FFR Wiki

[Pseudo Enigma]

Re: FFR Wiki

All for this project. I don't have knowledge of anything special, but it seems more useful than the Dictionary/etc. threads no one seems to look at.

edit: I mean, I could lend a hand if you guys want a profile section in the wiki for specific details..but it's not that important..

Re: FFR Wiki

finished doing the blanket artist permissions but left out the limited artist permissions because the amount of links in it were too much for wikia.

Tried posting it and got caught by the spam/phising filter, which wouldn't let me post it and put up a false positive complaint on their complaints board.

the full post of it can be found here on pastebin: http://pastebin.com/88GFnHm3


Going to sleep now, see if they will respond to it in the morning.

two ways you can do this:

a) paste info in chunks so you dont get caught by the filter - edit the page and add more a few times until it's all there. Not sure if there's a character limit though?

b) If there's a char. limit, we can have a sectional sort of setup for it, with alphabetical pages for artists

Re: FFR Wiki

Would someone put the Songs page as a listing in the General Information section? I suppose it's a pretty main component.

neither of those seem to be the problem, it seems there is some sort of traffic limit for links or glass ceiling to posting on the same page. It used to freeze up at P-Z for song authors, but now I'm half-way down P (which I couldn't post before). Really don't want to resort to having 2 different articles for the permissions ><

lol we don't even have a page yet for all the songs in-game. I'm working on Blanket Artist Permissions right now.

and they didn't even respond to me in the complaints forum.




Edit: I did something naughty.

the number is only supposed to go up to 15 in the subsection catagory

Re: FFR Wiki

Will update the lists with noname's list when I get back from work.

The links are references for us to find their music, we could just move those links into their own page.

You can if you want, I like having them there so people know where to go originally for music, because some of the links are there because they only want music from that link used in the game.

If you want to keep them on those permission pages, it will make them heavier to load and more confusing. I think simply making a list of artists with internal links could be a simple solution to your phishing problem and you could then make one article with permissions.

Also, added an extra line of code in Template:Musician and Template:Song so when you use any of those two templates, their respective category is automatically added.

edit : just hit 100 pages

Re: FFR Wiki

I'm curious about how Jimerax isn't in the staff page with other admins but Tasselfoot is there.

Also on many occurances people are referred to by their first names, which isn't really practical in my book.

Re: FFR Wiki

Whoa this exploded fast, tomorrow I'll spend all day re-reading all the content and make a .txt file with edits so the initial author can make the grammar edits. I feel like this way they learn more too.

And then I'll reword/reconstruct phrasing and paragraphs for some fun.

I noticed that too, so if no one else is set to do so I can work on this page.

Re: FFR Wiki

We really need to set up a plan and what's left to do.

Critical tasks
- We NEED a list of pages to add (engines, history of the website, tournaments, etc.......)
- Artists and songs to add (Noname219 - now at letter E)

Important tasks
- Template:Song page need some adjustments (Netjet! - will add some few other things)
- Additional information on songs and musicians (Noname219 and Crazyjayde)
- Logo ameliorations, transparency, "wiki" need a better font
- Some staff members to be added
- Setting up the homepage properly
- Having a page to know exactly what to do when new content is added
- List of musicians
- List of songs

Propositions
- FFR Terminology is a big ass page, we could have a whole page for play styles, AAA, BC, pattern terminology (some examples in files) with a redirection
- Having all permissions pages under the same one (links could be listed in artists page)
- Maybe having a page with some general guidelines to know what/how to add stuff on the wiki, a FAQ or something

Completed
- None yet!

This will go in the OP. If anybody wants to start something, they can go ahead.

Re: FFR Wiki

- We NEED a list of pages to add (engines, history of the website, tournaments, etc.......)

-List of things that we currently need- at least from what I can think of...

- Major stub pages AND/OR Wanted Pages created & filled (excludes pages that are in the musician or song categories. Can be found from main page.

(Includes pages for Legacy Engine,
Velocity Engine,
R^2 Engine,
FFR RPG,
Website History,
Official Tournaments,
FFR Shop,
Duel Requests,
FFR File Creation,
FFR Credit Jackpot,
Veteran Status,
Credits,
Gambling Hall,
Tokens,
Profile Chat,
The Official list of FFR Songs in-game, (Only the page for musicians are up,)
Spin It Up,
FFR Radio,
FFR R2 (Not R^2 Engine),
Metrivia,
Simfile Database (FFR),
Widgets,
AND PROBABLY MORE...)

Hoorah for nostalgia list. \o/

nothing to see here,
come back when the sky is falling.

- Additional information on songs and musicians (Noname219 and Crazyjayde)

This will inevitably, take us forever at the pace of contribution, but it's not impossible to do entirely. The idea I had behind it was to offer a bit of technical information in a paragraph for people too lazy to look at the template, and then talk about the strength and weaknesses in the chart for it followed by tips and tricks on tackling the chart, with there being a section at the end of the explanation that can include any screenshot images by any wiki people that involve that particular song. (It can be an accomplishment, or advice sections using puush and then saving it to your computer.)

- Having a page to know exactly what to do when new content is added

- List of musicians

Completed with the links to permissions on the homepage, but needs some updating from your list of authors and permissions because someone hasn't updated the blanket permissions thread since April.

- Having all permissions pages under the same one (links could be listed in artists page)

Would love to put them all under the same page, but I had to do some heavy coding in source just to fit them as it is in one, and would hate to struggle with mixing them together because some of the links in the actual thread are required due to their limited permissions, which is why I left them aside from the actual blanket permissions. If you truly want to merge them though, I'm not going to argue with you on doing so.

Everything else I didn't quote from your post I don't have anything to really say against it and should probably be done.
