is there an Editors' Page to discuss changes publicly? if not, can we make one? -SamYeager 10:05, 28 Sep 2004 (CEST)
- Go right ahead. I suggest you name it as it is named in the Wikipedia. It might be a good idea to link it from the main page too. Or perhaps from "Community portal". -- SvdB
should we make links to go upwards through menus of items (ie. make a link to "List of Races" from the "Humans" page)? it would make editing many pages easier since we no longer have to backtrack through several pages of blanked-out previews to get to the category we were at. -SamYeager 10:05, 28 Sep 2004 (CEST)
- I think the "Categories" concept suffices for this. Put for instance [[Category:Races]] on the bottom of a page to place it in a category. See Special:Categories for all categories so far.
is there a way to delete empty pages?
- Only for users with Sysop status.
the AllPages is screwed up. i think it's b/c "They" was not previously the first page. how does one fix it?
- It may have something to do with the quotes. It looks like a bug in MediaWiki, the wiki software. I'll have to take a closer look one of these days.
for the WantedPages, do we view pages that have just 1 link to them? it'd be a good way to find misspelled or misdirected links.
- I didn't write the wiki software. It's not a high priority for me to find out where in the code this is handled, and change it.
- Minor fix. See 1 Link Pages from Main Page -SamYeager 10:05, 28 Sep 2004 (CEST)
- I guess it will do as a temporary solution.
- Minor fix. See 1 Link Pages from Main Page -SamYeager 10:05, 28 Sep 2004 (CEST)
how is it the special pages are uneditable?
- Special pages are generated by the server
Are there plans to make the Ultronomicon into a media-rich wiki (or at least one with a few pictures)?
- Yes. And we have permission from TFB to use game images and sound in the wiki.
- Cool. Do you have a timeframe for when you want to start adding graphics? I'd be more than happy to assist, but file uploads are currently disabled. -Fadookie
