Eventually I would like to move it all over to Categories, like the [[:Category:Zinester|Zinester Directory]] to avoid the double work. But until more of those red links are blue, we need to keep the hand-made Zines A-Z list. Thanks for all your help.

ZineWiki Editor's Forum
Please note: You should be an official editor if contributing to this page.
Hey guys, over on Wikipedia, I've created a few Author Navigation Boxes, one for Mark Z. Danielewski and one for Stephen King (the King one took hours, you can view it here) and one for Edgar Allan Poe. Basically what this does is create a cool little navigation box at the bottom of every entry related specifically to a certain person.
I'd like to start using these on ZineWiki for some of our more prolific writers. I've created a mock one using myself (with a few fake titles thrown in for demonstration purposes). Can you take a look on my page and let me know what you think about using these? Alan Fall of Autumn 15:17, 18 September 2006 (EDT)
Categories vs Lists
I spent the morning going through the Zines A-Z lists and comparing each listing to the zines catagory tag and making sure that every zine we had in the wiki was on the hand-made lists, and vice versa. As the wiki grows, I doubt I'll be able to do this again by hand. So we need to keep up on that a little better. Each time any of you see a new zine added, please make sure it is also added to the hand-made Zines A-Z list.
Eventually I would like to move it all over to Categories, like the Zinester Directory to avoid the double work. But until more of those red links are blue, we need to keep the hand-made Zines A-Z list. Thanks for all your help. Alan Fall of Autumn 11:22, 30 September 2006 (EDT)
"Wikipedia" or "I practice my melodrama"
We're up for deletion again (right here)... this will be the third time. The first two times we sucessfully beat the nomination and have kept our page.
