Hey Thomcat, a nice project you have going here. I will categorize my previous and future ones (you did two for me!). I'm probably just lazy, but I find creating a new expedition page really time consuming. Is anyone working on a page generator? It would save us all time, and guarantee properly constructed and categorized pages. Juventas 02:53, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
- I don't know of an auto-expedition-generator, but it would be a good app. Not sure if it can both create the page AND post into the contents of the page. Wiki research is in order... --Thomcat 03:18, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
- Nope, I had never have seen that page until now. :( I see it was added to the "Help" sometime after I was first here figuring this stuff out. I tried it as a preview, but I guess you can't see the editable page until after it's published.
