Hey. It seems that back the end of January you edited the [[Arena]] page, removing the redirect to [[cage#Arena]] and replacing it with a statement that "'''Arenas are now in the game!'''" - which is awkward, considering they aren't, and that there are links to "arena" in a variety of articles, and that it's not an uncommon search word. Already confused at least one user. I hid that text for now. Once 2010 is up and running, that page will ''continue'' as a redirect for 40d, and a new current-version "Arena" article will be needed with the new info. --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 16:40, 20 March 2010 (UTC) | Hey.

What about {{version}}?
Did you have something like this in mind? category:version template:version (: VengefulDonut 21:32, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
Dwarf Fortress Wiki talk:Versions VengefulDonut 22:18, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- I set it up intending for it to be more of a staging namespace for us. --Briess 00:42, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
Your message to me
ie, here
Thanks for the link.
Is the intent to mark every article with a version number? Garrie 10:00, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- The intent is to mark every relevant article with the version it is up to date as of. So effectively yes. In order to let users know the page is up to date, and editors to know that it needs to be updated. If you have more questions about my suggestion you could use the talk page for that link I gave you so everyone else can participate. Thanks. Mason (T-C) 11:46, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
DF2010
So I realize you're proud of the meme you're starting, but please stop spreading it. Here is why:
- There is going to be more than one version of DF in 2010. If the terminology sticks, it will only throw people off.
- The wiki is going to have specific labels for versions, even if they have nicknames elsewhere. The only issue is who will edit them in. If you entice many people into using "DF2010" in wiki articles, there will be more for me to clean up.
PSo even though it feels good to spread it, please understand you are doing harm. VengefulDonut 16:22, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
It seems I misunderstood your goal here. Although it would be a problem if you were trying to make the term permanent, apparently you're not. So I take back what I said about causing harm. VengefulDonut 19:48, 15 March 2010 (UTC)
P.S: If you don't want to be misunderstood, there are ways to fight that. I still plan to take what you say seriously, although I guess I can stop if that's something you want.
I'm a bit confused here. Why are you attacking me? VengefulDonut 13:11, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
Uncategorized Pages
It doesn't appear I can actually do that without seriously hacking the software. I'm still looking, but the code to find uncategorized pages is such a clusterfuck of stupid that we may be out of luck. --Briess 02:56, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
