transclusion test

Mark, I really like this idea. I have modified it to use transclusion so that each wiki still has it's own page that can be linked to individually. One problem I see with that is that it's not all that easy to see *how* to edit either of these individually. Maybe we need a link somewhere? TedErnst | talk 12:41, 3 July 2006 (EDT)

Fantastico Ted!!! This looks great. I see your point about how to edit. Maybe we have a disambiguous statement at the top that points directly to each section? Not sure, but I like the direction! Great!!! The other thing that is a little kooky still are the titles... need to think about that..MarkDilley

Titles? One this page, the structured data shows both with the name "CommunityWiki". What's kooky? TedErnst | talk 16:22, 3 July 2006 (EDT)

Well it is kooky in terms of how you had done disambigous pages prior, that is all. For example, the wiki's are named differently, one is Community Wiki and the other is CommunityWiki - not much differnece, granted, but difference. Maybe not an issue. ;-) MarkDilley

Ok, I see now how you did it. templats.... hmmmm.... looks good, hard to edit, I understand your previous point now. MarkDilley

We have a couple of different issues that may be confusing each other. When I set up this disambiguation, I had CommunityWiki redirecting to Community Wiki. I recommend we do the same now. There is absolutely no reason to have those two pages be different from one another. So that's one issue. Another issue is the data from two different wikis living on the same WikiIndex page, the way you had done. I simply transcluded from both of the existing WikiIndex pages. I didn't create any new templates, but the action is exactly the same as using a template. The : before the pagename refers to the main namespace. And yes, it's difficult to get to the right place for editing. Remember how I wanted an "edit" button in the structured data box months and months ago? Sure would be handy now! :-) TedErnst | talk 17:50, 3 July 2006 (EDT)
