No offense but the current system is something of a mess. There's a lot of good information but it's quite badly organised. Do you moderator types get notifications on discussion page changes (ie is anyone likely to respond to me)? Is there a better way to discuss changes bigger than adding new pages / rewording things?
usually, either the feedback thread, this thread, or through pm is just fine - I just sent you one. IRC is good too, but I understand that's hard for people to use sometimes.
We don't get notifications for talk pages though, so i'll usually only check those if someone either tells me to, or i'm going to change something drastic (aka not spellcheck/grammer/style)

How can I add a strategy? I dont see the "new page" button anywhere.
|
If you go to a page that doesn't exist eg. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/my_awesome_new_build then at the top of the page there's a tab that says 'create'. Add whatever it is you're adding, save it, then go to the relevant strategy page and add a link to your new one. There may be another method, but that works for me.
|
The right way is to make a search under the page you want to create. Lets say you want to create a strategy known as cannon rush on map called "x": go make a search for cannon+rush+x and now liquipedia offers you the pages that can be already made on that strategy. If that strategy's name doesnt match any other liquipedia search offers the option to create that page. This is prefered since maybe Four_Gate_goon doesnt exist you make the effort to create that page just to get stomped by the fact that 4_gate_goon exists. Try not to create a page before searching.
|
The other interesting thing is that you can work on a page/idea without having to actually create it: Use your personal page as a sandbox to test what you want to create and maybe ask for help/ corrections from there. Every liquipedia user (thus every TL accountant) has a personal page that can be easily found by clicking on you own name (the upper tab) once you are logged in liquipedia. That page can contain anything (afaik there are no restrictions would be good to know if there are any ;/ ). You can access other users pages too using this link http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/User:Malongo But the main point is to practice with your own page. This helps alot because once you make a page you dont want to start making cosmetic chages everyday on that page (Every change has to be reviewed). The good thing is that your personal page doesnt need review to update.

for the personal pages, you can toss whatever you want there pretty much (as can everyone else -_-). Follow the tl.net 10 commandments, and then life should be good.

editing plus1 speedzeal (vs Zerg) because its not even close to the truth :O it had lies such as having 4 gateway zealot nor had any accuracy.
Added a somewhat accurate build order mainly focusing on gas income. Also added the build for the Jangbi Strategy (double stargate dt follow up) in the transition section of the page.
if the other Protoss strategy pages are in such poor shape, I guess I should start editing t.t

Ive figured out something to edit it with, but i cant come up with some good, almost everything exists in liquidpedia already, its so well done.

There's lots of articles in the strategy section that don't have a liquidpedia equivalent. You could try starting there if you wanted. Basically you'd just have to take the information here and format it into something that works for Liquidpedia. If you're not sure which articles are on the docket, ask cgrinker and aesop, they like sending PM's to people who wrote things that need translation to liquidpedia.

As a terran player I'm skimming through and there is a lot of obvious stuff in there and I really couldn't think of anything to add. Anyone who uses liquipedia trying to learn terran have any recommendations or requests of things to be written?

Because we wrote a lot of that stuff a year ago, and all we had was old VODs at the time a lot of our TvZ stuff is out of date. If you feel like you watch a lot of proleague right now or can talk about what 1 Rax or Mech looks like right now then that's a good place to start.

when I said "alot of the obvious stuff" I meant it as a positive way, like anything obviously important about strategy or builds I could think of is already included. Ill take a look at 1 rax and mech now

TvT needs a lot of work. I've been thinking of putting up the 1 fac expo variations, but not only is it hard to organize, but its a lot of work.
