The LL Wiki

Some of you may be aware that we have this little thing called the Lookout Landing Wiki on the sidebar. When I first started lurking around here, I would reference it constantly to figure out what the hell you people where talking about. Who the hell is Waste of Space? What does TWSS mean? Who the hell is Player A?

The Wiki was very useful to me about nine months to a year ago. I imagine it was also useful for people who were lurking around that time.

Unfortunately, the Wiki hasn't been updated in a while. The last entry made was back in July, and contains this information:

Butthol

Is a needy little bastard who needs a new username. And doesn't count.

Suffice to say, the wiki needs a bit of updating. Let's use this fanpost to discuss things that should go into the wiki, and perhaps get some volunteers to help update it.

Wiki ideas:

  • New player entries
  • Current memes
  • Memes we've killed
  • LLisms
  • New LL user entries

Any other suggestions? Ideas? Volunteers?

Would it be possible to make the search function more prominent?

I don’t know if that’s a canned front page or not but the wiki is almost violently unintuitive – if the search box were front and center instead of buried at the top right corner it might be easier to negotiate.

Do we need retro references too?

Is Fuzzy Math likely to make a comeback since Armstrong’s “small market” statements were made?

Furries

I regularly bait BrianL with them but I still have no idea why they started appearing on LL in the first place.

by Alex B on Sep 10, 2008 12:32 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Baek and el Jefe updated.

Clement needs to be moved to Current Roster and Baek needs to be moved to Former Players, but I can’t figure out how.

I'm going to start adding links to pages that I think we need

though I won’t have the time to edit until a bit later. Added some to Graham’s page (tRA and statcorner)

Please.

If Graham doesn't write tRA himself (or Matthew)

I’ll take a crack at it when I get home.

I promise to not have tables or graphs

There's an LL explanation--I think it's sidebarred. It's also on statcorner.

I have the brief explanation but didn’t want to include the long one, so wanted to link to it.

Who the heck bothered creating ASUBoyd's page?

A note:

Wiki entires are almost always sound better when written in detached third person, as if it were a real cyclopedia.

by JI on Sep 12, 2008 3:13 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Yes, I believe that will be my second cut at editing the wiki

to take many of the more commonly used persons (especially players) and try to write them less biased

I'm not entirely sure what this means.

Someone needs to revamp the front wiki page.

I'll shut up lest you ban me like you banned butthol.

by NOLAmarinergirl on Sep 13, 2008 6:10 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

All outdated entries have been updated.

There’s still a lot of cleaning up to do in the entries that didn’t need to be updated, but the player pages, site info stuff, etc should all reflect the current state of things.

I didn’t want to try and do this myself for fear of destroying the really fantastic formatting, but I thought it would be cool to add a “community” (or somesuch) menu to the top bar. Stuff like site info, memes, user entries and the like should be accessible from the front page, especially if the hope is to direct new folks over there to get a feel for things.

Also, lots of regulars need entries. I’ll try to get to some of this stuff today, but yeah, there’s work to be done.

Felix' page badly needs an update

but I’m neither funny nor insightful, so perhaps someone else should.

Edit the page called "top bar menu"
