− | I moved (renamed) the entries on the different types of cannons to singular form ([[Combustion cannon]], [[Hybrid cannon]] etc), it's standard in wikis and makes linking much easier. Edit: removed capitalization in the titles as well, should not be used unless neccessary (such as in person names) since wiki is picky about capitals. I put redirects in place. --[[User:GalFisk|GalFisk]] 18 October 2005 04:22 (CDT)

− | == Formatting ==
| |
− | | |
− | Question: should the preferred formatting of lists be like that on the cannon pages
| |
− | *item 1
| |
− | *item 2
| |
− | *etc
| |
− | or the default one, like this
| |
− | | |
− | *item 1
| |
− | *item 2
| |
− | *etc
| |
− | | |
− | The second one is more common, but the first one has precedence on this page. I prefer the second one since it's more integrated with the rest of the text (same font/size) and think the other should be reserved for ascii drawings and the like that needs a monospace font. It would be nice to have a rule either way though, have the pages edited to correspond to that rule, and so set a consistant basis for future articles.

− | == Whatever you please ==
| |

| |
− | If you think the second way is better then go with it. I'm still trying to get used to using a Wiki and it seems that you've been on more than be so you've had more experience.
| |

| |
− | Have fun :)
| |
− | | |
− | Thanks a lot.
| |
− | :Ok, I'll change the formatting in the affected articles to the way I like it then. I've edited a bit on Wikipedia and I enjoyed it, I'll be adding/fixing stuff here whenever I feel like it. | |
− | :I see that the box formatting can creep in by simply custting and pasting from Wikipedia, it's created by adding a space in front of a line and that can creep in during that operation for some reason.
| |
− | :You can sign your posts by putting three tildes (<nowiki>~~~</nowiki>) at the end, or sign it with date using four tildes. Remember to be logged in then of course. Preview is a good tool when trying out stuff. | |

− | == duplicate articals ==
| |
− | | |
− | There are multiple articals that are exactly the same, but with slightly different names.
| |
− | What's up with this?
| |
− | :Some items redirect to other articles, if you search for [[ignition]] you're redirected to [[ignition source]] for instance. some articles were also renamed, when that is done a redirect is automatically placed on the old name. If you have been redirected, it will say so at the top of the page. | |
− | :The reason for having redirects is to make searching and linking easier, as well as not losing all previous links to a page if it gets renamed for some reason. | |
− | :If you find genuine duplicate identical articles, delete one and place a redirect from that to the other one. A redirect consists of the following text: | |
− | | |
− | :<nowiki>#redirect [[article name]]</nowiki> | |

− | == Some info on how Wiki handles capital letters: ==
| |
− | | |
− | The first letter in an article name will always be a capital letter. If you try to create an article on "psi" (which is the correct capitalization), it will be named "Psi".
| |
− | | |
− | When linking, the first letter is treated the same whether it is capital or not. Both <nowiki>[[psi]] and [[Psi]]</nowiki> will get you to the "Psi" article.
| |
− | | |
− | This is not the case with capital letters elsewhere in the article name though, a link to <nowiki>[[PSI]]</nowiki> will point to an article with the entire title in capitals.
| |
− | | |
− | To create more confusion, the search function is less picky, a search for both "PSI" and "psi" will send you to the same article.
| |
− | | |
− | Because of this, it's important not to use capital letters except where warranted. Valid cases are abbreviations ([[BBQ ignitor]], [[PVC]]), proper names, ([[The Spudgun Technology Center]], [[Gas Gun Design Tool]]), and other things that are normally written capitalized. If it's done both ways (many don't bother capitalizing either of these two), make a redirect from one version to the other.
| |
− | | |
− | As a rule of thumb, only capitalize when it looks wrong if you don't.
| |
− | | |
− | If you are unsure just go ahead and do it either way, if it's wrong someone will come along and fix it.
| |
− | | |
− | i think linking to a particular post on spudtech is a bad idea, people may have to sign up.
| |
− | | |
− | == Stubs, categories ==
| |
− | | |
− | A '''stub''' is a short article where a lot of information could be added. To mark an article as a stub, add <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> at the bottom. A notice will be added that the article needs to be expanded. When you expand on a stub, you can remove the notice. All current stubs can be found in [[:Category:Stubs]]. [[The Spudgun Technology Center]] article is a good example, it's very short and a lot more can be written about it.
| |
− | | |
− | '''Categories''' are a way to automatically organize articles. When a new article is made, it can be added to a category by adding <nowiki>[[Category:Category name]]</nowiki> at the bottom. An article should not be member of too many categories, only those to which is has a direct connection. For instance [[Pneumatic cannon]] could be a member of the category "cannons", but should not be in the category "valves" or "construction materials". And a valve fits perfectly in the category "valves", but is unneccessary in "construction materials".
| |
− | | |
− | To take an example, I just made the [[:Category:Valves]]. We could instead have had an article on [[valves]] which linked to all the valve articles, but that would mean this article would need to be updated each time a new "valve" article is added to stay current. By just adding the new article to the appropriate category, an up to date list is always maintained.
| |
− | | |
− | An article on valves (Edit: called, for instance, [[valve]]) could be useful too of course, it should then link to the category for the listing of valves. I will be adding more categories and sort the current articles. If you find or write an article that fits in a current category, link it, and if you find that a particular useful category doesn't exist, you can create it, or put up a suggestion that it be created.
| |
− | | |
− | Edit: Categories are by their nature in plural form, articles should be in singular where possible.
| |
− | | |
− | A few useful templates also need to be added, such as one for footnotes. Unless someone else does it, I will as soon as I have found out how they work :)
