Re: Wiki Returns and more updates

[Saleem]

It went online as said. No one really contributed to it. Link went down a bit ago but I'll bring it back with another request to the 'veterans' of the community who have knowledge, to spread that into the wiki for rookies to learn each season


UPDATE: I fixed the Wiki upgrade and it is now available once again. Please see the "BTF Wiki" link above. CTL (Competitions and Teams Listings) is also there.

Other updates from the past few days:

- iphone (and other mobile phone) skin returns
- better spam protection at registration, using reCAPTCHA
- detailed karma description, so you can see who gave you karma, and for what

We'll set up another push to get this done eh Saleem? Have all the pages and sub topics listed out already so people can just post information. Or even have people post the link to the topic and we can get dedicated people to farm the links and put the information up.

Just feels like having people make pages is the biggest part. If the backbone organization is in place I think people might be bored and just post information or find links with the information...

Another idea... form a group. Ask people you guys believe have good knowledge/information to contribute, and formely ask them to get involved in its development. Others can ALSO add, but this way, you have a guaranteed source of material. I'd say the BTF's are a good place to start, as are common judges, team captains, and Bhangra O.G.'s lol.

Wiki is online. Basim I think that could be a good idea (like to replace the Main Page)

yo why doesn't my BTF look like that...mine looks less...nice. The bar with the BTF wiki and etc isn't there on mine..its just links

I'm working again on the Wiki. Yesterday I re-did several things, not sure if anyone noticed yet:

- iphone (and other mobile phone) skin
- better spam protection at registration, using reCAPTCHA
- detailed karma description, so you can see who gave you karma, and for what

When you click the +1 to give someone karma, it now requires a description/reason. To the left, you'll see the word "Karma:" is a link-- it goes to that person's karma log, and shows who gave them karma, where, and what for. The front-page of BTF also shows the most-recent karma given, though that's just something I've put there temporarily I think.

 

[bballkid2592]

so is there any access to the Wiki yet? Im mad lost..haha my b people

 

[Saleem]

There are some issues since I upgraded it. When I have it ready I will let you know. And perhaps now in the summer, people are bored and will actually contribute to it. Its funny that the link to it sat active for months with no one clicking it or contributing, and now that it's gone for a bit everyone's like omg wiki

I wanted to know more about phumaniyaan and was hoping to find info there instead of looking for old threads and saw it was gone.. I was bummed... Are you going to recompose the costume tricks and tips thread there too? That's a great thread!

[Saleem]

You can now also Google Search BTF. See the top right at the search field, you have the option of "Default" and "Google". Done! (PS - Yes, I'm looking into changing google to be the default)
