Talk:Entropia Universe/entropia universe infobox

Contested deletion

This page should not be speedily deleted because... Well I have done a lot of work on another wiki and think that putting those info boxes on their own page makes editing the main page a lot more readable and less scary for people to edit, without all those weird pieces of text right at the top of the page.

Also, why add the ability to transclude pages into other pages if you don't allow people to use it?

Which Wikipedia did you previously edit, your SUL says you have only edited the English Wikipedia. The English Wikipedia does not make templates in the article namespace, I would personally move this page to the template namespace but it is preferred to have a template transclude a template (unless needed). Please do not make duplicate pages to bypass possible deletion. -- Cheers, Riley Huntley _talk 18:25, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have done little work on wikipedia, but together with a one other person I have set up most of this wiki:

http://www.entropiaplanets.com/wiki/EntropiaPlanets_Wiki

This wiki is all about the Entropia Universe and in one of the game forums the wikipedia page was mentioned and it came to my attention that a lot of the info on wikipedia about the game is either outdated or just wrong and I decided to change it.

Transcluding pages helps to get pages organized in my opinion as long as they are sub pages of the main page.

I was planning to make a page for every planet in the game as well (Entropia Universe\Planet Arkadia) and maybe transclude just the basic info to the Entropia universe main page, so there is one place that has the info, but you can read it on 2 pages.

Also this main info box, I was planning to use on the separate planet pages as well, because the info in there is the same for all planets minus the developer, which would have been removed and display another way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robindeurloo (talk • contribs) 18:36, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Man, it takes more time to know and understand what I can and can't do around here than it takes time to actually write the page. Guess this place is not for me. Hoping anyone else will correct the false info in the page I was going to edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robindeurloo (talk • contribs) 05:39, 18 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
