| 20:26.42 | SignpostMarv | what're the thoughts on the welcome message things ? |
| 20:27.32 | Ose | could use a rewrite |

| 20:36.33 | Ose | SignpostMarv: take a look at http://www.wowwiki.com/User:Watchoutbot |
| 20:36.57 | SignpostMarv | I'm making it a point to write a bot from scratch :-P |
| 20:37.02 | Ose | and http://www.wowwiki.com/WoWWiki:Guild_stubs |
| 20:37.21 | Ose | you can still get inspiration |
| 20:37.30 | Ose | for functions |
| 20:37.58 | SignpostMarv | I'll be adding stuff as and when I need it |
| 20:38.06 | SignpostMarv | is a certified genius :-P |
| 20:38.27 | Ose | I was thinking of doing something like the wowwiki guld stubs where the author gets 30 days to make a proper content page before it's deleted |
| 20:39.00 | SignpostMarv | seems reasonable |
| 20:39.07 | SignpostMarv | what about stuff that was uploaded in 2006 ? |
| 20:40.38 | Ose | there could be like a 30 day period to use an image somewhere before we did a mass deletions spree as well |
| 20:40.50 | Ose | stubs from 2006 = 30 days then delete |
| 20:42.23 | Ose | I've also been thinking about how to separate |
| 20:42.24 | Ose | 1. Legit content (made in-game) |
| 20:42.26 | Ose | 2. Concepts (could be made in-game) |
| 20:42.28 | Ose | 3. fanon (purely made up, can't be made (religions? sports?) |
| 20:43.07 | Ose | my latest opinion is one namespace for #1, one for #2, and the fanon wiki for #3 |
| 20:43.23 | Ose | but my opinions change often |
| 20:44.04 | SignpostMarv | isn't there already a Content and Concept namespace ? |
| 20:44.16 | Ose | only content |
| 20:44.50 | Ose | some pages are mis-labeled as [[Concept:foo]] though |
| 20:44.50 | Dotted | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Concept:foo |
| 20:44.54 | SignpostMarv | the definition of Fanon is a little.... |
| 20:45.00 | Ose | loose? |
| 20:45.01 | SignpostMarv | unsuitable for your suggested usage |
| 20:45.34 | Ose | that's why I want a community to reach a concensus |
| 20:45.41 | SignpostMarv | "elements which are not in the official canon of a fictional world but are widely believed to be or treated as if they were canonical" |
| 20:46.06 | Ose | fanon/fan-fiction/whatever |
| 20:46.38 | SignpostMarv | If someone writes a back story for their race of creatures, it is by definition only applicable to their creatures, and not accepted as part of unofficial canon |
| 20:50.42 | Ose | [[Content:Introi/Chronology]] and [[Content:Introi/Architecture]] is a bit much in my opinion (and those two I moved to a subpage, originally they were on separate pages) |
| 20:50.43 | Dotted | Ose meant: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Content:Introi/Chronology, http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Content:Introi/Architecture |
| 20:50.58 | SignpostMarv | a fictional backstory for a creature, planet, empire etc, would wither go on Content:Foo or Concept:Foo |
| 20:51.47 | Ose | a fictional backstory /could/ go on the same page or subpage of the content/concept it is about |
| 20:52.20 | SignpostMarv | fictional content that doesn't apply to a specific content/concepts should go in User:<insert author's name>/<insert title of fiction> |

| 21:19.58 | Ose | no, but fanon is used in the names of the other fiction wikis |
| 21:20.19 | Ose | so there's what (mis)leaded me to that namechoice |
| 21:21.36 | SignpostMarv | We can probably move stuff to a Fiction namespace, |
| 21:21.52 | SignpostMarv | then use a bot to export content between wikis, if it turns out there's a shit-load of fictional content |

| 21:38.18 | Ose | they shouldbe taken from the appropriate folder on the creators pc, not from teh intarwebz |
