Entertainment footer
Hi there -- I'm working on a project for Wikia to help link the science-fiction wikis together, and encourage people to see this as one big site, rather than a lot of little wikis. I'd like to post this footer at the bottom of the main page.

The gaming wikis have started a similar project, and they've seen a lot more cross-traffic. Would it be okay to post this at the bottom of the main page here? You could also feel free to edit it, to fit in better with this community. -- Danny (talk ) 20:27, 17 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I don't see too much of a problem with the footer, I'd just suggest that maybe the Hitchhiker's Wiki also be included in the footer.
 * Also where exactly is it located (so it might be edited in the case that other members wish to)? Thanks. --Tangerineduel 12:45, 18 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, I didn't realize that the Hitchhiker's wiki was active again; that's cool. I added it to the footer, and also to the Entertainment hub. I moved a copy of the template here, so you guys can edit it -- it's at Template:Scififooter. Thanks! -- Danny (talk ) 12:17, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

More Help

 * Hi sorry help with categories needed. As I'm now using images from different sources (looking for best quality now), their filenames have got a bit confusing. How do I go about creating a gallery page with the images on, that I can refer to, to match up the appropriate images to reusable names.
 * I'm flumuxed how to create a new gallery page, and how to incorporate the category link on an existing page. Specifically Target novelisations / Target covers others/ Reference Books / Activity Books.
 * Also how best to link the novelisation (and script books) to the TV adventure page. Because it means revisiting each page I want to get this right first time so what to replace `= = Target Novelisation = to be added with would be good. I'll do it if you tell me how. Thanks again.The Librarian 12:33, 22 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm a little vague on precisely what you mean, but I'll give it a go and see if this helps.
 * You'll find the categories such as Category:Reference Books in Category:Real World, and so on and so forth. All galleries should really go in Category:Galleries first and foremost.
 * As for making subcategories, ie if you wanted a sub category of Category:Target Novels you'd just create/edit a page to have and then save the page so it becomes a red link, click on the red link which goes to the category edit page, then put  which will put the 'whatever stuff' page within the Target Novels category as a sub category.
 * As for images the best thing I can suggest (if you're replacing the images with better quality sources) is to directly replace them, by clicking on the Image and going to the Image's page, go down to File History and click on Upload a new version of this file which will directly replace that image with the one you're replacing which means you don't have to go through and re-do any links that had that link.
 * As far as galleries go you have created far more than I ever have (current number of galleries I have created is currently at 0), I would suggest any playing around needed should be done in the Sandbox. --Tangerineduel 13:08, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
 * As for the Novelistion pages I don't see anything wrong with the Novelisation heading on the Target pages, seems fine as a link goes.
 * If you mean the reverse of the Ie the TV story pages linking to the Novelisation pages I've just been doing this see Death to the Daleks. --Tangerineduel 13:13, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for that bit and especially the tv to novel links would have taken me ages thanks again. The above is helpful I'll see how I get on.The Librarian 18:24, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

New
Hi, sorry to bovver you, I can see that you're whizzing through the Target pages, but could you spare a minute to do an infobox for Activity books? Im sure its just changing the colour green on the reference one but I've just done Build the TARDIS, and I really think it should be separated somehow from other reference books, with a different colour. It just doesn't seem right somehow. Thanks The Librarian 13:46, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

I think it's fine. 'Reference Books' was just a title to make it different from everything else. It doesn't need a different colour, all the Novels have the same colour, in fact all the CDs also have the same colour. The colour difference is just to give a visual difference from the fiction books, which it does. The Activity books fall into the realm of 'Non-Fiction' (which incidentally was what the Reference Books infobox was called when I originally dreamed it up) Reference Books was a more general title. As I said I don't think it needs a colour change, it's got a category of its own, that's enough difference. --Tangerineduel 15:21, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

 * (Follows behind in a creepy fashion, crushing the apple cores and jelly babies) Processing....Your statement indicates that your previous comment of "Ummm...Right..." is in fact, a false statement. This would imply that your next statement may in fact be a truthful statement. --Colleyd 19:42, 30 October 2007 (UTC)Woof.
