== Minor Edit ==

gr: "a great deal of relevant links" should read "a great number of relevant links" --[[Contributor name:Inanna Zuni|Inanna Zuni]] 00:05, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

== Evelopedia Guide should be promoted to top. ==

Since the Evelopedia is just starting, it would be very useful for contributors if [[Guide]] is promoted into the front page link directly under [[EVElopedia_Policies|Evelopedia Policies]]. Particularly in reference to things like adding (Player Corporation) or (Player Alliance) after those two instances, since every corp and their dog are going to want to write about this stuff first (IMHO).

== COSMOS link ==

The link under missions for [[COSMOS Systems]] links to 0.0 COSMOS constellations thereby excluding all empire COSMOS--[[Contributor name:Simmith|Simmith]] 12:24, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

== Moving "Backstory" link ==

That's a usefu/importantl section, and its hidden right at the bottom. What about moving it to the Quick Reference section, underneath Eve Fiction category - Dropbear

== Period Consistancy ==

A minor detail but some of the link explainations end with a period while some do not. As the page is locked I could not fix this. Very minor I know :) - Winters Chill

== Move categories to the top ==

First time I checked out the new wiki site and I completely missed the categories down at the bottom of this page and wondered where all the content was hidden.

Newcomers who want to browse should see the categories more prominently, like at the top
of the this page.

== Auto linking is overzealous ==

The Autolinking feature on saving an article is currently overzealous, and needs some additional rules added to it:
* Do not autolink to the same page that is being written
** eg. the [[Factional Warfare]] page contains links to [[Factional Warfare]]
* Do not autolink to redirects to the same page that is being written
** eg. the [[Factional Warfare]] page has links to [[FW]]
* Do not autolink on the same word more than once in a sub-heading area
** Eg. You don't need to links to [[Serenity Steele]] more than once in a document level, because a second link to [[Serenity Steele]] does not assist the reader and only makes it harder to read.

:Adding to list (fully agree). [[Contributor name:DrAtomic|DrAtomic]] 00:58, 22 December 2008 (UTC)

* Dont link generic words that are common to use in eve related articles
** Eg. [[POS]], [[corp]], [[pvp]], [[cep]], [[corporation]], [[PVP]], [[CEO]], etc.
***Indeed, good point. [[Contributor name:Daquaris|Daquaris]] 17:12, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

==ParserFunction missing==

Can we get Parser Function installed? It is an extra module on MediaWiki 1.70 and above. More info at the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:ParserFunctions MediaWiki website]. Otherwise, it's hard to make templates that are adaptable, and are pretty rigid otherwise. In particular, [[Template:ShipFit]] is having to look like [[Template:ShipFitBlind]], which is not good, I want to differentiate between purposefully empty slots. There might be another way to do this, but right now, it's missing functionality. Direct comments to my talk page, thanks. Oh yeah, the moderation module is breaking Redirects, until they are approved. Once they're approved, they redirect just fine. --[[Contributor name:Kismeteer|Kismeteer]] 08:51, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
:Note, this is still an on-going problem and will inhibit proper use of templates in the future. As of the last week of 2008, this request was denied, so don't use the #if clause in any template creation. --[[Contributor name:Kismeteer|Kismeteer]] 21:47, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

== Character and Corporation templates need fixing for IGB ==

The character and corporation templates both have a right-floated table with global info as well as the portrait / logo image. In the ingame browser, these tables show up left-aligned in front of the content text, effectively making these pages unreadable. As the EVElopedia is supposed to be ingame browser compatible, I think it would be good to modify these templates so they are at least readable.

Template: [[Template:Character|Character]]
Example: [[AeonOfTime_(Character)|AeonOfTime]]

Template: [[Template:Player_Corporation|Player Corporation]]
Example: [[Syrkos_Technologies_(Player_corporation)|Syrkos Technologies]]
