Talk:Whatistheconspiracy

From TinWiki.org

This page looks an absolute mess, can the members of AboveTopSecret.Com who are editing and contribute to it please keep it a clear format. Thank You Fox 03:59, 1 August 2008 (CDT)

Willing to keep an eye on it

I'm willing to keep an eye on this page, but I a) have no wiki experience and b) am brand new to ATS and not familiar with the etiquette here yet. *Please* let me know if I do something inappropriate so I can fix it promptly. Thank you --americandingbat 21:59, 3 August 2008 (CDT)

I would love to know if there's a way to use a small version of an image on the page as a link to a larger version elsewhere? --americandingbat 00:15, 4 August 2008 (CDT)

Talking to myself is a bad sign. I'm wondering if the word "Clues" should be replaced with something else, and if it should be made clear that this is the pregame game.--74.65.222.184 02:54, 4 August 2008 (CDT)I

I haven't really been following the game, but I want to say thank you. Especially for figuring out how to post an image as a thumbnail. That is really great. I will comment though that perhaps you should move this page to one that says pre-game in the title, and then use this title when the game starts. Or not, it is entirely up to you. Another comment I would like to make is that perhaps if you create a new page for the game when it officially starts, you put spaces in between the words so that it reads: Game: What is the conspiracy, rather than Game:whatistheconspiracy.

Americandingbat, you can keep an eye on it if you wish. But it need some massive work doing to it. So if you think you can keep up...show us... Fox 12:33, 4 August 2008 (CDT)

Fox, I will do my best. And thank you for whipping it into some sort of workable shape before I got my hands on it. --americandingbat 21:59, 4 August 2008 (CDT)

William One Sac, I've been thinking about the renaming issues, too. At the moment I'm inclined to leave things as they are. I think probably the name Game:whatistheconspiracy was picked to stay in the same format as Game:Alltheufoanswers and I generally like to stick with precedent. I'm going to try tonight to rename/reformat sections so that everything up to today is more clearly "pregame". --americandingbat 22:04, 4 August 2008 (CDT)

Formatting and Content Open Questions

  • Should we be crediting individual members with solves? If so, we need a consistent format (eg: first mention gets boldface, after that it's plaintext; or always in italics; whatever, just not the mishmash that's here now).--americandingbat 23:20, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
  • I'd love suggestions on how to format the solutions to the puzzles so that they can be easily found but don't clutter up the page too badly,--americandingbat 23:52, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
  • How does this sound: the pregame info stays here until the eighth, at which point I will write up a brief summary to leave here and move the bulk of the page (including images etc) to another page (Pregame:whatistheconspiracy maybe, or Game:whatistheconspiracywarmup)?--americandingbat 23:52, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
  • I removed all references to "The God Game" which turned out to be completely unrelated.--americandingbat 15:18, 22 August 2008 (CDT)
