Warriors Wiki talk:Books

Previous/Next
Okay, so on the chapter subpages should there be links up at the top of the page, probably under the page numbers, linking to the next and previous chapter in the book? A bit like how there's the preceeded by/followed by bit on the main book pages. I know you could just scroll down to the bottom to find the link, but some of these chapters end up having quite a bit of content in them. 00:23, November 28, 2012 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind that suggestion, actually. and for lazy people like me who can't be bothered to scroll from here to the moon and back... Anyone else? 05:09, November 29, 2012 (UTC)

I like this idea, too. And I admit, I'm a lazy bum and would use this. 12:11 Thursday November 29 2012

I'm in support of this. ouo 19:44, November 29, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm... I like this idea. Could we make a template for it, or, just manually enter the chapters. Personally, I think a template would be easier, unless that's not possible. I'm not exactly sure. Regardless, I /do/ like the idea and think we should use it. Like Leggo, I'm lazy as all hell.

I love this, perhaps a template saying what chapter you're on and whar chapter is before and after. x3 21:36, November 29, 2012 (UTC)

Well, with that ^ why not just make one of those infoboxes so that you just plug in the information, but with the name of the book, then the chapter out of how many, then the pages, then the POV, and then finally the previous and next chapters? Basically, what we already put just in a tidy box. I think that would look nice, although I have nothing against what's already there.

If we don't want to do that I think just putting something like a left-aligned previous chapter, bolded current chapter, and a right-aligned next chapter at the very top of the page or right before the summary. 19:00, December 2, 2012 (UTC)

Nomination Limit
Title says it all, guys. I was talking with Leggo, and realized that we don't actually have a set number for this, like PC, PW, and PR do with their nominations. I mean, I don't even think we have a set limit. So, taking into consideration the quote nominations, the subpage nominations, and the article nominations, what should the official limit be?

Leggo and I were thinking between five and seven, since the project is small and honestly, we only have a few active members. Of course, you should really only take on as many nominations as you can handle, and the number above would be a maximum only. Not the number you should have up at a time. I know it seems like a lot, but if you take into account the fact that the subpages don't really take as much time as a character article (  unless you're 'teldy, Duck, or I, and write at a million miles a minute. ilu guys. xD   you should able able to handle more than one at a time.

So, yeah. We were thinking that we should really set an actual limit, that way people are aware how many total nominations they're allowed to have at a given time. This would take into account the quote, subpage, and article nominations, just to remind you. This would also have a vote (I think), and go into the guidelines. Soooo, comments everyone?

And I agree with Cloudy and Leggy on this one. When I joined, I was literally surfing the guidelines like, "Doesn't this project have some sort of nomination limit?" like the other projects did. And I like the number that Cloudy and Leggy came up with. Since I myself was looking for a limit, and the other projects do it, why not?  21:52 Thursday December 6 2012

(Skye you started a sentence at the end of your second paragraph, got into tiny font, and never finished it ouo) But, yes, we already discussed this, and I agree- five-seven nominations per person at a time, at the maximum. And it should go into the guidelines after an approved vote. 05:06, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

Shut up, I'll finish it. x.x I'm tired. Yeah, anyways. You got my point, though.

-brofists- ilu2 xD I'd agree to five to seven. In fact, I'd strongly recommend doing five, because it's true that, on average, subpages, quotes, and article nominations take a shorter amount of time, but I'm positive people will max out and not be able to complete all their nominations which makes it a pain in the rump to the leads and sometimes to other users. Seven is fine, but the I'd think it'd be best to have a warning of something like:
 * Users are allowed to have only seven nominations up (nominations including quotes, articles, and chapter subpages) but it is highly recommended you should only have five unless you can handle it. Should a nomination go inactive from a user that has more than five nominations up, that nomination, after a week, shall be declined and archived.

Or something along those lines. Of course, there's also the option where you can limit certain nominations which is also a great possibility. For example:
 * Users are only allowed to have one article nomination (which includes cliffnotes, allegiances, and the book article (or whatever you want to call it) ), three chapter subpage nominations, and three quote nominations.

