Default Added a couple of Wiki pages

Just a quick FYI to anyone interested.

I just recently added a couple of Race pages to our favorite Wiki site. They are as follows:

the Drow - A dark elven race from Dungeons & Dragons.

the Skorr - An avian race from the Star Trek animated series.

the Tellarites - A porcine race from Star Trek.

the Wookiees - A Sasquatch-like race from Star Wars.


I'd also like to add a special thanx to Atrocities and Dogscoff for their advice and assistance, respectively, with this.

I'm kinda disappointed ~ There's been 50+ views and not a single comment, thought, or opinion..... [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img]

Ahh, it's a thankless task, wikiing. Just keep plugging away, and eventually people will start to realise just how cool the wiki is. Once it hits a certain 'critical mass' (where people can go on there and reasonably expect to find the informationthey are looking for) then it wil really start to take off, and that's when ppl will properly appreciate those that have contributed.

I've added the text in the Facilities article to the top of the Facilities category too. I've included the stub tag. If you want to expand the article proper or the cat description, well don't let me stop you; but let's confine the long stories about how facilities evolved from SE II to III to IV and all that to the article, and keep the cat description concise, shall we? I know of a wiki where some cat pages are "graced" by endless stories of in-depth information, and it's not that I have an aversion to it, but I think it'd be better to keep the cat pages clean

I just copied the text from the Facilities article to the Facilities category description.

If you want to add info, fine, but let's keep the category description short, containing only the basic info, OK? Save the long stories - i.e. how facilities changed throughout the series, and that kind of stuff - for the Facilities article proper.

I know a wiki where category descriptions can reach well into two pages in Word, and it might be pretty, but it's not what a category description is there for. Long stories, that's what articled are for; short, concise descriptions, that's what category descriptions are for.

When I posted my last post, I was somewhat drowsy and exhausted from a long day at school. I wasn't really typing clearly; I hope this cleared some things up.
