This is short hand for "naming convention". If you see '''NC''' as noted reason for a page move, it's likely that I've moved a page that doesn't conform to our [[Naming pages properly|standard naming practices]] - often this is because it's using the old [Surname, Given name] format, other times it's simply because a page name is either misleading, too long, or players looking for it wouldn't find it very easily. | This is short hand for "naming convention".

====What do your edits marked ''MFD'' mean?==== | |||
This is short hand for "marked for deletion", as those images will also have the [[Template:Delete]] displayed. If the image was uploaded to the wiki before Jan 1st, 2020 (AEST), and is not currently displayed on a page, I've likely marked it for deletion. If I've added the delete template to your image, but you wish to keep it, edit the image page and remove <nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki> ASAP. | |||
Alternatively, if you see an image that is in the deletion category, and you have a way to utilise it, ''please do'', and remove the <nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki> template. | |||
====What do your edits marked ''LC'' mean?==== | |||
This is short hand for "lacking categories", meaning I've likely added the [[Template:Lacking categories|Lacking categories]] template because I'm unable to determine an appropriate category for the page or image I've come across. | |||

=====Why have you marked pages as "stubs"?===== | =====Why have you marked pages as "stubs"?===== | ||
If I've gone ahead and added [[Template:stub]] to a page, it is lacking information regarding the topic or is simply too short (only one or two sentences long) to be it's own specific page right now. You can edit a page to add more information, and therefore remove <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> from the top of the page. | If I've gone ahead and added [[Template:stub]] to a page, it is lacking information regarding the topic or is simply too short (only one or two sentences long) to be it's own specific page right now.

====What is the difference between the templates ''[[Template:Categorize|categorize]]'' and ''[[Template:Lacking categories|Lacking categories]]''?==== | |||
Difficulty. | |||
Pages with [[Template:Categorize]] just need basic, easy to find categories to bring them in line with every other page like them. Think of these pages as being Categorization Training - Easy Mode. | |||
Pages with [[Template:Lacking categories]] have content so obscure or unique that at the time of adding the template, I lacked credible categories to put on them. Think of these pages as part of Categorization Training - Hard Mode. That's why there's a wiki event and [[Player achievements/Wiki Events|player achievement]] for adding categories to a certain number of these pages. Because I know they're not as easy to find categories for. | |||

You can create a '''template''', which can be displayed on all pages but edited only from it's source. These can be created by making a page named ''Template:[name]''. They can be displayed by typing ''{{[name]}}''. They're edited like any other page. | You can create a '''template''', which can be displayed on all pages but edited only from it's source.
