: 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]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 17:50, 3 July 2006 (EDT)

== box around each entry ==
Okay, here's another test.  This one puts a box around each wiki entry on the page, and also includes an edit link inside each box.  Here are some problems:
1.  If the wiki name has a space in it, it has to be written as an underscore instead.
2.  At first glance, it's not obvious that this page has more than one wiki on it.  We'll need some kind of message at the top, I think.
3.  This page is included in all of the categories for both of the pages that appear upon it.  Maybe that's okay.  Maybe not.
4.  The new template I created has a horrible name and will need to be moved if we decide to use this method.
Thoughts?  Opinons?  [[TedErnst]] | <small>[[User talk:TedErnst|talk]]</small> 18:19, 3 July 2006 (EDT)
