Welcome Giles! --Kottr 18:21, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Kolfinna...

have I mentioned how cool this is?  :)

  • I know, it rocks!--Kottr 23:49, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Page Titles

  • Make sure to put spaces in your page titles, your recent ones BlueFeather and RegnalNumbers, I've had to go back and manually put spaces in. The system will handle spaces just fine when you are creating a page wiki.caid-commons.org/Sponge Bob --Kottr 16:38, 25 April 2008 (PDT)

Sorry... too many years of writing code. I'll try to remember. <G>

Populace page suggestion

I think it'd be fun to have a 'favorite stories' section on the People template where amusing anecdotes or inspiring tales could be recorded... like Balin's white Roman armor at Estrella (or maybe it was one of the earlier wars) and him striking poses on every convenient rock and hilly outcrop as the army marched by, crying "Onward, men, to Victory!", and then scrambling up the hill to the next turning to repeat the performance.

  • I'm cool with that idea. The default layout guide is located Template_talk:Populace, while it won't propagate out to the world, it is the guide people are supposed to follow when building the populace pages. Perhaps we could call it the Memories section? I'll put that in for right now, pick the wording that most appeals to you though.--Kottr 08:56, 26 April 2008 (PDT)
  • Image Uploads now work thanks to the wonderful Lorenz. To upload an image go here. Please read our policy in regards to all media here. This is the last technical hurdle, please take a quick look at the site, since we are shortly going to release it to the public. Thanks! --Kolfinna 13:40, 28 May 2008 (PDT)


==well, I've screwed it up... Kolfinna, I thought I'd preserved the formatting of the populate template in my bio page, but not. <sigh> Could you take a look and let me know where I bungled it?

  • you forget to close the brackets for the image link of your device. I closed them and it worked fine. --Kolfinna 15:15, 4 June 2008 (PDT)
  • Also the photo notes are nice, but there is a place for them in the picture template. Just add the text to "photocaption".


Please comment on the awards question at Help talk:Team --Kolfinna 12:27, 9 June 2008 (PDT)

Update to Template

Thanks to User:Iulianna we now have default holder pictures for the populace pages. Please use the new code for any new populace pages you make, and update old populace pages when you have the time. Get the code here: Template talk:Populace --Kolfinna 19:48, 20 June 2008 (PDT)

Update to Fix Page

Help:Fix is where I am storing all the things to do and what needs to be focused on. We all have our own pet projects, but if you could also keep an eye on this page, that would be helpful. I also have discussion items that I need your feedback on Help:Fix#Discussion_Items. Thanks! --Kolfinna 09:29, 23 June 2008 (PDT)
