Work distribution

Hey guys/girls, do we plan to distribute some of the work to be done here, or we just tackle random things? I'm asking because I wouldn't want to work on something that someone else already started doing but didn't upload yet. --Rumata (talk) 05:20, 11 November 2013 (MST)

I guess if you're working on something but haven't uploaded it yet, it's best if you note it in the Discussion page of the article to avoid complications. Otherwise, you might as well edit and correct things at random if you ask me. Germz (talk) 09:51, 20 November 2013 (MST)

I've considered that, rumata. I don't want to "assign" things to people, but it wouldn't be bad to edit the page with something like "spacey is working on this and update coming within the hour/day/whatever". Doesn't matter to me that the page suddenly looks like it exists... it's probably better because then it's not so obvious that someone *needs* to work on it - Spacekadt (talk) 00:40, 21 November 2013 (MST)

I really don't want people to have to dig through multiple levels to find information. I'm all for making things prettier, but I really do like how french wiki is set up that almost everything is accessible with one click from the main page. Spacekadt (talk) 17:37, 27 November 2013 (MST)

I agree that having good navigation on the front page is a goal worth aiming for. I also agree that an "I'm working on this." warning on the top of the page should be enough for any of us to back off and avoid duplicating work. Doram (talk) 18:29, 15 December 2013 (MST)

Daedalus Map

I want to suggest adding the point "Map" under Daedalus. Could be very helpful if you had to drop your map to see where to go and how much MP you need. Tatsukishi (talk) 05:22, 2 December 2013 (MST)

I need to find the map I uploaded, but that's a really good idea. I'll add it when I find it and get a moment. Spacekadt (talk)

I updated the Image with numbers for the rooms and added a Table for the names and relevant equipment. Tatsukishi (talk) 10:47, 15 December 2013 (MST)

We (Delzoup and me) would like to make the rooms on the map clickable (leading to the Ship Equipment page) with an ImageMap, which requires a plugin. Can an admin activate it please? "Guide" - Tatsukishi (talk) 14:35, 19 December 2013 (MST)

Mush Universe Info

I wanted to suggest that getting some more general info on the fictional Mush universe would be both very cool for fans, as well as useful for serious RP gamers. Perhaps a new category, and maybe reorganizing a few pages to support the concept. What do you all think? Doram (talk) 18:29, 15 December 2013 (MST)

Wiki design

I would very much like to edit the wiki's design to style it after the Mush site. Would you be willing to help me out with this? (Grant me necessary privileges or, at least, access to the relevant files like CSS etc.) Ividyon (talk) 17:29, 10 December 2013 (MST)

What kind of vision do you have in mind? I found a wiki layout that I like a LOT and would like to emulate as far as the navigation goes. I have *some* ideas for what to do with the main page, but I'm not entirely sold on it. Are you ever in IRC that we can chat about what you want to do? Spacekadt (talk)

I have some graphics skills, and wouldn't mind helping out too. I would assume Invidyon would like to emulate the color scheme, star background, and other signature elements of the Mush game page. I'm all for it.Doram (talk) 18:29, 15 December 2013 (MST)

It seems that the creators demand that fan sites do not emulate the looks of the original site (to avoid player confusion, making them believe it's an official resource), which kind of killed my enthusiasm. Ividyon (talk) 03:41, 16 December 2013 (MST)

Awwww. That kinda stinks. Well, we could certainly work on giving this place something other than default settings. Maybe take the White and Blue theme further, or pick some other colors... Doram (talk) 05:38, 16 December 2013 (MST)

French Wiki

What is the opinion of the group on translating the info on the Twinpedia section for Mush? Good idea? Not allowed? I'm willing to spend some time copying and cleaning up Google's uneducated guesswork with the actual English game terms. Doram (talk) 09:28, 17 December 2013 (MST)

I don't mind it as placeholder text and it's definitely been done for some pages and some info. But my ultimate goal is that we rely on our own knowledge since they have a season change under their belt and they may have some differences in the game. Spacekadt (talk)

Template Cleanup

There are a number of duplicate templates in there, and some of the simple individual templates could work better when combined into a more complex one. Whoever is interested and has the time should look at it, I think. Doram (talk) 10:51, 21 December 2013 (MST)

If you give me some estimate pointers on what you're talking about, I'll get right on it! Ividyon (talk) 10:56, 21 December 2013 (MST)
