Spring talk:WikiEtiquette

Jump to navigationJump to search

A nice idea knorke and looks good.

Couple of points:

  • when editing templates you have to save page (not preview) to get the changes to propagate (As can be seen from my epic spam of recent changes)
  • I kinda disagree with "Links to non-existent pages are bad. Avoid unless you plan to add them" as IMO they are (ideally) a good way to keep track of what pages need to be added (via http://springrts.com/wiki/Special:WantedPages), regardless of whether or not anyone has immediate plans to do so - I certainly agree that 'skeletons' should be avoided at all costs.

good points.

atm the wantedPages is cluttered with 148 entries ala "Nuke-slinging matches" and thus not usefull. Could be cleaned up though.

wrt "skeletons" I was not sure. A page that is just the structuring like

--heading 1--
--heading 2--
--heading 3--

without content in between is not usefull.

But eg Maps:SpringMapEdit basically has no content but a link, though in this case it is ok.

RE: clutter; Hence 'ideally'. Many of them are caused by http://springrts.com/wiki/Spring:CurrentSiteMap which I'm not sure if we shouldn't just scrap /start from scratch anyway. What's the ETA on BA-related pages migrating?

Also another minor point - summaries for talk page edits?
