Does it make sense for maps to have a wiki article? (I have no clue about the maps)
Avatar
I don't know, what do you want to write there? Tricks for the maps? History?

For well known maps could make sense

Yes, history, and for me as a player it would be nice to get inspiration of what dummy maps to do. Well I guess I should just watch youtube walkthroughs. But there are so many maps, but for new players, it's not easy (at least for me) to get a grasp of what works to play. I mean why is multeasy permanently played. Is there a statistic how much time is spend on maps compared? +----------------+--------------------+---------------------+ | Map | Years | Map Release Date | +----------------+--------------------+---------------------+ | Multeasymap | 30.701681553776286 | 2020-09-20 00:09:00 | | Kobra | 29.757993722866296 | 2014-01-19 19:43:00 | I mean just. How I play tw: Open browser>see people on either SimpleDown/Grandma/... maybe it would make the server map choosing.. give it more variety when people know the map better.

im personally against articles for individual maps
15:15
the knowledge on wiki should be aplicable in a general sense
15:15
if i deleted ur page dont create it again...
Avatar
i think most popular maps should get one
15:16
stronghold, multeasymap, tutorial map
Avatar
make a tutorial about a tutorial map
15:17
sounds waste
Avatar
people need to know the map exist
Avatar
i dont like articles about individual maps, that shoudl be discovered by playing
15:17
there could be articles about common parts u may encounter
15:17
they can know the map exists by going to ddnet.tw
15:18
this is wasted effort
15:18
but if @Zwelf thinks its ok then go for it

at least include small map lists in each technique to give popular map using this technique, or training map

a small list of maps on each technique article is fine (edited)
15:20
but he is not doing that
15:20
he is creating a page with a map name

yeah i know, small map lists is another proposition if a map page is refused ๐Ÿ™‚

@cauldron idk if ur wcoldrun, but creating a talk page on my user page is not the place, you should initiate a conversation on the talk page of the main article

and sign what you say by adding "~~~~" (it gets replaced with ur name)
15:22
I really would like to enable wiki translations, but doing so right now would make the VisualEditor unusable due to it not being compatible with the Translate extension, you can view more about the issue here:

that fits the getting started article, which no one has written yet
Avatar
i can work on it, what exactly should it focus on? @Ryozuki
Avatar
i guess it should explain most of the basics
17:30
and link to articles for more depth
17:30
explaining the controls too
Avatar
hmm maybe we can add like a flowchart to explain the relationship between ddnet and teeworlds in there too?
18:19
can someone capitalize all the page names btw
18:19
idk how to do it
18:20
(i.e. "Getting Started" instead of "Getting started")

edit source
18:21
instead of edit

Yeah, I agree with Ryozuki, no articles for single maps for now. It can fit into other articles like getting started. If the map section gets to big, we can create a map article. If the article about maps gets to big, we can split it into separate separate article of each map, but that probably wont happen.

what abt this
Avatar
Yeah sure, if it looks nice and presents useful information. Could also include DDRace, (and other ddrace servers like ddmax, Kog?). Wouldn't fit into the main page, but the DDRace mod page/Kog mod page (when we get around to add those pages)
18:26
@Ryozuki, did you have time to play around with the infobox plugin? (edited)

Kog = main mod greenthing
