User talk:Zarevak/Logos

This is a great list! I'd love to see it attached to the main wiki. I'm curious, though, why are there two columns of logo images? Squeg 00:12, 8 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thank you ;-) There are two columns for now, because I need to reupload the logos images under the new name containing the (logos) part. You can use User:Zarevak/Logos/list as it also includes link to missions associated with each symbol and have only one icon.
 * There is one problem with the list I'd like to solve: For now the data for the list are separated from Logos articles and when someone updates the article, this list becomes outdated. And vice versa, when someone updates this list and forgets to update the Logos symbol article. I'm trying to find out some solution for this and then I can move this to main wiki with clear conscience. If you have any ideas how to accomplish it, please let me know.
 * Current ideas are:
 * Creating /data subarticles for each Logos article with data for inclusion on the Logos article or to this list. This solution is easier to implement, but is harder for the users to understand and use.
 * Changing the logos articles for them to be able to be included to other pages as data sources. This solution is harder to implement and needs some more thinking... On the other side when done correctly in should be easy for the users to update the Logos articles as necessary.

 * We can essentially get both at once. We want a solution that does not require any modification to the main article body, this is possible by adding a separate   section to the article. This defines the include behavior, without interfering with the rest of the article, and it remains discoverable since it's in the same edit space. We could set up a template (or subst pattern) to make it even easier. - Dashiva 00:51, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
