Template talk:Outdent

Functionality
Can confirm that this works almost as expected. It does not outdent back to the far left corner. See. -Xolroc (talk) 14:44, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
 * From your link it seems you've been using  without specifying a number (such as  ). I guess that's where the problem is. Well, I may have misunderstood. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 16:34, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Nope, it doesn't seem like  or   fixes it. Shame. NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 16:48, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I just used, yes.  That's how it works on... I forget which, but another wiki.   would automatically go all the way back to no indent, and  would return to no indent (by simply doing nothing) and insert "(←)" to indicate that an outdent had been used.  Which might be an easier way to implement outdents here, to be honest! -Xolroc (talk) 17:35, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
 * On further inspection it appears the tables are causing the issue - adding a note about it in the documentation. As for "(←)", I reckon that'd be Template:Outdent2. Maybe that should be copied as well? NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 17:42, 12 June 2014 (UTC)
 * I'd recommend it; it'd probably be a lot simpler to code and more reliable in situations like this. -Xolroc (talk) 17:56, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Upon even further inspection it seems the issue is caused by the infoboxes inside the collapsible tables. I came to remember that this table does not cause any issues, nor does it do when turning it collapsible (in preview). The issue arises when inserting an infobox (copying from Terraria_Wiki_talk:Community_portal). The same issue is seen in this case, hence it seems that nested tables (the infobox is a table too) combined with indentation is the actual problem. Solutions may be to possibly use other ways of indentation (here is a list I found). Using a  margin seems to work well (example). NoseOfCthulhu (talk) 21:21, 15 June 2014 (UTC)
