I thought that when we add direct quotation from the books that we might highlight them to indicate that they are quotations. This might be a good use for those highlighters. =====Comments= ===Character-Template= DougCreller has suggested this: Can we make a template or come up with a standardization for charactor entries. A kind of fill in the blank form #name #race (Man, Elf, Dwarf, Ainur, Hobbit, etc) #date of birth and death #Family relationships (Mother, Father, Sister, Brother) #affilations (Country, Group, Ranks or Titles) #their story (Who they are and what they did.) this should help make for easier use when we near the end I also suggest that as you make your entries try to remember to run through the spell checker. I think I have been using it right (make sure you spelled it right in the first place and don't add words that are not spelt right -- Doug =====Comments= This is a good idea, Doug. Except for the birth- and death-dates I have tried to give all those informations on the pages I "completed" so far (Which are unfortunately very few). What I am not yet sure about is, whether this should be some "form" or just a "guideline" - like the one you just gave. -- Walter ===Background= [[image] http://wikiservice.at/upload/WalterCharzewski/bg_mike.jpg [Text=MikeB has suggested a new background, which looks very good. But if we change the background color, we needed to change the color of the logo-text as well as the link- colours and the title background for a consistent site layout ]] ====Comments= Sorry, but my opinion is that Tolkien pages have to be green. Why are most of his books in an green paperback? I think only the color [[font][color=green]green] suits to tolkien topics. --- ChrisC IMHO the texture looks better than the texture of the current "marble" background, but I would also - like Chris - prefer to keep green as the main color. -- HelmutLeitner [[image] http://wikiservice.at/upload/WalterCharzewski/bg_test.jpg [Text=What I did not know by the time Mike sent me his image was, that this is a standard background image of W2k and/or WXP. I agree that green should be the color of choice for a Tolkien-related site, maybe a background image that resembles a blurred vision of a wood from a greater distance would fit nicely? -- Walter ]] [[red]Just so long as it doesn't burn the eyes.] -- DougCreller
