What seems to be the problem with external links (here) ? - Erik Baas 10:11, 11 May 2011 (PDT)
- if you goto lexbike.tk and click on any of the facebook links then there is an intermediary page that just has a small picture of facebook on it. I just don't want people thinking that I'm trying to send them to a virus or something. It's a conflict with facebook and the .tk domain registry and nothing to do with the WNBR Wiki site.
Pages and naming conventions
Hi Troy
Great to see all the work you're doing on the wiki. I just wanted to flag up a few conventions to keep things regular across the site:
- It is more usual, and easier for people to read, to have future date/s listed on the main ride location page, and previous rides info on a '...history' page (eg: Brighton and Brighton history)
- The List of rides page should include a short list of future and previous ride dates, not a link to your timeline/history
- Page titles and headlines should be in Sentence case (ie: only the first word and proper names capitalised)
- To link to an internal wiki page, use double square brackets around a page title — no need for the full URL
- To show how to write wiki code without it actually being formatted, wrap with HTML PRE tags
I'll make a few of these changes now, but in the mean time I hope that helps!
