Site Layout

The structure of the pages on this Wiki shall follow the following conventions:

  • Campaigns will be listed by their full campaign name only. They shall be annoted as part of the "Campaigns" category. Example: Tales from Deep Space.
  • Squadrons will be listed by their designation and full name. They shall be annoted as part of the "Units" category. Example: SVA-1485 Sentinels.
  • The constituent parts of the Joining process shall be listed only by a relevant name, such as Step by Step Joining, 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 SVA-1485 Sentinels. While it does serve to note what type of page it is, I feel that it is superfluous in our case.
  • Statistics resources shall be listed by whatever most-relevant title can be applied to them. Example: OCC SDC Chart. Statistics Resources shall be listed as part of the "Statistics" category.

One slight change: Instead of "Squads" category, lets switch it all over to "Units" category (kept looking for a name that could work for multiple groups).

Also, here's a little picture (that should be a thumbnail) that helps visually show what I'm thinking in the way of Categories Hiarchy.

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)

Run with it Xuric. Personally I like Squadrons spelt out rather then just Squads, but I'll live with what we have. ALSO, I think we can soon remove Portal pages, and just link to the Categoies page that is automatically setup, reducing our load.

On thing I'm worried about, we have some groups that can not be considered Squadrons, what should we do about them?

Wow... completely missed the above comment for days. Sorry 'bout that.
I agree that "Squadrons" would sound better, but your "Units" idea trumps all. Once I have the opportunity, I'll make the changes accordngly. Until then, I ask the creator of each Units' page to change their categorization over to "units."--Xuric 07:51, 17 Nov 2004 (MST)
