Template:WikiProject Template:TOCright This project aims to add size categorization to WikiIndex. This page is where we'll develop the internal categorization scheme, as well as where we'll share what we know about how to get size information from wikis running on various engines. Please jump in and help!

Size categories are being renamed

According to the discussion contribution of user:69.87.199.67, I think, we should establish a way for auto-categorisation of size in certain way(s):

  • Wiki with 201 to 500 pages

by typing

pages = 349 (in our Size template)

in the Template:Size, the date can be obtained by

{{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} // (20241218115619) [1]

or similar (year-month-day). Using the parser funcions extension #if or #switch, size and size categorization time could be auto-categorized for maintainance. --Wolf | talk 14:11, 21 February 2007 (PST)

Categorization scheme

We now have a new mechanism of categorization of wikis by size. The size template has a new parameter – pages – that should be used to set the page count, the 'wiki_size' parameter is now obsolete. The size categories are moving now, the old will be transformed into redirects (in the following list, I strike out categories that I've already emptied):

Category:Wiki Size (old style)Category:Wiki Size

"size classes"

The size classes are for better orientation against zero-blindness.

L
Large
M
Medium
S
Small
U
Unknown

According to the following size-class-independend ordering scheme, the size classes can be changed easily.

subcategory ordering scheme

category name format
"Wiki with " + lower_bound_page_count + " to " + upper_bound_page_count + " pages"
category order
(digits of lower_bound_page_count -1) × "0" + letter
where letter depends on the most significant digit of lower_bound_page_count
  • A if most this digit is 5
  • B if most this digit is 2
  • C if most this digit is 1

Templates

Size data

We now have Template:Size. Its draft boilerplate is on its talk page. Please add it to the bottom of a couple wiki entry pages to see if it works. We still need to figure out the categorization issues. TedErnst | talk 12:22, 9 Mar 2006 (EST)

Size navigation

For navigation, the template:Wiki size navigation has been developed.

How to get size information

See the instructions at Template:Size.
