Revision as of 04:19, 4 October 2009
Protection
I think we may want to consider leaving the SRD (and Unearthed Arcana) unprotected. As long as we do something to watch all the pages under the SRD namespace, we can revert vandalism, but allow users to freely correct stuff. Maybe. --Aarnott 15:23, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
- I agree. Surgo 17:01, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
- On a similar note, what would the community think of adding photos to various SRD materials? Obviously pictures would not belong to the SRD, and yet I have lots of things sitting around that don't really fit much homebrew stuff, or I'd rather they be associated with good homebrew stuff, which was a bit few and far between on the other wiki. Anyway, I'm thinking the answer would be no due to legal whatevers, but if is should be different, I'd be interesting in knowing. We could also have people (say the rating committee/open it up to anyone) vote on a picture's quality/fit before it gets assigned to an article, maybe? -- Jota 04:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Credit Where Credit Is Due
Just another thought, given that Dmilewski transcribed most of (if not all of) the original SRD and MSRD, perhaps he should be given a little bit of credit (since we pretty much yoinked it from the old wiki--right?) here? I don't know if I've got all the facts straight, but it doesn't seem unreasonable. Maybe just a quick note or something? -- Jota 02:40, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
- Sounds fine to me. While we don't have to do it, it's certainly a nice thing to do. Surgo 02:42, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Link Craziness
A lot of the internal links within the SRD look like they were done by a bot, badly. For instance, from Mephit:
Mephits are minor creatures from the [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] planes.
All mephits appear as small, winged creatures with more or less [[SRD:Humanoid Type|humanoid]] features. While they are often described as impish, their [[SRD:Elemental Type|elemental]] origins are apparent at first glance.
