I think some conventions/rules should be made about the wiki before too many pages get made. It's much easier for people to follow a set of guidelines when they're creating pages than after the pages have been made.
I suggest the following:
For #4 I was also thinking of putting the info about the version in parentheses, like "Bard (Official 3e)", but I don't know which one I like better. This way is probably more like Wikipedia. "Bard" itself could be a disambiguation page.
Comments? Anything to add? Anything to take away or change?
I suggest the following:
- Templates: Use them as much as possible. Create new ones if you see the need and link them to the templates page.
- Categories: Use them as much as possible as well. Take a look at the list of categories and add any to your page that you think are applicable. Pages taken from OGL sources should all be in a specific category.
- Campaigns: To avoid fighting over page names, large groups of pages that go together, like users' campaigns, should have one main page created for them and all other pages should be subpages of the main page using this sort of formatting:
- MyCampaign
- MyCampaign\Classes
- MyCampaign\Races
- MyCampaign\PCs
- Naming collisions: When you want to create a page for something that already exists, like multiple versions of a class or race, and it's not a part of a specific campaign there should be one main page for the topic and all the different versions of the topic should be subpages. The main page links to the subpages. Example:
- Bard
- Bard/Official 3e
- Bard/Merkuri's 4e
- Bard/Someone Else's 4e
For #4 I was also thinking of putting the info about the version in parentheses, like "Bard (Official 3e)", but I don't know which one I like better. This way is probably more like Wikipedia. "Bard" itself could be a disambiguation page.
