<center>'''Adding templates:''' We should add some templates to mark articles for e.g. deletion. You can see the reason for the need for templates if you have a look at the article about [[Beau Jolly]]. You can find examples for that kind of templates in the original wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_messages).:Hmmm I'm not really sure what you mean... the Beau Jolly This page is a harmless prank - at least I consider it so at this pointnow obsolete. If and when It has been superceded by the wiki gets bigger and to such a size that systematic patrolling is needed, then I think we can start putting some mechanisms into place... For now, just reading the changes and glancing at the pages is surely enough? [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 14:07, 7 August 2006 (CEST)::I meant the template signs of Wikipedia to simply add warning, etc. Here is an direct example of some different marks: http://enwww.wikipediacpcwiki.orgeu/wiki/Wikipedia:Template_messages/Disputes We don't need all signs, of course, but some to easily mark articles for deletion or for the need of an improvement would be nice (no automatic robots - just to mark the articles). --[[User:Octoate|Octoateforum dedicated forum]] 14:24, 7 August 2006 (CEST):::Ah, that's interesting now... I'll have to see how to implement them - unless you got some idea? [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 14:53, 7 August 2006 (CEST)::::I think they can just be added with copy & pasteso please go there!? --[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 15:06, 7 August 2006 (CEST):::::I made a test with the [[Beau Jolly]] article. Unfortunately you can't do simple copy & paste because of all the internal links in the Wikipedia templates. Maybe someone can improve it. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 16:57, 7 August 2006 (CEST):I would like to see templates for different categories of software ''e.g.'' games, demos, applications, like the information boxes one sees on Wikipedia for computer games - see [http:<//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spindizzy_(computer_game) Wikipedia's entry on ''Spindizzy''] as an example. The problem for me at the moment is that I don't know how to create complex tables and boxes in wiki markup at the moment! :-( [[User:Nich|Nich]] 17:31, 7 August 2006 (CEST)::I added the template for the game info boxes ([[Template:Infobox CVG]]), but currently the "parser functions" like #if: don't seem to work. --[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 18:44, 7 August 2006 (CEST)::Ok, I found the page which explains the installation of the "ParserFunctions" extension. It have to be installed to get the template working: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/ParserFunctions#Installation --[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 18:51, 7 August 2006 (CEST)----center>

'''Real names with == Forum ==Today the pseudonym?''' Shall we add [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/forum Forum] opened its gates. I felt it was necessary because the real names discussion system of the Wiki is not adequate... It is not meant to the scene-informations as we know it? Maybe replace every talk page, but it's very helpfull to add the real name to remember the persons. So in my case i will add "Kangaroo MusiQue (Thorsten Norman Mitschelegood for general discussion topics :). What do you think about that?

::Ah yes, you're right and I have noticed it myself - though I don''Moving t know why anyone would use some other theme, I think this is the search'best by far :D Anyhow, I'' field a bit more m just waiting to the top of the left menu will be nicemove servers, so its easier to search articles without scrolling aroundwhen this is done I'll look after such details.

:That would be nice - I think it should be higher, too. The problem :There is, this has to do with the skin, still 14 orphaned pages... and I'm not yet as comfortable with customising iti prefer using another theme because i use a browser without css support... if someone knows howAnd what is the difference between [[Applications]] and Utilities ?:::You are right, please step forwardI will move the Utilities to the Apps and mark them to be deleted! --[[User:GryzorOctoate|GryzorOctoate]] 1610:4813, 5 11 August 2006 (CEST)----

: That's a As I still don´t understand why we have two search windows I repeat the question if we really good idea need them both? ;- ) --[[User:Villain|Villain]] 17:08, 28 August 2006 (CEST):Yup. The second one (the top one) was added when the sidebar was so tall that the lower search field was out of the screen. Now the sidebar is too short, but it would be nice to be able to post source code herewill probably grow again....

