Template talk:Category

Template expanded

Hi, i changed the template so that you can give a main page as parameter in case the main page is not the same as the category name (e.g. SM1 pages have category "School Mate 1" but mainpage is "School Mate", so you use {{Category|School Mate}}. Hope that's okay. -- hmoeller (talk) 14:55, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Good job. Btw, you don't have to add the categories for the pictures. I'm currently working on an tool with wich I can access the API of the wiki and add the categories for files automaticly. Just make sure your uploaded files start with the acronym of the game, separated with an underscore (_) from the rest of the filename. For example files from School Mate should start with SM1_. --Trololove (talk) 16:01, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Great. Did something similar back in the days (must have been 2007) for the urban dead wiki using perl and some mediawiki module. Was fun. BTW, you should then put your list of game abbreviations somewhere more popular. Maybe we should have some kind of article style guide. -- hmoeller (talk) 16:11, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Yes, I'll try to create the wiki tutorial when I have time. I'm looking forward to the release of MediaWiki Version 1.23, which will bring a visual editor. Also I've asked Inquisitor to activate the WikiEditor (extended toolbar). --Trololove (talk) 16:31, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
