This are the personal notes from Evon R'al on editing the wiki.

Tools

For checking CSS:

"Renaming"/moving an article/page

An article/page can not be renamed.

An article/page can only be moved. When doing so:

  • the content of the page is "moved" to the new name
  • the history of the page is moved as-well, so it stays available.
  • if a talk/discussion page exists the option to move it is offered.
  • the old page is automatically changed into a redirect page, admin's can move without leaving a redirect but regular editors can't

It is not a good idea to copy the text of the page into a new page because then the history is been lost. And the history staying with the old page loses its relevance.

Icon information square.png Note: As the wiki is a database, I assume that the data is not really moved, there is just a new pointer to the record(s)

Moving a page is a multi step process:

  1. the actual move ("arrow" next to the search-box on top of the page)
  2. go back to the old page and evaluate and adapt, if needed, the links pointing to it (What links here, under tools in the left navbar)
  3. Check for, and change, Double redirects
  4. evaluate if the old page:
  • stays a redirect
  • needs to be changed into a disambiguation page {{Disambig}}. The original page is split into two or there is a new page about the subject E.g.
    • the original page was getting to broad and rewritten in two, or more, pages
    • or mission "Do something" exist for multiple levels and/or factions so there are now the pages "Do something (Level 1)" and "Do something (Level 2)"
  • is a candidate for {{Deletion}} because of spelling error in the page name or something like that
  • write new content. Maybe a broad overview of the subject with links to one or more pages with the details (including the "new" page)

Interwiki links

Interwiki links are links to pages of other projects, using a prefixed internal link style.

To use interwiki links use [[ followed by the prefix, a colon and then the page name and the closing parenthesis.

So for a link to WikiPedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperlink#Wikis] could be replaced by [[wikipedia:Hyperlink#Wikis]]

For prefixes known by UniWiki see Interwiki data