: Indeed it's a nice idea, == Mainpage and I thought about it upon looking at the source code provided over at the Zone. Will add a link when I get back from work :) - [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 22:35, 3 July 2006 (CDT)Sidebar ==

Maybe its possible to make Regarding the main page, what's about redesigning it a list little bit in the way of all software-houses most other Wikis like Ocean, Alligata etc. Where we can add some nice informations about those companiesWikipedia?The main page shouldn't contain the complete site map. I like the style of Wikipedia much more. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 16:29, 29 August 2006 (CEST)

: You can actually add a link yourselfWell, I differ in my opinion with yours. If you go into The [[Games]] section you can add I don't like a link about [[Software Houses]] big sidebar and start addingprefer a good main page which can bring me directly to the different stuff in the Wiki, because you have much more room there to give a good entry point. Maybe Btw, I will add only use 1024x768 and I so I see it to till "Software-Programming" in the sidebar as well :(ok, will change if I get a new notebook someday ;) ). Anyway, I will join the majority =). -- [[User:GryzorOctoate|GryzorOctoate]] 2219:3554, 3 July 29 August 2006 (CDTCEST)

:::"Software-Programming" is your last visible entry? 8-O Maybe you choosed a font size of 300% and installed the Google, Yahoo and MSN toolbars at the same time? ;-)) My last entry is "Editing help", well, with 1280x1024. Ok, the sidebar could be still optimized, maybe we can move "About -contribute" to the end (it should be also mentioned on the start page) and remove "PD libraries" as an example (not so important for having an own entry point here IMHO). -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 20:26, 29 August 2006 (CEST)

Why does the crap keep getting posted :::: Here at the bottom of the main pagework I use 2560x1024, so there is no problem here... bloody spammers! Maybe I will use a smaller font size and buy some glasses for my notebook ;-) --[[User:ExecutionerOctoate|ExecutionerOctoate]]10:52, 30 August 2006 (CEST)

:Indeed... :The reason I have noticed your work (you always get to rolled it faster than me!), and back to a more expanded list (though I really thank you for that. This condensed the CPC models) is what you get for allowing posts without registeringthat, but I think if it's worth it continuing not like thisthat, at least for then surely there's no reason in having a whileSidebar? 8) Though I understand that on some resolutions (are you really on '''1024'''?? :D ) the entire SIdebar may not be visible, and see how I think that removing it goes... Thanks so altogether is muchworse than having one that doesn't show in its entirety! [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 02:16, 22 July 2006 (CDT)

:: Concerning the main page, now, it should not be the only launching page -the user should not need to get to the homepage in order to jump to a different category, hence the use of the Sidebar. On the other hand I find it '''much more useful''' as it is right now, than like it was before, though it can be improved somewhat ---I'll agree with Prodatron in that it looks somewhat 'dry' right now.[[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 20:05, 29 August 2006 (CEST)

Hi, if I add a JPG with the '|thumb' command, it doesn't show ::: Oh come on the page (e.g. [[CPC Schneider International]]wich BAST). What am I doing wrong? -(&" has modified the Sidebar again to that really useless and annoying list of unwanted links :-D Why dont use the mainpage AND the SEARCH to find content, instead of adding things wild, unorganized and useless to the sidebar?? [[User:OctoateKangaroo|OctoateKangaroo MusiQue of HJT]] 0121:0249, 5 29 August 2006 (CEST)

:I also think::: You and Octo have your mainpage, that the "thumb" feature is not working yetand Gryzor and me have our sidebar. Everyone is happy now :-P -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 0321:1858, 5 29 August 2006 (CEST)

: I'm having troubles with the permissions on the server. The Wiki needs the image folder to be chmod'ed to 777, but some of the subfolders do not have full access yet. I'm trying to chmod all of them, but how do I make sure that the newly created ones will be 777? :::: =) --[[User:GryzorOctoate|GryzorOctoate]] 0810:3852, 5 30 August 2006 (CEST)

::if you need help or Shell-Access on the server :: I think it´s useful to do chmod -r comands have some more things on dirsthe Sidebar than before. But now it´s too much... As Prodi already said PD libraries should be kicked out, just give me a call also clones and i will set it up for yousome others too. .. --[[User:KangarooVillain|Kangaroo MusiQue of HJTVillain]] 0921:2757, 5 29 August 2006 (CEST)

::::: It did it in this way and moved "contribute" to the end. Is it better now? Btw, how can I clear the cache? ----[[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 22:04, 29 August 2006 (CEST)

