Well I don't know anything about the whole category setup...

Do you IRC? It's a good way to hash out some details...

Maybe we should stick to "SEWiki" instead of "SEW?" It is about as short.

Perhaps I will volunteer to make a logo or banner for the site? I haven't had a chance to do that for a while.

Fyron, we could do SEWiki. I only used SEW to shorten up the prefix for the SEW-related articles. SEIV prefix is for SEIV-related articles accordingly. I use SEWiki or SEW or Space Empires Wiki when referring to it, I really didn't think it made a difference.

Since you've done the hard chore of setting it up, you should have perrogative in giving it a name, so I think SEWiki should stay its official name if that's what you want. Does anyone else agree?

Currently the articles are created using prefix names so when you do a search for SEIV and guide you come up directly to the Space Empires IV Strategy Guide page.

Here is an example of the prefixes currently in use:

SEWocumentation Project
(page for discussing the project)

SEIV:Strategy Guide
(page for the comprehensive strategy guide)

Empires:Mentality
(page for my empire, The Mentality)

Link:Play By Web
(page discussing what PBW is and any subpages that could be created, like how-tos and so on, and contains the url)

etc...

Hmm... interesting. SEW for the URLs and SEWiki for the article texts, perhaps?

Kwok, that would be excellent.

Its not that big of a deal. Just note that "SEWiki" is in the title bar. Shorter URLs are generally better.

This is the sort of thing that can easily be hashed out on IRC.
