Wiki: Category

[Lachlan Powers]

May I suggest the adding of a new category - countries - on the front page for all the national pages to be linked to. Pages like Shireroth and Aerlig dont really fit on the Government page as they are about the country as a whole. ejen ranti taicardainre (Lachlan Powers)The Grand Commonwealth - Aerlig - MNN - Treesia - mncentre - EIFA - Lemuria

Sounds grand, but Minfo isn't supposed to be doing things like this. The Wiki is supposed to be MORE territory. They call it a signature, but no one ever signs their posts...

It's meant to be MoRE territory, but seeing as it hasn't been officially granted to MoRE control and it's still part of the website, I think it's Minfo's affair.That said, is Shyriath even a moderator?

[Lachlan Powers]

Well there was a wiki logo with this forum, so I posted here :P ejen ranti taicardainre (Lachlan Powers)The Grand Commonwealth - Aerlig - MNN - Treesia - mncentre - EIFA - Lemuria

That should be fixed.However, Shyriath is a moderator. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

Grand, and so it should be if the switch in management is ever going to take place. For the moment though, such a practical change should be made ASAP, and our good friend Moose is more active than our other good friend the MoRE, neh?

1.The logo is the Minfo logo, since the Shirewiki is now the Microwiki.2.If we want to start making it MORE territory, we should start now.3.It's not an administrator thing, anyway. Anyone can take it upon themselves to change the articles in question. The most you'd need is permission, and if it's worth anything, I approve. They call it a signature, but no one ever signs their posts...

lol, I thought we needed permission to change the front page. I will fix it myself ejen ranti taicardainre (Lachlan Powers)The Grand Commonwealth - Aerlig - MNN - Treesia - mncentre - EIFA - Lemuria

Eh, damned hasty youngsters. Always rush, rush, rush. If you'd waited a few more hours...I knew MoRE had a stake in the Wiki, and even more of one than I've been fulfilling lately, but I wasn't quite aware that it was supposed to be MoRE territory. Or that it was even particularly going to be switched to MoRE territory, especially with all the recent talk of making it independent and such. ...Maybe my memory's just being uncooperative again?...At any rate, if someone asks for something like this to be done, and I'm around, and no one else has done it yet, then by all means I'll do it. Especially if i'm supposed to be doing it. But due to a combination of sleeping late, mowing the lawn, my mom wanting me to do stuff with her, and trying to find stuff for the issue of the View I'm doing tonight, I didn't get to see this one until quite late.

You do need permission to change the Front Page. Changing the category thing on every page, however, is something you can do.There's about 50 categories, only 11 of which are on the front page. That list is getting a bit long. They call it a signature, but no one ever signs their posts...

[Fax Celestis]

Have you SEEN the list of categories at Wikipedia? We've got nothing. Viatax Sitadi Axdivijink Regigoraauk

[Fax Celestis]

Yup.You do this:[[category:Fiction]][[category:Hunters of the Stag]][[category:Horjinic Magic]]Etc.It is also possible to categorize categories. For instance, the category Horjinic Magic, has [[category:Hunters of the Stag]] in its actual text, which designates it as a sub-category of Hunters of the Stag. And so on and so forth.

List on the front page, that is.Also, is it possible to have an article under multiple categories? They call it a signature, but no one ever signs their posts...Edited by: osmose1000  at: 10/5/05 12:54

Changing the front page was what I asked... Nations seemed like a much needed category now that it is international. I did add it in there, as the first one since it is probably the starting point when looking for knowledge (you go to the country first) and I changed the tags on quite a few of the national pages. ejen ranti taicardainre (Lachlan Powers)The Grand Commonwealth - Aerlig - MNN - Treesia - mncentre - EIFA - Lemuria

Niftiness.
