Talk: Community portal

I have spent the last few weeks working with Curse and have nothing but positive things to day. They are all just as passionate and in love with games as I am. They want the wiki to a good user experience just like me, and we plan to make it as good as possible! - Smokie (talk) 17:24, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Categories

Hi there,

I think the categories could use a bit more standardisation. For example, most category names are plural but some are not. I propose that those which are not plural be changed. Also, many categories are redirected to the main article on the subject. This is unusual. I would propose that the main article for a given category be categorised to file first in that category and that the category itself not be redirected, but rather placed in the appropriate location in a category hierarchy, which brings me to my final point: There is no category hierarchy. I propose we make one.

I am more than happy to do this work, but before I make sweeping changes, I thought I'd run it by the community. Game widow (talk) 13:33, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

As seen on UncategorizedPages there are quite some pages even without categories, and like you said the rest is a mess ;)

I wouldn't mind to help with re-categorizing all the pages, although I'm not an Wiki expert so I might do some stupid things (like the category redirect to the main article, which seemed a perfect idea).

Any ideas on this subject would be great. - Grezvany13 (talk) 14:05, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

If you're OK with me making a few changes to demonstrate what I mean, i'll do them tomorrow and you can see exactly what i'm on about. Also, the idea wasn't a bad one, just unconventional :) Game widow (talk) 23:32, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

The Weapons category now demonstrates what i meant. Game widow (talk) 18:14, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

New Layout

First of all the new layout of the dayzwiki looks great, but
in my opinion the old logo of the wiki looked way better.
