some new ideas

[WarioLoaf]

I have a couple things that could improve and make the wiki format easier to work with:

*Good Articles for those that look and are really good, but not FA standard

*In user's contributions, there should be an option called "Articles created", to let people know what articles the user they are keen one looking up has started.

*More options to press instead of manualy typing codes:

like 'em? be HONEST

:?

There are some articles that definately need longer pages. I've been thinking about moving quite a few enemy pages together…

*In user's contributions, there should be an option called "Articles created", to let people know what articles the user they are keen one looking up has started.

Might be a little hard on the Wikicode, but I bet we could do it!

*More options to press instead of manualy typing codes

Hmm… with what you showed me, it doesn't look too necesary.

1) I'll think about it.
2) I'll research it.
3) Too complicated and outweighs the benefit.

They all sound a bit useless..

Personally, I think we should stick with FAs, but create a PipeProject that could identify some articles as Good, and work to make them FA quality.

I really don't think the Wiki is big enough for Good articles. Ilike the FA format we have now.

Mmmm-mmm.

I know how to add extra buttons.
Example, if you want to add a redirect button, then add in .js:

{
//Redirect
mwCustomEditButtons[mwCustomEditButtons.length] = {
    "imageFile": "INSERT IMAGE SOURCE HERE",
    "speedTip": "Redirect to another page",
    "tagOpen": "#REDIRECT[[",
    "tagClose": "]]",
    "sampleText": "Destination"}
}

Where INSERT IMAGE SOURCE HERE should be the image source (well DUH).
But there must be a certain version of MediaWiki, and you must have installed mwCustomEditButtons.

I support 1 and 2. Especially 1. Not sure I understand 3, though.
