Come on guys you know what this stuff is. Fill it in.

Breakup into separate pages

These really should each have their own page so we can categorize properly. Also makes linking in the 'wiki-way' possible. --Bradsul 19:56, 27 February 2007 (CST)

Some of these don't really need to have there own page. How about having each letter have it own page and than we can sub-catorogrize the list from there?--Sause 20:00, 27 February 2007 (CST)

I'm just thinking that if we do it like wikipedia people can set links to things within their page text so that users can click through and back without having to scan for the information. Also the built-in categorization will take all the work out of maintaining a master list. It's handy to be able to say goto wikiurl/aau or go to wikiurl/Glossary which will just point to Category:Glossary. Gives you a nice slick layout without having to do anything. Check out the beer category to see what I mean, it's all automatic. --Bradsul 20:09, 27 February 2007 (CST)

Ok, sounds good. How did you that page have multiple row like that? I'll start making pages. I thought you wanted a little description and a page, that would have been over kill.--Sause 20:25, 27 February 2007 (CST)

If you're talking about the category pages, that is automatic. The wiki generates them for you (though you can edit the top of them). When you start making the pages, include [[Category:Glossary]] at the top before the rest of the content. That includes them in the category. The pages don't need a ton of detail either, these are all just database records afterall. That's what's great about a wiki. --Bradsul 20:52, 27 February 2007 (CST)

This page is all moved over to the category page. I can't seem to get the link on the main page to link to the category page though.

I set the redirect on the Glossary page. I'll set a redirect on this one as well. --Bradsul 22:04, 27 February 2007 (CST)
It looks like you guys are working on the structure of the Wiki. Some off it's beyond me though so I'll leave you to it and just stick to adding content where I can. Is it possible that if you add pages you can stick a navigation section on there as I did with most of the existing pages. Good work guys.--Orfy 06:49, 28 February 2007 (CST)
I was thinking of making a template for that to save work when entering the pages. That way we only have one thing to change if we add a navigation item or something. --Bradsul 08:30, 28 February 2007 (CST)

Sounds Good.--Orfy 09:18, 28 February 2007 (CST)
