Comixpedia.org To Do List

xerexes's picture

This is a bit like the to-do list I have for the rest of Comixpedia - if things need to get done on the site - like fixes, etc, post them here.

Need to do?

1. EDT/EST versus UTC time zone: When I sign with ~~~~ on this wiki, it puts the time in "EDT" or "EST" time zone, which is strange, because page histories and Special:Recent changes use UTC time zone. I propose that someone fix ~~~~ signatures to use UTC time zone. --Kernigh 20:39, 8 Nov 2005 (EST)

2. [[Comixpedia]] causes horrible problems with the software!

At least <nowiki> tags let me fix links. This broken link [[Comixpedia:Community Portal]] must be written as [[Comixpedia]]:Community Portal.

But some things are broken. Try clicking the "What links here" link on this page. It makes an error ("Bad Title"). --Kernigh 14:39, 18 November 2005 (EST)

3. Spam Issues

4. Add links on comixpedia.org to Comixpedia.com news submit, calendar submit

I'm going to change the namespace to fix the problem

But how much chaos is that going to cause?

And what kind of characters can we change it to and does it have to be one word or can it be two?

Anyhow I'm sorry I didn't fix this earlier - will do so now but I hesitate to do so tonight if it's going to cause a lot of cleanup work (I won't have time to tackle much more tonight).

I wish you'd change the template back to the WikiBook one (the one Wikipedia uses). It's so much prettier. Seriously.

Also, THAT template needs a logo in the left hand corner uploaded.

What I really need someone who knows how to create template/themes for wikimedia. We really need one that looks more like the rest of Comixpedia then the default ones that come with it. Plus I need to understand how to add in more default links to it - like to this forum for example.

You can change your skin in your preferences page (MonoBook is the default on Wikibooks). I've got Classic on all my wikis.
