:Another tip: Have you ever found a page that all messed up and you could not figure out what was wrong? Try this. Put one section at a time of the problem page on a sandbox page and save it. If that part seems ok, add another section. You should soon find the problem section. You now have a smaller area of code to look at rather than trying to figure out the problem on the whole page. | |||

'''Guiseppe Martinengo''' We are creating Wiki city pages for a country following a pattern similar to that used for the the county pages in the US. | |||
Currently, in the US we do not use a template that includes the information of the entire page, even if there are many specific templates inside the page. Do you think that to create a template (for this other country) that includes all the main topics in the page, at least for pages with less information, would be a mistake? | |||

Wanted Pages overview: 27,000 + red links are in the Wiki. Using Excel, these are being analyzed for: | |||
#Source of the red links | |||
#Does the info already exist in the Wiki? | |||
#Set priorities | |||
#Projects/assignments. In some cases, the link may need to be renamed or removed from several pages | |||
#Increase awareness. | |||
##Can also notify moderators, adopters, contributors | |||
Some examples: | |||
*[[Search the courts of the surrounding parishes]] (425 links) and [[Diocese of Not Applicable]] (427 links) These came from the [[Ramshope, Northumberland|Infobox]] posted on many parishes. | |||
**The pages are needed, per Steve Cotrell | |||
**Options: | |||
***Create the page and explain more deeply. This explanation is needed, since the page name is confusing | |||
***Train several people to unlink the explanation and create a "Learn More" link (which would be clearer, but definitely requires a lot of Wiki work.) | |||
*Several are town pages wanted in the US: | |||
**A project can be to identify if this is a county seat and if not, remove the link (but not the town name) | |||
**There are a LOT of "wanted" town pages in the 27000 that have been downloaded. Excel will help us identify them (show entry 319) | |||
