MafiaWiki talk:To-do

From the PM:

Right, I've moved the wiki flat files over to /mafiawiki and moved MediaWiki to /wiki. The change on the wiki shouldn't be noticeable unless I've messed something up (jeep might want to check to make sure I haven't...).

Anyway, Mr. Flay and I have been playing a bit with MediaWiki, but now I want to invite the newly formed Wiki Group to register and test as well. Once you've registered we'll set you up as a Sysop (you'll probably only ever need this added access for the few protected pages we might have).

Before we get started on the bulk of the moving, there's probably a few things we should discuss, such as:

Categories - What categories do we need? (Roles, Rules/Gameplay, Games, Setups, Users, Forum, Wiki... what else?) Format and Style - How should pages be formatted? Within a category, I'd like to keep things pretty standard. Also some style conventions... how to name pages, stuff like that. Stuff We Should Have - I've mentioned one above; I'd really like to see us start getting some information on the games we've played on the wiki. I think one of the next things I will play with is making pages for the Open Games... mess around with the format and such. Likewise with the setups, I'd like to get the various Open Setups from the discussion thread on the wiki for easy reference. What else?

Anyway, that's enough to get us started for now.

Categories

Apart from the ones mith suggested I'd like a Community, and a Mish-Mash category. (Mish-Mash is for rules of common Mish-Mash games, Community is for all sorts of articles that don't really have a direct connection to the game, nor to a specific player (Examples: MeMeMeet, Scummie, History of mafiascum.net). Furthermore, I suggest to split what mith called Rules/Gameplay into two different categories: Rules and Strategy or something.... (I'm not particularly happy with the name 'Rules', stuff like newbie guides should go there too, who can think of something better?)
