It is exceedingly unintuitive to edit the contents of a template like Monarchy, a Beltline, or the member parks of a Kingdom. I have taken to just including a link in the discussion part of a page.

:Agreed. Perhaps I should create a script that will put these links on all of the chapter and kingdom pages, so we don't have to do it by hand? It will mean waiting a month or two for me to get it right, but it could save us time in the future. [[User:Ricken|Ricken]] ([[User talk:Ricken|talk]]) 15:52, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Welcome to the Admin noticeboard
This page is for posting information that is directed at or useful to AmtWiki:Administrators. Start all posts at the bottom with a == Heading Like This == and sign messages with ~~~~.

New Links for Admins

I've implemented a few standard wiki tools for improving AmtWiki. These will make it easier for editors to help make this project better. Please read the main page of these tools to see how they work, and why they are useful.

  • Cleanup, a template for marking pages in need for cleaning up, which also adds pages to Category:Articles needing cleanup.
  • Stub, a template for noting pages that are very short and need expanding, which adds marked pages to Category:Stubs. There are specific templates for pages in certain topics, listed as subcategories in the main category.

I've also begun expanding the non-comprehensive rules into full policies and guidelines, which you can read and review in my userspace at User:Ricken/SandboxPG. Please please please give your input on anything that you don't explicitly support.

Editing Content of Templates

It is exceedingly unintuitive to edit the contents of a template like Monarchy, a Beltline, or the member parks of a Kingdom. I have taken to just including a link in the discussion part of a page.
