From TLJwiki

No. --WikiSysop 21:51, 15 January 2006 (EST)

Grr to Mediawiki, but I'll add all pages and random page, etc to the toolbox later. Requires scripting which I'm too tired to muster. --WikiSysop 02:18, 16 January 2006 (EST)

Dreamfall spoilers

I'd propose we create a Dreamfall-spoiler-start and a Dreamfall-spoiler-end templates and enforce the strict policy of tagging all Dreamfall spoilers instead of banning them outright. :) --Koveras 12:54, 19 April 2006 (EDT)


Here are two solid suggestions, as to how to realize such a thing. This is how it should look like in the "source code" of the article.

{{Dreamfall-spoiler-start}}

 Spoiler text.

 {{Dreamfall-spoiler-end}}

This is how it can look like formatted. First option (traditional style spoiler tags):


WARNING: Dreamfall spoilers follow!

Spoiler text.


Dreamfall spoilers end here.

Second option (more radical spoiler tags) implies hiding the spoiler text inside the tag using JavaScript property "style.display" but I cannot realize it here because of some security options. I guess it has to be implemented into the js-files of the Wiki-engine. :)

And also propose a template for Dreamfall-exclusive articles, so that we don't have to mark an encase the entire article with spoiler tags. It can look like this:

{{Dreamfall}}
WARNING: This article deals with a Dreamfall-exclusive topic! The text is very likely to contain serious spoilers!

Please, tell me what you think. --Koveras 04:54, 6 May 2006 (EDT)

--- I think we should go for the second option as it is very important for many people not to see the spoilers; IMDB has such an option. Sinan

Avoid creating pages?

Hi there,
I'm new to this wiki, but I'm familiar with the mediawiki markup and have done editing on other wikis. I really enjoyed the game and wanted to pitch in to help build TLJwiki. I was wondering about the comment on the main page asking people to avoid creating pages for the sake of "findability". Does that mean that I should not create (for example) a page called "Reza" with just a redirect to the Reza Temiz article?
Thanks,

Yes, that's what it refers to. Thanks for asking first. : ) And welcome! -Tullis
