:::::::::Fantastic! I'll get on with those buttons ;) Does anyone have an .svg fleur de lis? It would be a bit easier than the huge on they have on Scoutbase. [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 19:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
''reset'' Theres probably one on [http://media.scoutwiki.org ScoutMedia], and if so it works like Wikimedia Commons, so no need to upload it here! If you need help with the system, let me know - a lot is protected as it's fairly complicated! | |||
Thanks, | |||

:Found one! I'll get on with those buttons, then we can really get the Database out there. [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 19:55, 1 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::Here's the first! It's very simple but it should work, I'll let some better skilled Photoshoppers/GIMPers get some new ones in. It's Open Source, of course: [[Image:Button1.png|center]] | |||
:::I'm affraid this image is not OpenSource, as it is WOSM's logo plus a bit of text … Then it's violating the WOSM's copyright. There are also lots of scout groups that are not WOSM, think to WAGGGS-only groups and groups members of other organizations such as WFIS or UIGSE. | |||
:::Concerning the namespace, what's the difference between a group page and an other page ? If you create a group: namespace, then you should create a knot: namespace, a person: namespace, etc … Moreover, it's complicating search (group: ns wouldn't be included in the default search) and group pages wouldn't be counted in the number of articles. Namespaces are useful only for pages which are not articles. | |||
:::BTW : [[template:imagelink]] has been fixed [[image:face-wink.svg|20px]] [[User:Akela NDE|Akela]] - <small>[[Special:Emailuser/Akela NDE|yaw]] [[:fr:Discussion utilisateur:Akela NDE|yaoooo !]]</small> 13:15, 2 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::::Hmm... i'll work on another - I was gonna revamp it a bit on Photoshop anyhoo. | |||
::::Namespaces: It is possible to put it in the default search - there's a MW hack - but I suppose you're right. How we have it now using a psuedo-namespace is working fine. While were on the subject though, can we '''''PLEASE''''' have Project: removed, as it's screwing up the MediaWiki software, and change it to Workforce:. Please? | |||
::::Thanks, | |||

:::::Wahey we have new Groups in ;) Glad to see the button on the front page! | |||
:::::Akela, I thought the Arrowpoint was unprotected? <small>Hey, do I get sysop for my brilliant idea? ;)</small> [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 16:39, 2 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
''reset'' Here's a userbox for those enthusiastic about the DB! | |||
<center>{{ScoutWiki/DBMaintain}}</center> [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 17:14, 2 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
:Love it! I'll get documenting the rest of our Userboxen! I think the Fleur de Lys itself isn't protected, which is the "arrow" you refer to, but the badge may well be. It should however not really be copyrighted, as it's using generic things - a Trademark however it may be! I'll dig some more. | |||
:Sysopship? I have no idea. Certainly a barnstar once I get one made! '''<font face="Verdana">[[User:Bluegoblin7|<font color="blue">BG</font>]][[User_talk:Bluegoblin7|<font color="gray">7</font>]]</font>''' 12:27, 3 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::Ahhh so that's how you spell Fleur de Lys... [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 15:15, 3 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::[http://digg.com/world_news/International_Scout_Guide_Group_Database_Launched Digg it!] [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 15:39, 3 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::Good idea to digg it, Joe [[image:face-smile.svg|25px]]. | |||
:::Concerning the WOSM fleur de lys <small>(that's French for "lily flower")</small>, I'm afraid it is definitely under copyright of the WOSM and the WOSM doesn't want it to be used on stuff that's not related to it. On French ScoutWiki we used it as a logo for our scouting organizations' portal, and we were asked to remove it. | |||
:::You will be pleased, I hope, to know that I improved the Necker Generator (now called "''NeckGen''"), a big bug has been removed, the interface has been slightly improved (it's now OK with IE!), and the import on ScoutMedia is now automatic so you just have to press the button and copy-paste the name to display the necker. The url has been changed, too : now it is http://www.scoutwiki.org/neckgen . (I will place a redirection on the former url, but still). | |||
:::Have fun and tell me if you have problems with NeckGen. [[User:Akela NDE|Akela]] - <small>[[Special:Emailuser/Akela NDE|yaw]] [[:fr:Discussion utilisateur:Akela NDE|yaoooo !]]</small> 23:32, 3 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
:::Ah and oh, yes, namespace Project has been changed to Workforce as requested. [[User:Akela NDE|Akela]] - <small>[[Special:Emailuser/Akela NDE|yaw]] [[:fr:Discussion utilisateur:Akela NDE|yaoooo !]]</small> 00:02, 4 June 2008 (UTC) | |||
::::Hey Akela. | |||
::::No problems at all - could you possibly add to it though, under stripe, a double stripe? As in my groups knecker? It's black background, with a red and white double stripe.

(And del.icio.us. later) | |||
:::::@Akela, I think we all need to abandon IE support for everything so everyone uses Firefox. Also, there's quite a bad bug in NeckGen, I keep the default necker, but click Bordered then click back to Default, the boxes used in Bordered will still be there. By click each necker type you can have all of the boxes. Need a hideDiv() in there or whatever it is (I haven't used JS for a while) [[User:J.Davison|J.Davison]] 14:02, 6 June 2008 (UTC) | |||

==Ugly frontpage== | |||
'''Current main page is terrible!''' I suppose it is meant for an active wiki but because this is not - it makes this site look like "forever under construction". I made an option [[Main_Page/Sandbox]] which is much simplified and hopefully attracs more users. Can somebody switch it to official main page? [[User:Paula|Paula]] 17:38, 29 November 2009 (UTC) | |||
:I agree! I have put your suggestion on the camp fire site, and on two user pages of people from who I think have access to the front page. [[User:Sietske|Sietske]] 08:28, 7 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
::[http://en.scoutwiki.org/index.php?title=Special%3AListUsers&username=&group=sysop&limit=50] these people have access to the front page. --[[User:Egel|Egel]] 09:07, 7 December 2009 (UTC) | |||