The numbers are adjustable and it's whatever the project wants, but those are what I think would be best for entering into the guidelines a set number of nominations. 06:07, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

I was actually going to suggest that 'Teldy, having the nomination limit separated for the seperate nominations sounds wonderful, I agree with one article, three chapter subpage and three quote. owo 03:52, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Navigation template for the Warriors Adventure Game
Yeah, so I think that we should have a navigation template for  the Warriors Adventure Game I was working on Training Day the other day, and it took me a while to go and fine the next game. I think it should just look like the Chapter pages' template. So, comments? 21:44, December 6, 2012 (UTC)

I agree with Duck. We've pretty much given a navigation template to everything except the Warriors Adventure Game stuff. And if Duck has a problem without the navigation template, most likely others would. This would be really useful.  21:48 Thursday December 6 2012

Wonderful idea, Duck, and well-spotted. I completely forgot that we didn't have one of those. I'd be up for making one. Or, we could edit the already existing navigation template. But, since there's already a lot on there... I wouldn't mind just making a new one entirely but just use the same layout as the others.

These Adventure Games have always confused me..I can never figure out how to play in the first place, let alone begin to navigate. xD But, yes, we could use a navigation template for those pages. A new template wouldn't be horrible, if someone's up to coding it, as long as they keep relatively the same layout. 05:12, December 7, 2012 (UTC)

I can do it. o3o It'll take me a couple minutes, and I can start a layout once I've gotten some sleep. xD

Well, that didn't take that long... so what about this, guys? Simple, sweet, and follows the rest of the navi-templates we already use.

Looks good to me~ 03:46, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

Looks wonderful to me, also. =) 03:48, December 11, 2012 (UTC)

And just throwing this out there; if we have to add more, which we more than likely will, with Dawn of the Clans coming out soon, the template will be the same as the Cliffnotes, Main Articles, ect. Simple and easy to edit and add more to.

Looks fabulous. And, okay^^ 23:57, December 15, 2012 (UTC)

That template, Cloudy, looks exactly how I pictured it. That looks amazing. And that ^^ is just fine by me.  14:58 Sunday December 16 2012

Have we come to an agreement on this? 20:02, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

I think we have. If no one else has any issues with this, I'll move it to a template and add it to the Adventure Game pages.

Idea for Mistakes in the warriors series
I understand that the way it is organized is separated by book, but I'd like to suggest adding another few sections to the specified book, such as Fur Color errors, Timing Errors and other errors. Not much to explain, but I think it might work. --  Atomic  The collective baby~  23:42, December 31, 2012 (UTC)

I like this idea; great thinking Starry! If you're only looking for one mistake, in a book like Crookedstar's Promise, where there are tons of errors, it would be easier to find that one mistake in question. Plus, in the Cats of the Clans section, there is a place for image mistakes, there are that many.  02:25 Tuesday January 1 2013

I like this idea. Like Tawny said, if you're looking for one mistake it would be easier if it's split up. Plus, in several sections, there's so many mistakes it's hard to find the one you're looking for. 02:49, 01/1/2013

I don't think this is a good idea. Honestly, that page is edited so many times, and people add and remove things so much...that it really wouldn't be good. It would be hard to keep track of what is what on the page, and would be more trouble than it's worth.

I'm partial to agree with Skye...the page is edited so frequently...it would get difficult over time. A little more trouble than it's worth. 18:03, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

I agree with Cloudy and Leggy. It's fine as it is and it would just make things trickier. 18:19, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I agree with Cloudy, Leggy, and Breezy, it's easier just to have it like it is now. x3 19:11, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

After thinking it over for a while I think I'm going to agree with Cloudy, Leggy, Breezy, and Duck. It would be a bit more trouble than it's worth. 23:09, 01/1/2013

I would support this if the page were a bit smaller. It has so many edits, and so many actual trivial pieces that this would make it more confusing.-- 19:56, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

I think it's fine the way it is. Organizing by book is plenty enough and I actually don't think it's that hard for people to skim through a section and look for certain errors. 20:01, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

February FA
Y'all know the drill by now. Ideas?

Possibly Shattered Peace or The Heart of a Warrior. owo 04:02, January 13, 2013 (UTC)

I think Crookedstar's Promise could be an idea.

Oooh, I'd love to see another graphic novel become an FA. It's been a good few months since we've done one, I believe. Both of them look good, as does Crookedstar's Promise.

Okay, seriously? Guys, this needs to go up tomorrow and no one has commented aside from me, Duck, and Stoner. ._. I'm just going to randomly pick one out of the ones here if no one else speaks up.
