| − | ==Shaman redirects==
| + | :''Response: [[User talk:John Sevier#Misspelled SCS page]]'' |
| − | Re: [[Shaman]]. Yeah, my thinking was redirecting the village shaman names to the shaman page since they aren't moving right now. However, I think it is beneficial to keep the wandering shaman articles listed individually so that chronological reports can easily be made and very geeky shaman tracking data can be extrapolated. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 04:46, 23 May 2006 (BST)
| |
| | | | |
| − | :You're right, tracking them over time would be interesting and probably insightful. How about redirecting their pages to [[Shaman]] and tracking them by commenting out previous date/time information each time the table is updated? The advantages would be that we would have all shaman information in one place and that each sighting would require only one edit. It'd be tricker to update, but not terribly difficult. A few comment tags in the code and an explanation in the article should be enough for most users to understand the process. — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 04:54, 23 May 2006 (BST)

| | | | |
| − | ::I'm not sure if the current table layout would work because it would become increasingly difficult to dig through the growing commented code to record new data. Will the data be stored under headings for each shaman to allow for quick section edits? --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 05:12, 23 May 2006 (BST)
| |
| | | | |
| − | :::Yes, code clutter could be a problem. I think the best way to limit it would be to leave the current table alone and put a big comment tag under it. It would look something like this (feel free to edit this yourself):
| + | I uploaded the images to put on the clan's wiki page but removed them once I'd found better ones or had changed my mind. I don't plan on using the three in question any time soon so feel free to delete them from the wiki if you like. I'm sorry if this has been an inconvenience and will try to be more frugal in deciding what images to upload and making sure they're all in the public domain. -Tyler Whitney (12, August) |

| − | :::This would be accompanied by a note on the article: "When you see one of these [wandering] shamans, please edit this article and move the old GPS and time to the 'Previous Sightings' comment tag that you will see." Even if we don't do this, wandering shamans should get their own section in order to make updates easier to make and also easier to summarize (since edit summaries for section edits automatically start with the section's name).
| |

| − | :::BTW, I previously changed "coordinates of spring" to "coordinates" because springs are invisible and inseparable from their respective village shamans. Traders, on the other hand, can apparently leave their huts, which is why the related column header on [[Trader]] reads "coordinates of hut". — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 05:38, 23 May 2006 (BST)

| − | ::::I was just thinking... We could tear down the existing shaman pages to list only the most recent coordinate and timestamp. Then we hide the past positions wrapped in a <nowiki><noinclude></nowiki> tag. We then reference the individual pages using the composite page mechanics on the Shaman page. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 06:02, 23 May 2006 (BST)

| − | :::::''Beautiful''. If that works, and I don't see why it shouldn't if we use the <nowiki><nowiki> and <noinclude></nowiki> tags properly, the current locations of wandering shamans would be shown on [[Shaman]] and their rovings (and current positions) would be displayed on their respective pages. That sounds like a great plan. — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] 07:31, 23 May 2006 (BST)

| − | :Hah. Yes, I had a sudden urge to change the capitalization when I saw your edit for Tips and Tricks linking to the UI article. But then I was suddenly struck by seeing how practically nothing links to that page and I couldn't really forsee anything else really linking to it in the future. I settled on leaving things as they are for now. I think the current assortment of articles with multiple capitalization - Character Classes, Game Design, Requests for Information, Search Odds Condensed, Tips and Tricks, Trading Hut Stock Reports, and User Interface - are acceptable since they are not as widely referenced as others (though Character Classes might need a Class redirect). I just don't see a pressing need to retroactively enforce the lower-casing policy right now. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 08:48, 27 May 2006 (BST)
| |
| − | ::''Response: [[User talk:Lint#Capitalization and article names]]''
| |
| − | :::Please feel free to do so, I see no problem with reasonable article renaming. I guess the Clan categorization needs to be taken care of sooner rather than later as it will be quite a chore to do anything about it in the future. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 09:37, 27 May 2006 (BST)

| − | == Links and redirects ==
| |
| − | Looking at the links on the Writing page is a bit of a nightmare. While they helpfully point the reader to the proper location, they become a little unwieldly when moving pages around. We have redirects for items and terrain, I say we might as well use them. I'm also considering creating redirects for AP, HP, and XP to Gameplay. Sound sensible? --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 00:00, 28 May 2006 (BST)

| − | :Prior to utilizing the Category_talk:Delete page as a deletion log, I was considering setting something up like Project:Deletions, but it seemed too formal (and like too much work). But the argument that a hub would reduce unnecessary page creation and be easier to keep track of makes sense. Feel free to start it up, if you'd like. --[[User:Lint|Lint]] 01:41, 12 June 2006 (BST)

| − | == How to capitalise skill names like First Aid (vs first aid) ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Simon weighed in in favor of all lowercase (except for the first word) when referring to skill names, and he changed the appearance of Shartak profiles and Shartak skill pages to use an all lowercase standard. Since this is also de facto universal wiki standard, this strongly favors switching over to all-lowercase skill names throughout the wiki. Let me know if you have opinions.

| − | :You're right, it had a bug that prevented it from logging via the URL argument. It's fixed now; sorry about the trouble. My first thought for an accompanying Greasemonkey script was to have a "(log this kill)" link next to the text that appears when you kill someone, but it'd be more useful to have a link like that on profile pages. (A "See logged deaths and kills" button would also be added in that case.) I'm pretty sure two scripts would be required to put links on profile pages and in-game ones, and I don't want to mess with that, so I'll probably just write one script to make the buttons appear on the profile page. — [[User:Elembis|Elembis]] ([[User talk:Elembis|talk]]) 19:39, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

| − | == Delete-marked redirects ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Redirects marked for deletion (about 75 of them) are cluttering up the deletion page and the deletion discussion, making it difficult to find discussion of possible deletion for pages that actually matter. In my opinion, redirects are pretty trivial and I could take them or leave them (and imho our policy should be informed in part by whether new editors keep trying to add them back after deletion). By comparison, there are proposed deletions of pages that actually have (or historically had) content. Since it's been more than a month for Redirects, I propose that we Keep the Keeps, Delete the Deletes, clean them all off the Category:Delete page, and move on. --[[User:Tycho44|Tycho44]] 05:29, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
