Religion should be a separate category. And who would have thought that my fate, it would conjure this twist in the road on which I have wandered?Each vision and dream now completely dismembered, to give one's whole life and find nothing's remembered...And what good is a life that leaves nothing behind? Not a thought or a dream that might echo in time

Definitely. There are no flowers, no not this time. There will be no angels gracing the lines, just these stark words I find.

Wiki categories

Post by Kaiser Los III »

Can people start putting their wiki articles into categories? There are currently Records, Laws, History, Fiction , International - most of the stuff people are writing now seems like either History or Fiction or both. I am thinking about maybe making religion a separate category - do you think that is a good idea, or should it go in Fiction?To put something in a category, you use the following tag:[[category:History]]If it goes in more than one category, just use two tags.

We ought to have a category for Subdivisions, and I created another and now I can't remember what it was.We ought to have one specifically for Citzens and other people as well. While some of them might be history, lot's of us aren't (yet). 3e knowe ek that in fourme of speche is chaunge / With-inne a thousand 3eer, and wordes tho / That hadden pris now wonder nyce and straunge / Us thenketh hem, and 3et thei spake hem so, / And spedde as wel in loue as men now do...

Oh yes, it was [[Category:Government]].Honestly, I am curious, who decided to create a Fiction category and not a Government cat? 3e knowe ek that in fourme of speche is chaunge / With-inne a thousand 3eer, and wordes tho / That hadden pris now wonder nyce and straunge / Us thenketh hem, and 3et thei spake hem so, / And spedde as wel in loue as men now do...

That was me. I was thinking of History as inclusive of all sorts of government/personal stuff, but your way is better.

Request - would people stop making pages for something unless they're going to add information (for example, I see the page for Renee just says "Female".) When you do that it lists them as having a page and if I want to write pages that don't exist it's not marked as being empty. Having those little one word pages really isn't helping anyone.

Mine's gonna get filled, just wait. Oh, and has anyone found out if it's possible to have it automatically link to all pages with links without having to go out and see if they exist? They call it a signature, but no one ever signs their posts...

So I shouldn't make pages with the entire content of "NEED ARTICLE"?...can I make myself a to-do list, within ShireWiki? And who would have thought that my fate, it would conjure this twist in the road on which I have wandered?Each vision and dream now completely dismembered, to give one's whole life and find nothing's remembered...And what good is a life that leaves nothing behind?

*shrugs, has next to no knowledge of Wikipedia*Wouldn't it be better for Fax to write things on his own computer and complete them before putting them up as opposed to putting up a rushed version and then having to add to it later on, which just fills up the Wiki with short, facetious entries such as "Wombat" (Not that Fax wrote that, as far as I know, just an example of what will happen if people are in a hurry to create entries without the necessary content..)?

That's why I did this: http://www.shireroth.org/wiki/in...les_NeededAnd no, I didn't do the "Wombat" thing.

The Halluci WIKI is up, Hypatia, I left a link for a Temple of Ryvenna, and whoever runs the boomists I left a link there too.
