You know what we could do - automatically post wiki changes as posts into the forum.
http://www.biopowered.co.uk/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&feed=atom
That would be useful, surely?
-
Work slow again, tony?
-
Do you mean if i start a new page but dont finish it in one go it will get posted up as a change?
-
I think he does.
-
In that case i would be against it :) i sort of throw everything onto a page and then play about and sort it out at the end (or get help! ) not sure i would want everyone looking at one of my half finished attempts
-
So you'd be happy depriving everyone of a damned good laugh would you?
Don't forget the facility is already available on the wiki with the "recent changes" link.
-
Yes i would like to deprive you of a damn good laugh!
The recent changes button is slightly different to unread posts methinks

Completely confused ... unread posts!
-
Sorry thats the only button i use on here,like i only use todays posts on the vod.
What i mean is any alteration i do would instantly appear on there where as you have to go hunting for recent changes
-
Pretty much. Unlike you to be coy?
-
Its ok for you boffins that can knock a page up in your sleep,mine take ages and given the choice i would have mine totally invisible until im done ;D
-
Ahrr ... sensitive little sausage!
I'm sure Tony could knock you up you own little play area behind a modesty screen ... do they call them sand boxes (not being a boffin I wouldn't know)
Or you could do it this way ... write all the text in word, so it gets smell and gammer checked, then up load the photos leaving only the layout to play with. You can make it look like you know what you are doing by not saving, but previewing the page. That way you can make numerous changes with only one save of the finished page ... err, not that I do it that way, of course.
-
Sand box? i think a litter tray may be more apt
-
No that's a good point actually. WIP is rarely pretty and it's far better to save regular iterations than try (and potentially lose) a lot of work in one go. I guess for new pages there is nothing to stop proud creators broadcasting them in the forum the old fashioned manual way.

"Takes ages" ... (desperately need to use a laughing smiley, but I'm fighting the temptation) like over a year you mean? ;D ;D ;D :-X
MOD EDIT: MUST FOLLOW THROUGH IF SMILEYS ARE THREATENED
-
Now you've lost me?
You have followed through? that has a whole different meaning to me! and i suggest you visit the WC!

That's gross abuse of position. They weren't threatened, they were "needed". Completely different to anyone with a modicum of comprehension.

I have little more to say on the matter other than ... http://www.biopowered.co.uk/wiki/Plumbing_Fittings

We should print a "This page is Work In Progress and therefore may not be complete." for your extension Julian ;D
(Like I can talk, mine has been a work in progress since 2007)

It was his fault for teasing us with the possibility in the first place!
-
I'm quite used to people taking the hiss out of me but I'm struggling to work out who's doing it ... or is this a group effort?
-
The clues are there if you know where to look :-X
