Wiki Discussion Thread

[Doom]

Discuss all aspects of the wiki here. I've been meaning to make this thread for a while.

The Cover Project's wiki can be found at http://wiki.thecoverproject.net/

I'll kick off the discussion with a couple questions. I want to make a bunch of help pages on the wiki. What I'm wondering is
1) What the title(s) should be (I think maybe Help:Creating Covers or something along those lines)
2) If they all should be in one mega wiki page, or if the should be broken off into separate help pages

I think they should be separate, but I was wondering what other people think about this. Once I have gathered enough information, I will make a mega sticky with all of the information a newbie to the project could need.

Apparently nobody cares about the fate of the wiki...
I made a help page for how to buy cases, but it needs the help only a bunch of people can give.
I'll start working on other help pages a wiki could enhance.

You should make a topic about specific final cover standards. That's pretty important for people to know. And any topics that could help people learn how to work in photoshop would be an immense help for most newcomers.

I'm actually making a bunch of help pages right now.

I'm working on getting some pages where there is red text.

Maybe write about how the website got started I think it would be cool for people to learn about the history of the Cover Project.

That's pretty much it.

I don't know know to say without sounding mean, so I'll just say it and let people decide how they feel about it. That's what "About the Project" on the main page is for.

That's true, but a lot of things on the Wiki are easily accessed from the "Guides" button also. The Wiki is just a way of making all the important info easier to find by putting it in a readily accessible page.

[Hero's Shade]

That's true.

I put it on there a few hours ago. Although it's in its early stages, I intend the wiki to be a place where all of your questions can be answered.

Anyone who didn't get that shouldn't have been allowed to. :p

I think it would be nice if there were a link to the wiki on the home page.

I have no power over that, it's up to Snowcone.
