Redirects[edit]

  1. Should redirects be included in this list? So, that if people search for alternative names they will still find what they are looking for? --llycatA (alkT - ontribsC) 14:35, 4 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't see why not -- Paxomen 13:28, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Images[edit]

What are people's opinions on the images, are they OK in article or distracting? should they?:

  • 1) stay as are
  • 2) be shrunk to smaller thumbnails
  • 3) be fewer on the page
  • 4) be fewer and smaller
  • 5) all be removed

History and Talk[edit]

Are links to the history and talk pages really nescessary? Personally, I don't know how to make them exactly and it makes adding things to this list a lot more bothersome. --llycatA (alkT - ontribsC) 14:58, 18 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it is more bothersome, but I also personally think, it is sometimes useful to have direct access to those pages, for example at the moment I am gradually tagging each episode discussion page to encourage more work on the episode articles (e.g. see tag at Talk:Angel (Buffy episode)). I have only got through 'A' and 'B' at momment. Another project member used the page to tag most of the articles as WP:Buffy a few weeks back.

What do other people think? If any one adds links, I can add discussion/revision, but here is an example of the confusing code which may require scrolling across to the right:

*[[A Hole in the World (Angel episode)]] - - - <small>[[Talk:A Hole in the World (Angel episode)|''Discussion page'']] - [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A_Hole_in_the_World_%28Angel_episode%29&action=history ''Revision history''] - ''Angel'' episode 5.15. Fred opens up an ancient sarcophagus.</small>

Broken down into smaller sections:

1) The entry

[[A Hole in the World (Angel episode)]]

2) Making all folowing text smaller

<small>

3) A space marked by three dashes then the discussion page, linked to as 'Discussion page' in italics

 - - - [[Talk:A Hole in the World (Angel episode)|''Discussion page'']]


4) A http direct web link to 'revision' named Revision history

[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A_Hole_in_the_World_%28Angel_episode%29&action=history ''Revision history'']

5) A brief explanantion of link

 - ''Angel'' episode 5.15. Fred opens up an ancient sarcophagus.

6) A 'stop' for the text to be small

Please help me add[edit]

I just created five new Buffy pages, but I'm having trouble figuring out the naming conventions for this page. Can someone please add them for me? The articles are as follows: Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Game Boy Color), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (video game), Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Wrath of the Darkhul King, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds and Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Quest for Oz Ace of Sevens 05:15, 3 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya, I added the five new articles. The raw code looks like this:
*[[XXX]] - - - <small>[[Talk:XXX|''Discussion page'']] - [YYY ''Revision history''] - ZZZ</small>
XXX = name of article
YYY = web adddress of revision history
ZZZ = description of article
However if you create more articles or notice any more not in list and bring them to attention here I can always add them. Nice work on creating the articles for separate video games. -- Paxomen 12:14, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Changes[edit]

I have done some changes. First of all, I removed the "talk" and "history" links. According to this, we should avoid self references in articles (in other words, an article cannot link to anything other than an article, so history or talk pages are not allowed). And then I removed the images because they were used decoratively, which is not allowed by our fair use criteria, point 8. -- ReyBrujo 00:13, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
