Dragool

Cmdr Diamond, I made your "dragool" write-up into a full fledged entry on the wiki, and linked it to the Vulcan flora and fauna page. Hope you don't mind. -Varaan 13:49, 9 August 2006 (CDT)

If you want to link it to any page in the wiki, just use [[Dragool]]. If you're linking from outside the wiki, the address is http://www.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=Dragool&rcid=16402 -Varaan 14:12, 9 August 2006 (CDT)

Favorite sim

I've moved it to Diamond, Paul/SIM Archive so it's now a sub-page of the character page. I did this as the title Favorite sim is ambiguous so we don't know by that title whos favourite sims are meant or who the sims are about. Also, each page title can only be used once so if another person tried to create their own page of favourite sims and left their character name out of the title, they would stumble straight into yours (unless they use UK English like I do).

The page currently stands at 59kb, which is nearly double the recommended maximum of 32kb and that is before the page has been "wikified" to fix the layout problems. I would suggest splitting each sim onto its own page perhaps? For an example, I keep a catalogue of what I feel are some of my best sims, plus key sims for my character, listed on my characters page (see Salak, the link will take you straight to the Archive near the bottom). Each sim is titled SIM:Character name:title of sim, such as SIM:Lt.JG Salak: The Dangers of a Cup of Tea.... This format means that it is clear the page is a sim, and also prevents duplication as the chances of someone else having a sim of the same title using a character with the same name and rank are somewhat slim. Hope this helps. - Lt.JG Salak 21:03, 11 August 2006 (CDT)
