Talk:WikiBound/Archive 1

This is the central talk page of the PK Wiki. Leave any questions or comments about the wiki in a new section below this message.

just so you know.
Often, there's an independent page for general-wiki-talk. This page is usually about the main page itself. It's OK with me, we just need to be prepared to explain the difference; just in case.WikiSysop 16:26, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

Two things!
The first is about enemies. Right now we have everything having separate pages, though personally I think we could probably merge some of them... namely similar enemy families, like the Ramblin' Shrooms, Mooks, Smilin' Spheres and everyone else who just has the same sprite with recolored palettes/boosted stats and stuff. There's not really much to say about them, other than some sort of infobox with stats and PSI weaknesses/resistances..

The second iiiis! Would anyone mind if I were to create some infoboxes and templates and stuff? :D I was mostly thinking of character/location infoboxes, or maybe an enemy one too. I just wanted to ask first so people wouldn't be like "WHAT'S THIS CRAZY WOMAN DOING???". XD; Tina 00:10, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I really do think the enemy articles could be merged. I just created them right now because New Age Retro Hippie was there. Infoboxes I wouldn't mind. Probably because I don't have any authority. I don't think many would mind though, because this wiki really is just two people regularly editing right now, that being me and the Admin Tacopill. A 00:24, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
 * No one would mind....being there are only 3 editors, and they are all right here. Any, i like the template designs. Are they original, or imported? O, and please don't forget to add a /doc page. Tacopill 15:36, 6 September 2010 (UTC).
 * Template:EarthBound characters and Template:Mother 3 characters look exactly the same. So, i was wondering if there should be a core template that is filled in with the usage templates individual data? 04:37, 11 September 2010 (UTC).
 * Actually, that's not a bad idea... plus it'd make modifying designs between navigation templates a lot easier (the current colors are kind of a placeholder of sorts, unless everyone ends up being okay with them after expanding a little.). :O Tina 04:59, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok, i created this and redid this. What do you think? Tacopill 23:29, 11 September 2010 (UTC).
 * Looks good! I'll go ahead and change the other navigation templates to use the core, then. Tina 00:04, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Happy to help. Tacopill 00:08, 12 September 2010 (UTC).

To help with the new admins
To help you new admins, i've set up Help:Contents with my recommended pages. Please take time to help fill them out, as i believe this will help you guys be admins now and in the future. Please note: In doing so, i do ask you do not copy from other wikis. You are free to look to wikipedia and the other NIWA wiki's for ideas, suggestions and inspirations, but don't blindly copy and page from them. Adapt the information to our wiki, and source places you went to for help. Here is a tool you can use in this goal. Good luck, Tacopill 11:26, 17 September 2010 (MDT).

Positions in the Wiki
Due to me leaving to see some friends tomorrow, i thought it would be a good time to reveal this:

In terms of Chain-of-Command, it's this:

This way the person in charge of the wiki always has someone to step in in their absence, and that person always has two people to help them out.

Please Note: Over time, the current positions will become more specific, as new positions are created and responsibilities delegated. If you have any suggestions on how i can improve upon this, then please tell me.

and i hope you like this, everyone. Tacopill 14:37, 28 September 2010 (MDT).
 * Thank you very much for the Editor-in-Chief position! Have fun on your trip, too.
 * I promise to have at least some policies and help pages written up while you're gone. Really! 8( → T inā  ♫ δ 16:19, 28 September 2010 (MDT)
 * No problem, and thank you.
 * This sounds good. Talk to Metroid King for help elaborating and expanding the policy pages.
 * Also, while editing, i recommend you check out restricted-pages like Special:ReplaceText. Tacopill 16:38, 28 September 2010 (MDT).
