any part of the issue. Obviously you can't work on anything with this project without someone asserting their ownership of it. I'm sorry I ever tried. Potapych (talk) 04:03, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Yes, you and another editor are trying to freeze the project in a particular state. Other editors have added to that template before, and my edits had safely preserved everything that depended on the template, so you had no reason to revert them. The code is confusing (and illogical) because you will NOT allow anyone to address it. Here's the reason I know you didn't look at what you reverted - the colors I added were based on the ones used for the SSHS. There was no new scale because they all fit within the range of existing colors. When I was working on the template I ran out of existing colors, and realized everything outside of the US region was arbitrarily assigned. Anyway, I was doing this voluntarily, and I don't want to waste time on something this pointless.Potapych (talk) 05:39, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
