Yes, but the progamers section isn't yet filled out enough yet to merit the sidebar link. That's next on the list after we get the strategy section to a satisfactory level.
We have a to-do list for this, so I deleted the article. Last edit: 2009-06-08 15:40:47 |

Um - I thought it was agreed we'd be using my photos for this. The Bisu and Luxury articles are using Fifo/Fomos work. |

argh! I've been going through articles fixing minor things, and I'm at a loss about what to do about punctuation. In build orders, it seems but that it would be frivolous to add periods behind every step, but then longer sentences have them. The style guide only says that proper punctuation should be used.
On another note, is there going to be a style guide for talk pages? The original wikipedia has little sections in them, which really helps in keeping it organized, rather than just having a wall of text.

| Hmm, currently I'm editing (creating?) some information in the units usage sections. At least until my boss figures out I'm editing Liquipedia instead of working! |

There is no talk page punctuation/style guide, as we haven't really figured out how to use it yet. We were kind of expecting one of a few things to happen:
1) talk pages work themselves out, and then suddenly everyone can use those to discuss things (community development)
2) the strategy section gets used to talk over the modern variations of the specific builds (at a high level hopefully). We haven't really figured out the interplay between the strategy section and liquipedia
3) people just make edits, and never use the talk pages. If the mods/admins see an edit war and/or get a PM about it, we protect/lock the page, and then pm chill/ver/oystein or start a strat forum thread about it.
One of the above will happen I think - everyone is just figuring it out. If you use wikipedia as an example, their talk pages tend to be disorganized as well (although to be fair, overall they're also covering slightly less technical topics). |

In the Zerg vs Terran page under the first branch I saw
Initial Build Order The initial build order listed here is the most common 9 Pool Build 9 - Overlord 9 - Spawning Pool 8 - Drone 9 - Extractor 8 - Drone 9 - Cancel Extractor @100% Spawning Pool - 6 Zerglings
Is this really the correct BO? Since if you Overpool the overlord usually finishes right after you've build the 9th drone after placing the Spawning Pool.

A) the talk/discussion pages are good for this B) uhhh..dunno about the correctness >.> Go ahead and fix it if you think that it should be fixed, and hopefully someone more knowledgeable about zerg than me will review it. |

General talk format (I think): --~~~~ shows your username, there's a button to add it
== Issue 1 == Point 1 --~~~~ :Reply 1 to Point 1 --~~~~ :Reply 2 to Point 1 --~~~~ Point 2 --~~~~ :Reply to Point 2 --~~~~ ::Reply to reply --~~~~ Point 3 --~~~~
== Issue 2 == etc

looks like there's a style guide for the talk pages hidden inside of help
Help:Discussion Pages
I've been using this for the discussion pages, it looks like it'll work out fine |

Can I add a section about lists to the style guide?
Right now the formatting of lists (of maps, of counters, etc.) is unclear, and it would be nice to have a solid thing to reference to, specifically periods at the ends of sentences. |

IRC channel #liquipedia
riptide, mikeymoo, and aesop are the point guys for the style stuff.
If you don't want to ask them on IRC, PM them - they'll be happy to help. |

A few things...
Unlocked Tech vs Upgrades Available These should be separate listings for buildings right? Some buildings have units that they unlock and upgrades that can be researched there listed together under Unlocked Tech. I think they should be separated out. The way I see it, Unlocked Tech should be units, buildings, and upgrades (at other buildings) unlocked by having this building. Upgrades Available should be all upgrades researched at this particular building.
Basic Upgrades Prerequisites Also, tech requirements for level 2+ upgrades for weapons and armor is mentioned for Protoss upgrades but are not for Zerg or Terran upgrades. Is mentioning tech requirements for this necessary? Regardless, I'd recommend removing that info from the infobox area since it adds clutter.
Units/Buildings Infobox Data ...should probably both be updated so they can display supply provided and attack data. Overlords don't display that they provide 8 control in the infobox and photon cannons and such don't display their attack data there either. |

Yes, yes, and yes. Fix what you can, and any infobox stuff we'll take a look at. Use the talk pages if you want to talk about specific articles. |

Roger that.
Wikia.com has a Starcraft wiki if anyone doesn't know already. I like how they show that an attack is which attack type by a single letter. This is probably the most elegant way of conveying damage type info. Writing the entire word "Explosive" or "Splash" in the infobox is too messy. See link below for example. http://starcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Siege_tank_(StarCraft) |
