Rooms in AreaName

I have been working on some structured way to add room information to the wiki. So far I've had nothing but compliments, so I figured I'd encourage everyone else in joining me on this project by describing the method..

  • First of all, all areas should have a subcategory [[Category:Rooms In AreaName]]. This should be categorised under Category:Rooms and [[Category:AreaName]].
  • The next step is probably the hardest, but not the most work. A clickable map should be made at [[Template:Rooms In Areaname]]. This template should be the first thing included in all rooms of the category, and in the [[Category:Rooms In AreaName]].
  • Then all the rooms need to be filled in, according to the Template For Room Pages.
  • Be sure to double-check if all of the rooms have different names for their wiki pages. If there's a logical arrangement among rooms with the same name, use that to name their wiki pages.
Done To be filled in
Rooms In Necropolis Rooms In Oak Circle
Rooms In Stonehall Rooms In Sanctum

Suggestion

As this project is getting larger, it is becoming harder to locate pages within the wiki via search. Maybe we could add some extra namespaces (not pseudo-namespaces) to the project to handle, for instance, room descriptions. It might also be good to make seperate namespaces for hero gear and lord gear, so that searches are not filled with items from a different tier.

The help information for this can be found at: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Using_custom_namespaces