:::: The Bastard is me, I think it will be a good idea to do localisationwould guess. So i can add or translate Pages into germanAs I said, cause my english writing the reason for rolling it back is not that good as needed under the short form, there is simply NO NEED for the sidebar. The sidebar is there for the reader to be able to navigate quickly to all parts of the wikiwithout having to go to the main page. It is NOT useless, certainly NOT unwanted (Iuse it all the time instead of the main page links) and I doubt it'll do my best, but hey.. s annoying - the space is empty if you don't put links there are a few users around wich cannot write nor read english, so it will be a help for themgoes wasted. What do you The Main Page is NOT the place to put links on and is much harder to use than the sidebar. Unorganized? I wouldn't think about localisationso - the structure is quite ok right now, if anyone can think of ways to improve it, please do step forward. It's not even wild, since it has been tamed a lot since its first appearance, and definitely not unorganized - see the little boxes that organise it? :p [[User:KangarooGryzor|Kangaroo MusiQue of HJTGryzor]] 09:3149, 5 30 August 2006 (CEST)

:: I have was so free and reorganized the same opinion like Prodatron. It's much more work and both Wikis will be different. You can see an example for that situation on complete main page into the [http://usual "wikistyle".gp2x.org GP2X Wiki] and So the complete link list ("CPCWiki portal") has its own page now - we should improve this device has a much bigger userbasepage, that nearly all articels can be found there directly or indirectly. I guess Regarding the most common language should be used, so new main page maybe we should write greek.... aehm... english ;-)can add even more sections like "article of the month" or something like this. --[[User:OctoateProdatron|OctoateProdatron]] 1502:5740, 5 August 1 September 2006 (CEST)

: Great. I think this was discussed beforelike the new wikilike design.--[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 09:58, 1 September 2006 (CEST) ::I am pleased to hear that! We just need to take care about the up-to-dateness.As an example, every one, who is inserting a new entry in the news section should also update the main page. I'm not against content would also like to suggest and add some guidelines, which describe, what and how to add entries to the different sections in other languagesthe main page to prevent uncontrolled growth. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 16:24, but 1 September 2006 (CEST) ::: I like the new layout as well, it's meaningful and nicely put, although I think it can use a little cleaning over time :) I'm worried this will lead a bit confused as to lots of content being in Frenchhow news etc works, German or Spanishthough, hence it currently seems to be all over the place and it's difficult to maintain it for a limited audiencesomeone who doesn't know exactly how. So .. [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 20:37, 1 September 2006 (CEST):::: Regarding the news I was thinking that maybe it should will write a suggestion for the guidline how to insert new news. In general you have a headline, which have to be allowed as long as an english translation placed to the news (max 10 entries), the news archive (unlimited) and the main page (max 3 entries). The headline is providedthe article name where you write the news itself + links to the source and the category (month). In any case-- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 20:58, maybe we can allow it 1 September 2006 (CEST) == Main picture of the main page ==Gryzor, why have you modified the photo of the main page with the provision ancient one ? If this wiki is related to cpc, i guess it's not only the cpc 464 and the whole cpc range is concerned...Almost the 464 photo seemd truncated and overlayed by a line.

But if we see that no translations are done--[[User:Longshot|Longshot]] 13:17, then maybe 24 November 2006 (CET) : Well. I reverted it shouldnto the older version because I assumed there is something wrong with the image, that's all. For some reason the "range" photo won't continueappear, and I tried it fromt wo different computers and different browsers.Can you try reuploading the image under a new filename and changing the main page? Also, the 464 pic does appear fine for me - tried with Firefox, Opera, IE.As you can see it's not a matter of being 'unfair' - it's a technical issue, despite the fact that I like the 464 one better :):PS try to remember to log in before doing any changes. ... :) [[User:Gryzor|Gryzor]] 1619:3836, 5 August 24 November 2006 (CESTCET) :: Sorry for the misunderstanding. About the range photo it's strange because i dont think its clever 've any problem with ie or firefox (my personal pc) or crazy browser on my professional pc. This picture is a scan i'd modified in 2001 and coming from my site. I've compressed the picture with a newer version of image ready from 53kb to do it that way so it will be better 29.2 kb and i try to have only english as main languageupload it again under a new name.
