Quick reference: View the MRC_Documentation:Community_Portal page for a quick documentation site map.

You can also view the documentation via. Categories here: Special:Categories

Proposed Layout

Apeman has brought up a good point. With the methodology of creating new pages being "point to something that doesnt exist, then MAKE it exist" brings us promise, but fractured results if we don't have an overall methodology.

Thus, I propose we coordinate the naming/structuring of our pages as thus:

  • Campaigns will be listed by their full campaign name only. They shall be annoted as part of the "Campaigns" category. Example: SVA-1485 Sentinels.
  • Squadrons will be listed by their designation and full name. They shall be annoted as part of the "Squads" (or "Squadrons", decision pending... "squads" already established, but easily changed.). Example: Tales From Deep Space.
  • Squadrons will ALSO be annoted as part of the campaign of which they take part.
  • The constituent parts of the Joining process shall be listed only by a relevant name, such as Step By Step Joining Process, and listed as part of the "Joining" category.
    • Of more direct note: the category listings should be removed from the front of each page name. such as Squads:SVA-1485 Sentinels. While it does serve to note what type of page it is, I feel that it is superfluous in our case.

In the supplied cases above, you'll note that categorizations will need to be removed, and pages updated...
I tried, initially, to set things up using categorizational-prefixes for page names... however, now I feel that that is unnecessary.

That's all I've got for the moment... Once ratified, all existing pages will need to be modified for conformation. Use the Special:Allpages page to find wayward info.

Let me know what you think. --Xuric 20:09, 7 Nov 2004 (MST)

Current Notes

Gonna make things a little easer... placing new entries at the top.
MRC Staff... please look at the Squads Portal and enter the data you have for any of the squads you GM.
Also, you might update your information on the MRC Staff Page.

A note on the load-times for this site: There's a lot of data that has to be processed by the system before it's spit out for viewing. THAT is where most of the load-time comes from. So far, the only images are the Wiki logo, and some on special pages. Best of luck to y'all with dialup. --Xuric 09:10, 5 Nov 2004 (MST)
