Front Page links for RP sections and Alien Life Cycle

Post by DrHurts » 23 Sep 2016, 12:20

The bullet pointed Marines section of the front page should add a link to "Roleplaying Guide and Expectations". I crammed the text into this link, but it should really be copy/pasted to a front page link. This stuff is important, but new players have to dig for it:

wiki/Marine_Quickstart_Guide#Marine_Rol ... pectations

The bullet pointed Alien section of the front page should also get a link to "Roleplaying Guide and Expectations". I crammed the text into this link, but it's very important and should be on the front page:

wiki/Xeno_Quickstart_Guide#Xeno_Rolepla ... pectations

I also crammed a section on the Alien life cycle titled "How to Infect Hosts" into the "About the Aliens" tab. This is very important information and should be included in it's own bullet point on the front page:

wiki/Aliens#How_To_Infect_Hosts

If somebody with front page access could do that, it would be helpful. Thank you.

You did a great job filling in those pages, but linking subsections of pages to the front page is overkill. It would be two links that go to the same information.

I think I miscommunicated. I'm asking for NEW links on the front page to NEW, clean pages with those names. Then we'll cut and paste the information at those links to the new pages. And delete it from where it is now. Basically, I think the information on those pages right now shouldn't be there, but I didn't have anyplace else to put it. I think they'd be better off on new pages that are connected by links from the front page. It's all very important info for new players. Does that make better sense than what I said before? If you created the front page links, I'll cut and paste the text to the new pages if you'd like. I just don't think I have any kind of front page access (and that's fine).

For now I think it's fine where it is.

And please no more HTML formatting. I removed over a hundred <br> tags from those pages. Just hit your Enter key again if you want another space. That's all.
