DOCUMENT STRUCTURE


As the CSS and BBcode for the main wiki-page is getting a little complex, I'm providing a simplified overview here:
mobile blah <--Placeholder for mobile background image


<--Placeholder for background image
<-- Row A
<--makes contents link to the correct wiki page. Because of the added BB-code, the ="Article Name" is MANDATORY
<-- styled to hold the art and label
<-- styled as label
Article Name


COMMENT <-- comment to keep code more tidy without breaking the row
/COMMENT<-- next item. Same as above, and will be repeated for each additional item by only changing the image URL, and the article name twice (once in the wiki link, once in the second )
...




<-- Row B. Contents are the same code as A, only different labels and images.
...



<-- End of the background placeholder, and thus the end of the mainpage.




Note that because each return in this editor results in a '<br>' html tag. Therefore, the [/wiki] and have to be on the SAME line. If not, the items will stack below each other instead of lining up horizontally!
THIS GOES FOR THE WHOLE PAGE! I know it makes the code messy (hence this reference), but it's the only way to make it work.






style="width: 50%; min-width: 400px; max-width: 800px; margin: 20px auto; padding: 25px 10px; background-color: #200; border: 1px dotted #ccc;"


















Please DO NOT modify the div's! While some may seem invisible, they actually are aligning the content properly.

Does this page need an added thumbnail/link for a "Places" sub-page listing all the locations? There are a number of pages detailing locations such as "The Tower" or "Locked and Loaded" but they are not directly linked in a directory fashion, just as links from within the other articles. They're kind of buried due to this.

Just a thought. I really like the current layout of the page, but the story locations do seem just as important as the other articles.

Good idea. I'll look into adding an item for "Places", and "categories" too. Both for functionality and alignment.
It might take some time before it's there, as I'll have to wait for the images to be created.

Also, thanks for the compliment on the layout :) It took some time to get all the code in there, so I'm glad it was worth it.

Done. Added both, though I'll add a proper thumbnail for 'Categories' later.

Very nice! Still clean and neat but with more function. Your use of the map as the Places thumbnail was a great idea, it blends very well.

I'm currently working on bringing back structure (and the automated power of some Wiki features like stubbs and categories) to the wiki, which will also increase the ease of use.
As long as writers properly add the [category]-tags at the bottom of their articles, it will definitely make things a lot easier.

I added an external link to celiac disease (wiki) and 31 bravo (about.com)

Now I wonder if that is a bad idea. Is linking outside the domain a bad idea?

Some of the articles could do with a quick once-over for spelling/grammar errors. I'll do a few when I get on my computer

Just a thought about the Wiki pages. When I first stumbled across the forum, I perused the Wiki. Then I ran off like a scared dog after I read a spoiler in a page about a particular character. How about placing a Spoiler Warning on the Wiki's Main page? At times I thought about placing them on each page but that would be a massive undertaking. Also organizing each entry's article into chapters will be messy. So a single warning on the main page warning that the "Articles in the Wiki may contain information that will not be revealed until later episodes" would go a long way.

Why does the zombie wiki template have "Skittles' Nickname" by default?

Personally, I would say that wiki's of any variety should be viewed as spoilerific. You're not incorrect but we should figure out the best way to advertise it. Since any mention of characters, locations, weapons etc will bring you straight to the wiki it's hard to think a front page wiki spoiler would be helpful. I'm not sure how many pages there are but to individually tag each one would require a great deal of effort.

I guess not. For some reason I thought those were there. I started work writing wiki entries for Lock Down. Good excuse for another listen!

I was the one writing up the episodes. Unfortunately, I was at university at the time and life got in the way, and I've never got back to it. But feel free to do it if you like!

Sure, I will! I'll also be working on Lockdown, just finished the main series.

There is a "loose" Lockdown page. I can't edit it because it says its deleted, but its not. Page: Lockdown Ep 1. Is there a way to fix this issue?

I listened to We're Alive and recently found out there are follow-ups. It would be nice to have a list of the follow-up podcasts and the order in which they occur.
