Template talk:Wikipedia

Why are we suddenly linking to "more information"? We are an independent party. 19:48, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * To provide the reader(s) with information that we can't/won't/neglect to cover. 19:52, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * Um I'm not sure but is coping stuff from other wikis or wikia is consides vandalism right?
 * In an article. For template or purposes such as that, it's generally to better our wiki's capabilities. Take the new navigation template style for instance; we took that style from Wikipedia, but it betters our wiki by making navigation templates neater, easier to use, and more aesthetically pleasing. 19:56, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * Still though, what will this do? Just create some page links to wikipedia pages of stuff?
 * Oh. . . But I thought all Wikia and Wikis have the template thing program into the site. Ambidextria
 * S-Y: Yes. Articles like Banjo will link to Wikipedia for more information. It's just like the "External Links" or "References" section of a page, only it allows the reader to access Wikipedia (perhaps our most-used source of information) easier. Grapes: No, it depends on what version of MediaWiki a wiki is running on. Wikipedia has top-of-the-line syntax capabilities, because it has virtually every extension possible installed. We have quite a few extensions installed, but we are still missing some. 20:03, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * Oh alrite then, sounds pretty neat.
 * It still feels like we're bowing to Wikipedia for more information. :/ 20:07, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * Hmm I guess this wiki is missing the new template Stumpers is trying to make. -> See Talk:Main Page Stumpers said there was an error with it. Talk:Main Page
 * Nevermind Y-S fixed it. Ambidextria

Oh, you guys... this is why I asked first on the main page! Thanks for your help! 20:20, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * No problem at all!
 * A lot of that coding was completely unnecessary for this site. I took it out and replaced it with what we would need; now that pesky link isn't floating on the left. 20:45, 11 November 2008 (EST)
 * Alrite, so now the question is how and where to put it on an article.
