"Establishing a standard format"

Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Titles

I wasn't the one who did enchants, but basically, using this title for example:
|-
| the Master of [[Combat Mastery|Combat]]
| <span style="color:blue">Max HP +20<br />Max Stamina +20<br />Strength +10</span><br /><span style="color:red">Intelligence -10<br />Luck -20</span>
that is what is currently in the table format. So, what we'd do is we decide on a standard name for these parameters, like Name, HP, SP, MP, Str, etc; and paste it on a page along the name of Template:DataTitlethe Master of Combat or something. Then we make a Style template, which would include first of all a template for the header (or just include the header in the page) and then a list template like this, which organizes the paramets from the data template, and just on the titles page type something along the lines of "{{Datawhatever|Stylewhatever}}." My main concern would be how to make it so positive numbers appear on top and negative numbers appear on bottom (if we go with the current format and not redesign the template). The advantage of a data/style approach is that if we edit the template, we only have to edit that template and all the entries would automatically follow the new design, rather than manually editing each one every single time. But as Kevin said, each title will probably only ever be used on one page, minus maybe skill titles, so I don't know if it would be that useful.
