Talk:Tree
From Feed The Beast Wiki
This is my first talk page, so I apologize if I mess up. I noticed that there is another page called Category:Tree, which has almost no information. I got there from a link at the bottom of the Magic tree page. It seems like these two pages should be combined somehow. My username is JonathanHopeThisIsUnique (I remember reading something about timestamps but I forgot how to use them.)
- Category pages are separate from regular articles, they contain mostly just lists of related articles on a topic. They're used as a different way to navigate the information included in the wiki. Every article should be included in at least one category, by adding
[[Category:<Cat. Name>]]
at the bottom of the page, or by using a template that automatically categorizes it. And to sign talk comments, use~~~~

They are not really intended to provide much information on a topic (Category:Ore is pretty typical). They simply allow all tree or ore articles to be found easily. You can add Categories to a page simply by adding a link to the category at the bottom of the page (I.e. [[Category:Ore]]) Also, use ~~~~ to sign your posts on talk pages. ;-) Celestial Oblivion (talk) 20:35, 23 December 2013 (CET)
- ^ This. It's usually a good idea to e. g. link to Tree from Category:Tree, and to categorize Tree as the first page in Category:Tree (by adding
[[Category:Tree| ]]
to it). --dgelessus (talk · contribs) 22:12, 23 December 2013 (CET)
