spam filter

If you get blocked by the spam filter, please contact me! Be sure to include your IP address so I can unblock you. I need to type up some guidelines for avoiding the filter, and the filter itself needs a CAPTCHA-based unblocker.

Editing

This page is in need of updating. Need some basic wiki-editing instructions here.

Templates

didn't I already create a page or section about templates somewhere? -W.

Various conditions under which the complete text of an external article might be posted in Issuepedia:

News Sources

Places to find current news, especially items not generally covered by the mainstream press

Mainstream Media

...just so you know who.

(others to be listed)

Technical Stuff

This is just a page listing for now; eventually there should be how-to guides.

  • forms: category -- includes templates for handling form data
  • code (mostly W3TPL):
    • lib: code libraries
      • links: code for handling link pages
      • util: general utility functions
    • show: routines for displaying stuff (also tend to do stuff when you include them, minimizing need for additional code, vs. requiring a function call)
      • link: displays a link page in a human-readable format
