Revision as of 06:17, 11 October 2007

GL made a great post about modding here: http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=569509#569509 Someone in General Discussion suggested to Wiki it, so now I'm working on this. Comments? Andycyca me ^_^ What? 02:30, 3 October 2007 (MDT)

I'm on it. Copypasted, uploaded pics and first wiki formatting. Comments? Help? Andycyca me ^_^ What? 23:39, 3 October 2007 (MDT)

Thanks for picking this up, I was going to do it myself... eventually. If you want help with anything in particular, let me know. Erg0 04:08, 4 October 2007 (MDT)

Needs more credit where credit is due.

All this article, as I said, belongs in its entirety to GreenLiquid in Mafiascum.net. It's hosted as a subpage of mine just for editing reasons, but the ideas and the writing aren't mine. Andycyca||me||What? 17:00, 9 October 2007 (MDT)

About moving and subpages.

First of all, thanks a lot MoS and Flay for moving this! I was seeing the Recent Changes and I saw that you guys had some trouble with this, I don't know why and it doesn't matter.

When I copypasted GL's (and when I started writing the Spam Guide) I created them as subpages. Why? This was my plan:

  1. Create the subpage as a draft.
  2. Start wikiediting
  3. Once finished, create the actual article copypasting from the subpage
  4. Add {{deleteme}} to the subpage and wait for a kind sysop.

Long story short: use subpages as draft pages because I see them constantly on my User and delete them afterwards in order to avoid possible redirection problems.

But now I wonder, what is the best thing to do: create the article as draft subpage and delete it afterwards OR just create the article and wikiedit from there? I want to know for my future contributions and to avoid unnecesary sysop work. Andycyca||me||What? 22:22, 10 October 2007 (MDT)

i have mixed feelings about this wiki page title... while i think it is entirely appropriate for Green Liquid to get the credit, i'm not sure that credit is necessary in the title of the page... on the other hand, i don't want the title to sound official either...
