Realm Pages

You're welcome to create new realm pages, but please make sure that they contain more than:

 A Realm in Island.

They should contain useful information. At a bare minimum, they should at least have a copy of the publically available realm summary. Ideally, they should contain more information about the realm. The pages for Minas Ithil and Riombara are a good start, most of the rest aren't. Try and cover a few realms well, before you start creating pages for every realm.

Heard and understood! My plan was to put more in, but with two of my three characters getting wounded and imprisoned I couldn't get more recent information. I was going to use the Old Wiki information as spareingly as possible because, well, its old. Marc J.

Oh and I keep seeing this 'You have New Messages!' link when I sign in. It links here, but it won't go away! Hopefully now that I've put this here it'll go away. Marc J.

Nope, still here. Any ideas how to get it to go away? Marc J.

I cannot help you on the message problem but I can give you a real one. Thank you for correcting my terrible language I was a bit too tired. By the way I intentionally always spell the true TOM with capital letter, no less would be an offense to the great god of BattleMaster! --Rasmus October 6, 2005 00:29 (CET)

Page Naming

Marc, there is no reason to use slashes in your page names, the wiki does not work on a directory structure. The name "Roleplay Introduction", would fit with the wiki naming, and would be easier to others to find.

Whoever wrote this doesn't know what he's talking about. The slash nomenclature denotes subpages, and are not just OK, but are strongly encouraged. --John 10 October 2005 15:37 (CEST)

Thanks, I make sure and remember it. If I'm trying to do something and I don't know how to do it, I normally just surf around the Wiki until I find a good example. Then I copy it, so thats where I got the "/" from. --Marc J. 10 October 2005 20:53 (CEST)

Templates

There's not a page listing them, (though News Guide comes close) but I learned most of what I know about templates from experimenting with a copy of Template:Userdata, which Tom wrote a while ago -- he uses several very useful tricks. Check the code on my userpage for an example of how to fill it out. --John 2 November 2005 15:06 (CET)
