Outdated
Lots of things need to be updated. The button section at the bottom is the most obvious. The section on ToCs could also use a bit of work. -- Prod 23:14, 16 October 2006 (CDT)


 * Don't we need the link to OoT to go to the begining as the main page isn't that much of a good example--Rocky [[Image:Rally-X_Rock.png|25px]]  ( Talk Contributions ) 09:01, 4 March 2007 (CST)
 * Just what I thought a while ago. I'll change that right now. Also, what's wrong with the buttion section?--Dan 09:02, 4 March 2007 (CST)

Using / instead of the base name
In every ToC I've seen we use BaseGameName/Page rather than /Page/. The policy denotes using /Walkthrough/ so what's correct? --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 19:29, 5 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Yeah, that policy is being completely disregarded. I think that what we are currently doing (with BASEPAGENAME and walkthrough pages NOT being subpaged under walkthrough) should be set as the new policy. Anybody else have any comments on this? --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 09:00, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * I think that in the ToC we shouldn't have everything a sub-page of walkthrouh but in the toc use this layout  on the ToC because it saves a lot of characters

I agree with the "/Whatever" links for new ToC's. However, it actually takes up more space by removing the game names on existing pages (as that previous diff is retained). But the "/Walkthrough/" should definitely be removed from the policy. Also, it should have some sort of reference to the new preload buttons we have for new pages, as they can automatically lay out the ToC (and they include the "/Table of Contents" into the main page, removing the need of maintaining two (read the ToC section thoroughly to see what I'm talking about)). Finally, do you think this policy would better fit into the Guide? It seems like a crucial part of making one. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 11:30, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Probably better there, If you're OK with it, I'll change the templates.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:33, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Actually, it appears that it is already on the guide at Guide/Organization (and more up-to-date than this page). I'm thinking that we should slap a policy tag on top of that page and just delete this one. --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 11:36, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Should I change the preload template then?--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions) 11:39, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Not yet. I want to see what everyone else thinks about this (see the community portal talk page). --Ryan SchmidtTalk - Contribs 11:46, 6 May 2007 (CDT)
