Revision as of 23:18, 28 February 2005

Example

  • Here's my suggestion pontiac 12:46, 28 Feb 2005 (PST)
I tried to make the names as simple as possible.
Everything below is categorized under Category:Database and linked there)

Talk 1

  • I don't really care much whether "glossary" or "terminology" is used, so we can use whichever. jackS
    • As am i, but i learned it the hard way with the old wiki that a good one is of much help later ;) pontiac

  • If we want to split ships and upgrades into separate categories, let's do so with some sort of "Items and Technologies" (or better equivalent name) category, and put Ships, Weapons, Upgrades, and Cargo items in as subcategories. jackS

  • I'm actually quite fond of "Sapients and Other Noteworthy Species" ;-) "History and Timeline" is cleaner than my first thoughts, let's use that ;-) jackS
    • I like it too ;) but this can still be in a subtext/text next to the link IMHO pontiac
      • I acutally meant the "Sapients and Other Noteworthy Species" and that it should be a subtext. Mixed something up when writing this though. Forget the above comment :) pontiac

  • but umm sure, let's figure something out. jackS
    • No problem, see my answers above

  • PS: you can use three tiles to make your username appear in the wiki and four to add the date/time pontiac 13:52, 28 Feb 2005 (PST)
~~~ bzw. ~~~~

Example 2

important to note that cargo categories are non-finalized, so we may want to keep this a flat hierarchy until we do so.

Talk 2

  • Ok, two comments on the second approach:
    • Instead of making a site named VSTech just mak3e a Category where every VStech is classified in. As i said above with the "Items and TEchnology" or so category.
    • When making Subfactions i think if would be better to use this layout:
      • Faction:bigfaction
      • Faction:bigfaction:subfaction

= example 3 =

NOTE: everything in VS Tech will automatically be listed in Category:VS Tech NOTE2: e.g. History and Timeline and Category:History and Timeline have two completly different purposes (Hand edited page/ aut-collected listing of pages) Just FYI
