Many of the places categories are marked for deletion and their associated content is either marked depreciated or is marked for deletion as well. Are these pages going to be maintained, especially in light of the fact that the Evelopedia contains much of the same information? - [[User:Haeric|Haeric]] 02:32, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

== Missing Templates ==

Many of the default templates are not apart of this wiki install. Such as <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> that seems to have been redirected to [[Wiki How To Guide#Templates]] which is not what it should be for an install of mediawiki.

An unintended consequence is that all pages (especially templates) who store their documentation data separately from their implementation no longer work and instead display [[Wiki How To Guide]] regardless of what the template is.

As a quick fix, I have removed the <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> tag from those templates effected and replaced some with inline documentation (however it should be known that this is not the intended way of having the documentation done for templates).

The question that is begged by this is, do we stick with the current templates and keep our documentation inline or do we take on the larger task of getting the default templates re-imported?

The simple solution is to just leave it as is, however, this means that any templates imported from other wiki's will need to have the transclusion removed and those docs placed inline. This simple solution also leaves the door open to other potential issues. -[[User:Haeric|Haeric]] 11:48, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
