This is a reminder from the Wiki Staff. Several of your edits on certain pages (mainly editing templates on pages such as [[Napoleon: Order of War]] and [[The Imperial House of Hader]] are unnecessary as they look fine as is and are in line with the rest of the templates on the wiki. If you wish to discuss template changes please contact one of the Wiki Staff and we will talk about it there. Please do not edit templates on pages without consultation.

:The first one was just adding of internal links.
 
:The second was to get rid of that bar at the edge, but seemingly didn't work. And that wasn't even a template.[[User:Meneth|~Meneth]] 11:02, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
:: The Edit to Napoleon has good and bad features which should be addressed individually [http://www.twcenter.net/w/index.php?title=Napoleon%3A_Order_of_War&action=historysubmit&diff=33679&oldid=33623] I've no idea what the width feature is meant to do (and suspect that no one else does either... as most of these originate from copies from Wikipedia etc...)  removing that didn't change the display of the template...  Adding the internal link to the Napoleon Total War page - which does already exist is a good idea.  Adding a dead internal link to 'Marshal Beale' where that page doesn't exist, but old link went to his forum profile, is not productive, unless Meneth is very imminently about to make a page for him....

Secondly, it has come to my attention that you are creating new pages just for the purpose of redirecting them to other pages. Two of these pages are [http://www.twcenter.net/w/index.php?title=Rome_Total_War&redirect=no] and [http://www.twcenter.net/w/index.php?title=House_of_Wilpuri&redirect=no]. These pages serve no purpose and are only using up resources. Please refrain from doing so in the future. These pages will be deleted.

:A large amount of pages write "Rome Total War" instead of "Rome: Total War", which was my reasoning for creating that redirect-page. It makes adding internal links easier.
 
:The second one was so that people can actually ''find'' the House of Wilpuri page. In it's current form it is hard to find unless one knows to search for "Category:House of Wilpuri", while with that redirect page in place one will find it immediately by just searching for "House of Wilpuri" [[User:Meneth|~Meneth]] 11:02, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
::Ref-the category thing... Simetrical did point out a while ago that content shouldn't really be placed on 'category' pages, for various reasons, inc, they are not included in initial search versions, and they are harder to link to (without accidentally putting the linked page into the category instead of linking out to it)....  Diversion from 'House of Wilpuri' to the Cat page if that is where the info is, does seem reasonable if it works -[[User:Makanyane|Makanyane]] 16:09, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
:::The reason AFAIK that The House of Wilpuri is located on a category-page is that having two separate pages would make little sense. The same has been done for both Civitate and Artifex pages, and both have redirects from the page to the category-page. Doing the same for The House of Wilpuri is therefore in accordance with precedence. [[User:Meneth|~Meneth]] 16:11, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
::::Yup - I was agreeing with your reasoning for adding the redirect.  As to the fact that the info is on the Category page, if we were all starting again we probably wouldn't do it that way, but it's not worth moving that or similar ones off now.[[User:Makanyane|Makanyane]] 16:28, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
:::::Didn't think you were disagreeing, was just clarifying my position a bit ;) [[User:Meneth|~Meneth]] 16:29, 3 January 2011 (MST)
 
 
Please do not add a category to the Main Page, there is no need as it is the main page. [[User:Ultimation|Ultimation]] 02:12, 4 January 2011 (MST)
