wiki popups
would it be possible to install this editing tool -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Tools/Navigation_popups ? that would be hot. –xenocidic (talk) 22:58, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
I use that one on Wikipedia all the time. I'll try to get it installed here in the next few days (probably before the weekend is over). --Jimmcq 23:30, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
While you're making changes, do you think we could add a purge tab to the page actions? --FeralKitty 01:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
I'll look into it, but you can always purge by adding &action=purge to the query string URL. --Jimmcq 01:57, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- WP's clock gadget, when clicked, will purge the page contents. –xenocidic (talk) 02:28, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
AWB
You think AWB would work here?
The wiki must support the Bot API required by AWB. This means that it should have latest HEAD version of MediaWiki or something close to that. [1]

what about seperate namespaces?
- VPC = VPC:Redhott (Classic)
- TIP = TIP:Redhott (Trouble in Paradise)
- JFF = JFF:Redhott (Just for Fun)
- VPP = VPP:Redhott (Pocket Paradise)
- TV = TV:Redhott (Television series)
- VP = VP:Redhott (Common content that may be transcluded onto any or all of the other pages - i.e. description of species)
The main page, being Redhott now uses the same layout it does now but transcludes the content from each of the namespaces.
With some CSS settings for the namespaces it should make things a lot easier.
it will also allow people to focus on their particular platform(s) by only seeing the changes on their watchlist for the platforms they are interested in.
let me know what you guys think. –xenocidic (talk) 23:32, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
