: ''Okay, cool. Alright. Let's say I'm a new person and I come here and I see that my wiki isn't here. I use John's add a wiki button, the default brings in the structured data, I fill out the form, and we're done, yes? Cool, so far this has nothing to do with the add template, right? Just trying to make sure we're still on the same page. Okay, so with new person adding one wiki, no need to add template, the person does their own structured data. Cool. Now, scenario #2. You, Ray or I find a new wiki or 10 and don't have time or inclination to actually fill in the structured data. We just put the URL in and the add template and we're done. Someone else looking through categories wikis to add sees these wikis need structured data and tehy add it. Cool, right? On the other hand, if the blank (unknowns) structured data is attached to the add template, you or ray or I adds a URL and project unknowns gets stuck with a bunch of new unknowns. So what am I missing? Help me see the benefits? Thanks! [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 02:20, 22 May 2006 (EDT) | : ''Okay, cool. Alright.

Ok, so I add a new wiki through Johns magic wizard. We are ignoring that category first, and second, though they seem similar to me. The template has the add template. I find that useful for two reasons: 1) it has the [[StructuredData]] link on it, I think this may help people while they fill in their page. (much the way we thought category first/second would, and why I pushed for a tag in the form) 2) It adds the page to category wikis to add for folks who are working on those tasks. I am unclear why it is a problem from the view point of category unknown and category first/second. Similar to your questions: what am I missing? Help me see the benefits/problems? | |||
