I threw in a couple fantasy scenario designations, but haven't done the scenario pages. You have a designer page now, as does Harlan Thompson and Stefan Hartel and extra nemo and extra alex and another Case scenario. I just haven't uploaded any of them yet. I've been looking at the spanish civ2 scenarios and putting those designers into the wiki.

Good work.

I've put up a Fairline's Favourites sidebar as a proof of concept on a few relevant pages.

BTW, I think reviews should link to the download page rather than actual files. Easier to update things that way.:P

isn't that what we've been doing?

and I left a question in the talk page about Fairlain's side bar about a naming convention you used.

Also made the wanted nick dowling page point at Case. Still debating how much more I want to work on this instead of more important stuff.

How about using the fact that one of them is for ToT and the other isn't i.e. Russian Civil War (ToT).

I really like the wiki BTW. I might be inspired to dabble in it someday and create a page for my scenarios.

My scenario for ToT is actually called "Red October". The old one I did for FW called "Russian Civil War", predates Alex the M's scenario of the same name. It's obsolete now, and should be dropped.

Also, I'd would prefer if the only reference to authorship would be "techumseh", not any proper names. Thanks.

Since anyone can write anything they want in the wiki, you'll have to do some policing of that yourself, but I think I can say with some certainty, that if one of us does know you by your real name, they wouldn't use. He can correct me if I'm wrong, but Case doesn't seem to mind his real name being used in conjuction with his creations, and that's why everyone knows his name. Personally I'm going to use Case.

1. Put both on the same page. Probably the best solution. Use the extra heading levels.

2. Create a Russian Civil War (Techumseh) page for one and have links from one to the other and back.

3. Create a Russian Civil War (Techumseh) page, a Russian Civil War (Alex Mor) page, and make Russian Civil War a disambiguation page with links to both.

New official policy: If scenario maker was active under a pseudonym, use that pseudonym instead of any leaked real name. I am going to get rid of all page titles with Case's and DarthVeda's real names right now. Their names can be mentioned if deemed appropriate by them.

I should be writing these policies down somewhere.

the trouble with that sidebar of yours Leo, is that when you update the template, each page that the template is on doesn't update, so you have to go through each one and click update.

Tips section is ready to be filled. I've transferred one of the old tips and put up a directory of what else needs to be moved. Feel free to add new ones.

Anyone else care to take a whack at it? H Tower's been doing a great job with the downloads. Just keep editing and tweaking until you get it right. Learn as you go.^-^

Leo and I can't do this on our own...

If someone would be so kind as to make a list of the newer scenarios (and what thread they are in) that have been created and aren't located anywhere except on the message board, I'll go on another kick and add a few of those. It would also be a great place for people wanting to job into the project to start too.

the great thing about Wiki is that it saves previous versions, reverting back is pretty simple and took me 3 minutes to do.

Now that's exactly why a wiki so good... It's all still there. Click on the History link to see previous versions...

I'd restore the stuff now, but I'm having dinner.

You're doing some tremendous work H Tower (and Leo )

I'd like to take on the job of adding some key graphics files to the site. I'll dig out what I have for the following artists:

BeBro
Nemo
Alex
Erwan
Catfish (I'll ask him first as his stuff is posted only at his own site)
Hardjoy
Arne
Curt
Favoured Flight

These are the guys I think have produced some of the best original work. Can anyone think of anybody I've missed here, and if so can you post their gfx for inclusion?

good work so far with your scenarios, but it's time for a little lesson to help you out.

on the Eivind IV page, http://sleague.apolyton.net/index.p...egory:Eivind_IV
you have a link to "Blitzkrieg", when you most likely should be pointing at "The Blitzkrieg Series"

also you've got the same thumbnail you used for the blitzkrieg scenarios for mafia and the rest of your scenarios. it might be better to not have a thumbnail available at all than the wrong one.


For those wanting to help out and unsure of where to start, here's a list of pages that are wanted, pages that have been linked to by completed pages, but haven't been created yet.

# Category:Kobayashi (11 links)

Great. Just created a [resources] tab that points to the Civ2 Graphics category.

Here's the plan:
1. Ignore the subpages for now. Just stick things on the main page. Categorize with headings.

2. Try to upload compilations instead of individual units. Well, there's nothing preventing you from uploading individual units, but it would be an administrative pain.

3. Upload stuff.

4. When uploading, stick the equivalent of [[Category:FavFlight]][[Category:Civ2 Units]] into the description. The first thing's the artist and the second is the kind of graphic:
- Civ2 Units
- Civ2 Cities
- Civ2 Icons
- Civ2 Other
- Civ2 Terrains

5. Add what you've uploaded to the main Civ2 Graphics page under an appropriate heading.

6. If you can, fill out the corresponding artist pages while doing this. Artists should all be placed in [[Category:Artists]].

Thanks.
