The few pages I've read seem pretty ok. Congratulations on a nice job! Smile

Thanx

But I'd like to see the pages where changes from the original helpfile have been made clearly marked, or perhaps a link to the original page would be enough. Sherlock

I considered entering the original text, saving the page, and then correcting; to preserve the historical information, but I thought that might have been a bit too anal Laughing

links to that awful extraction would be too easy tho.

Also, could it be possible to collate the info into a less atomized version? One of the problems with the original hlp file, IMHO, is the difficulty in getting anywhere without the search function. In your wiki it should be possible to have a handful "big" pages instead of a thousand mobile-phone-sized snippets. Deal

Yeah I've been trying to do that somewhat, I'm trying to avoid monster pages(eg) and more importantly making sure I can keep track of what links where - linking to a section of a page is fine, as long as I remember that the page I need to link to is now a section of another page. Mostly I've been doing the amalgamations like so using tooltips to reduce the barrage of info, and providing another page with full (printable!) info of that section. and Again with this but separated from that.

Making a few of monster pages wouldn't be hard tho - just transclude whatever other content you want only a single page (which is how the utils full index works) and fill the transcluded pages so they work both ways.

Interconnecting the SPG pages with the existing wiki(or FAQ) content is going to be more interesting...only the Ground Combat and stars.ini pages have collided so far - I swallowed the existing stars.ini page whole into an amalgamated page. (note to self: add back links for each individual file description page)
