Categories

Aliskye, when added the date range categories to the scrolls you are leaving off the scroll part. It should be [[Category:1983 Scrolls]], not [[Category:1983]]. Otherwise things are looking great. Thanks! --Kolfinna 13:12, 14 April 2009 (PDT)

• Thanks! I think I've corrected everything (plus realized I wasn't putting the name of the scroll type in. Fussy wiki. :) I'm catching on slowly...sorta. user:aliskye

Images

• Yes, I think I might be able to do that. Did you upload a new version with the old name? It is likely that the full-sized file is now correct, but the thumbnail is incorrect. This is a known bug with our Wiki.--Lachlan 14:51, 15 April 2009 (PDT)
• Ha-rumph! I deleted the first image, AliskyeMacKyvenRaizel5.JPG, but it remains in the category!--Lachlan 14:56, 15 April 2009 (PDT)

Hi! you are doing such a great job of putting up scrolls, that I hate to even say this --- I was following Natalya's scroll making career (didn't realize she had done one), and found it linked to a picture of a Thea scroll. Looks like a mix up!--EowynA 16:33, 24 April 2009 (PDT)

• Did some formatting experiments today. Check out Aelfred Raedwald of Devonport and Agatha of Tintagel--Lachlan 13:00, 28 April 2009 (PDT)
  • The code for the table is a bit more difficult to write. I think it's a personal taste question for you. If you like the table, great. Is there anything you _don't_ like about the table, that maybe can be fixed before copying the formatting to umpteen populace pages?--Lachlan 13:22, 28 April 2009 (PDT)

Lyondemere

Bummer. And I just added a couple of links to the History section of the Lyondemere Wiki, like, Friday. I wouldn't exactly call it "redundant" myself. "Abridged" might be a better term. I suppose you could make articles like "Lyondemere Meetings," "Lyondemere Officers", "Lyondemere Archery"...--Lachlan 15:55, 27 April 2009 (PDT)

Scroll Stuff

1. I don't know how to change the alphabetization rules of the wiki, if that is even possible. You might ask yourself the question, "Are the year categories useful at all?" The answer might well be "no", since they're categorized by award date, not the date the art was created.
2. I'll try and investigate that.
3. There is a redirect page for Eowyn Amberdrake, it just is not categorized. I suppose the redirect page could be categorized, which would mean she would appear twice on the list. If so, should it also be categorized for Laurels and Pelicans categories?
4. I think, to make what you want, you would need to build a table within an article, probably "Scrolls".--Lachlan 12:36, 14 May 2009 (PDT)

• Quoting Kolfinna:
  • To completely remove the (year) scrolls category, yes you would have to remove it from each individual page. However you could just remove it from obvious linking by removing the category:scrolls link on each of the year pages. That would stop it from being a sub category... --Kolfinna 14:08, 14 May 2009 (PDT)

• The only way I can figure to make an index of scroll recipients is the "hard way". That is, bullet lists.--Lachlan 17:19, 9 June 2009 (PDT)
  • Sorry for the jargon. Most lists of data on this site use bullet lists, which are indicated by an asterisk at the beginning of the line. Here's a possible format:

== Somebody of Somewhere ==
*[[:Image:CoronationSpring03 52.JPG|Award of Arms scroll]]
*[[:Image:CoronationSpring03 53.JPG|Award of Arms scroll (detail)]]

...And so on...
