NIWA Discussion / Consoles
« on: June 29, 2011, 01:29:27 PM »
I've been trying to keep all the NIWA wikis console articles linking to each other, but it would be easier if people from each wiki helped maintain this.
First of all, when an article is created, ideally a person from the wiki it was created on should add their article to the Project Links section on Lylat Wiki and WikiBound. Then, if there is a Bulbapedia article on the same console, it should be linked on the Bulbapedia infobox by adding "wikicode=yes", where wikicode is what is equivalent to your wiki here, except that StrategyWiki is sw. Likewise, the opposite should be done if a page is deleted.
Alternately, the next best option would be the simply post here which page was deleted/created, so that someone (probably me) can handle it.

Wiki References / Re: Using lots of templates
« on: June 20, 2011, 09:57:25 AM »* Can the information be saved into a subpage of a specific main page?I'm personally not really a fan of subpages. I generally feel they should be avoided unless necessary. You can make content expandable if it's making the page too long.
Quote
Similaraly, the Donkey Kong Arcade Game is considered by me, both a game in the Donkey Kong series and a Super Mario series. So, to help with this, i created a sub-page of the game's main page, in which imports the same information but chooses a random color scheme to show for the infobox.That seems like a very inefficient way to do it. The content from Donkey Kong (game)/Infobox2 could just be placed on the page itself. But even then, couldn't you just put the infobox with something like this on the page?
Code: [Select]
|niwa={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=Super Mario Wiki|1=Donkey Kong Wiki}}
|colorscheme={{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=mario|1=Donkey Kong}}
However, I would say that it is primarily a Donkey Kong game anyway; while it is a Mario game too, that is secondary.
Another (better) option would be to program the template to allow links to two wikis per game, which could be applied in other situations too; for example, the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, many G&W games (assuming we get Professor Layton, Ace Attorney, and Game & Watch wikis).

From a technical perspective, you need to be careful not to go over the template include size. I believe it is one million templates, but if you have pretty tables and tonnes of subtemplates then this is quite achievable on long pages. For example, on Bulbapedia Battle CD used to have the parties of 50 Trainers, but went over the template include limit and ended up needing to be broken off into 3 subpages. The main cause of this on Bulbapedia is color templates (not that they are a bad thing).
This kind of problem is uncommon, and only applies on long pages, but is something you should consider before going template crazy.

NIWA Discussion / Re: Fire Emblem Wiki and Wikibound going to move
« on: June 15, 2011, 12:11:01 PM »
It would probably be better if we changed all the NIWA links to Wikibound to the new temporary domain, since clicking on them now takes me to one of those "expired domain" websites.
May also be worth putting into the NIWA news here.
EDIT: Nevermind, WikiBound is back to its regular domain
