Sennadar Forums

[s]All hail Spec8472![/s] We have now Sennadar Wiki for gathering all the information related to works of James Galloway (Fel), like Guide to Magic, Definitions or Books Timelines. For those who didn't know that, the Wiki engine (MediaWiki, the same as in Wikipedia) allows anyone (registered) to edit/correct/add content.

Future discussion about specific Sennadar Wiki pages should be done using Wiki's Talk feature, which allows discussion about the wiki pages.

TO DO list:

• [s]Move Lochar's "Sennadar Compendium" to Wiki.[/s] DONE. Thanks Lochar.
• Fill in Error List. [s]Spec8472 is working on it.[/s]
  Spec8472 filled it from Sennadar Forum threads, and locked the threads. Thanks.
• Agree on format for the timelines and [s]move MommyDoom Timelines to Wiki[/s].
  [s]I've put Timeline for first book in Wiki, with MommyDoom permission.[/s].
  All the MommyDoom Timelines copied to Wiki. Now we will have to complete it (some of Timelines are sparse, Timeline for "Axe of the Dwarven King" unfinished, Timeline for "Sword of Fire" (and "Demon's Bane") to be created
• Anything else?

<hr>Original information about starting Sennadar Wiki can be found in "Migration to New Board Software" thread.

Edited by Spec8472: Why the "All Hail?", and edited the topic - hopefully more informative.
Edited by Shadowhawk: "All Hail" in thanks for creating and hosting the Sennadar Wiki, and for contributions there. Thanks, the new topic title is better.
Edited by Shadowhawk: Changed link to article with the idea of starting Wiki to the phpBB format. Poll added.

ShadowHawk:
Not sure if we can do the EasyTimeline thing, still having troubles with my host -- the whole 'extra binaries on the webserver = security problem' issue might put it off.

Otherwise, the Wiki is looking good, thanks for fixing the stuff that I'd broken



Edit:
Another thing to move over would be the "Error List" (inconsistencies, misspellings, etc) for the books.

And a Glossary of terms too, perhaps. (Perhaps the Wiki can do this already?)

I don't think that we have to have EasyTimeline extension. It would be nice touch, but it isn't really necessary.

There is definition list markup in MediaWiki, which can be used to create glossary. See for example Wikipedia Glossary. (We would have to copy some templates used to Sennadar Wiki).

<hr>[s]I see that Contributions Guidelines should be changed[/s] - see my thoughts on that matter. Working on it.

[s]What about enabling uploads? Do you want to do that?[/s]. Works. Thanks Spec8472.

[s]What do you think, should Sennadar Wiki be added here or there  to list of projects that are using MediaWiki[/s]? Done by Spec8472 (William Hughes).
And maybe at SwitchWiki as well? There are some problems with that site now, 01.06.2005

Do any of you have something against copying relevant portions of their messages here, on Sennadar Forum, to Sennadar Wiki, to become compendium on all FelBooks matters? Of course we give proper attributions (i.e. put down author(s) of given information).

Added some new pages.

Someone else gets to Wikify them, as I know |l much about doing that.  *grin*

Wikified and Categorised some pages -- whee, fun

I'm sure Shadowhawk will pull me up if I'm doing something wrong and messing up his wiki

LOL.  You're not done yet.  Everytime you Wikified a page, I created a new one.  LOL

I have request for all Sennadar Wiki contributors: please do fill in Edit summary - it really helps.

Thanks in advance.

I have a list of about a hundred errors I spotted when I went through books 1-7 looking for them. Some (if not most) have already been spotted and pointed out by others, but I did the list at home and didn't have other references, so I listed all I could save a few I could remember others pointing out.

I've been meaning to post it to the Q&A board for two months now. (Could you imagine what a hundred separate entries would do for my total entries counter? That's if I didn't get banned for crossing some automated anti-spam setting.) I have it as a text file at home. I'll try to get it to a net-connected computer sometime soon. Could I have an email address for whomever chooses to take care of it?

Additional notation- I'm leaving for California to visit family this coming Tuesday. I *might* make it to the library Monday, but it's chancy. Once traveling I'll have to beg family for net time, so I'm not sure when I'll actually be able to email the file. If whomever chooses to deal with it doesn't want to leave an address on the board, contact me at markreed3000. It's a yahoo.com address (and yes, I'm trying to break that up to avoid bots).

By the way Fel, Chapter one of Demon's Bane rocked!

I'm entering Mark Reed error list to Sennadar/Error List at Sennadar Wiki.

Original can be found (when there is image before URL) as Felbook Errors.txt (104k) at my site.

Mein Gott!

LOL.  That's a huge list.

It's mainly composed of quotes, though. I'm putting it on Sennadar Wiki much thinned out, without most quotes.

Alright, Wiki's been updated some more. Of course, I have no idea on how to wikify without a baseline to work with, so that's left up to the more wiki-savvy of the group.

Enjoy!

Contribution Guidelines: Formatting article on Sennadar Wiki should help.

But that would actually be work!
