Just to make things easier on us editting the new Talossan Wiki ( wiki.kingdomoftalossa.org/index.php?title=Main_Page), rather than talking in S:reu Ventrutx's GTZT thread, we should have one of our own. I think the most pressing issues is the template coding. I tried to find some resources on meta.wiki and the user guides on how to write these, but couldn't come up with any finds. Secondarily, I think that we should try to compact the huge (and still growing) Kingdom of Talossa article and add "see full article:___" templates under the respective sections. If somebody has some resources on wiki template programming, PM me a link, or email me. So, to make things easier, let's keep wiki discussions here.  |

I notice that there has yet to be a nation infobox placed on the "Kingdom of Talossa" homepage. I apologize if this problem has been referenced in earlier discussions, but is that simply because no one's gotten around to it yet, or there is a problem in scripting the infoboxes?
I also think we should make "personalized pages" for members of Talossan government, just as foreign politicians have their own pages on wikipedia. Anyone else agree?

Yeah, we can't get the scripting right to make the infoboxes. We need a bunch of templates written, and as of now, nobody can do that.
You said you know some wiki coding stuff...can you make templates for infoboxes??
I think we should make personal pages, I think that anybody who helps with the Wiki can do this, especially if they have some role in the government.

Thanks for the links, unfortunately they didn't help. If you make a "Template:_____" page for them all you get is a red-linked "Template:____" and it won't show up. For example, if you go on the Kingdom wiki ( wiki.kingdomoftalossa.org/index.php?title=Main_Page), and go to the "Language" section on the big Kingdom of Talossa arcitle, you should see "Template:See also" right underneath the header...I tried making a page so that under that header it would display "See also: the Talossan Language" but it's just showing up as a red "Template:See also." |

It's really hard to set up a wiki, let's hope that IV can deal with this!

You said you know some wiki coding stuff...can you make templates for infoboxes?? I'm requesting an account from S:reu Ventrutx, since apparently it is impossible to make one on your own. As soon as I get an account, I'll start tinkering around with it and see what I can do. I have a friend who knows even more than I regarding wiki coding and scripting. If we can't figure this out on our own, I'll conscript him and force him to help us out. ;D |

I've just added a section about the Cort pü Inalt and improved the section on Coats of Arms.

Nice, I just typed up everything else that we needed.
The roughest rough draft for the article is complete, we just need the added edits of more people to make it shine. ;D
I did a very bad job on the history sections...if somebody could help with that it'd be amazing.

I figured it out!!!
None of the infoboxes are working because we dont have the Infobox css code in our own css code, and, since only S:reu Ventrutx is an administrator, only he can change it.
I figured out what's wrong, but I can't do anything about it, we need S:reu Ventrutx to.

Isn't that one of the plugins that can be added to the MediaWiki software?

Yeah, I guess it was updated, and S:reu Ventrutx changed it, but I still can't get the Template:Infobox_Country to work.

Any luck with this? I am playing with another Wiki version for a customer ...
If you add a page to the Wiki please place a link on the front page ... I am still looking for ssomeone to step up and manage the editing of the Wiki, I will host it w/o a problem.

I'd be happy to manage the editing if the mediawiki stuff was installed. (JP, please check your emails/pms, I've sent you like a gazillion and it's sort of important that you answer them ) |
