[edit] Format of URLs and Page Titles

oops... should have added the talk here, but let me get a blurb mentioned pointing to it:

Talk:CastleCops_Staff:_Special_Response_Team_(SRT)#Use_of_parens_in_title

--Paul 10:49, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Hmmm .... I'm not sure why you changed the SRT link back. I moved the CastleCops Staff: Special Response Team (SRT) page to CastleCops Staff: Special Response Team and had just changed the link to the moved page name with a second link to the same page but with "(SRT)" as the displayed name. Looks like we stepping on each other here.  :) --Ikeb 01:19, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
I think I saw a trailing space and I removed it.--Paul 09:41, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
D'oh! I just looked again and now see what you did. (Removed the second link and combined the displayed names.) Much cleaner than what I had done.

[edit] Categories

If you check here Category:CastleCops_Staff

They all fall under "C" rather than just "M" with Moderator, et cetera. Anyone know of an easy way to distribute it under the other letters? --Paul 14:51, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Looks like you got that sorted.  :)
... though this does kibosh my intention to add a template for easier browsing and including the category within the template. No big deal though. --Ikeb 00:42, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Heck no Ike... lets see what you mean. Often times my suggestions are simply put to rest because someone else has a far better approach. --Paul 00:44, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
You could look at some of the MailWasher Pro pages to see how I used templates there. I just included the category within the template rather than repeating on each page. As I say, no big deal especially since the category code has already been added and since the discrete references adds value by allowing the ABC thing.
In a real sense though the category is the volkswagon navigation aid while a template is the cadilac version. I.e. the use of a template as a navigation aid marginalizes the use of a category. --Ikeb 01:30, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Before I made any changes I had checked out the templates for both that and iDownload. This is where I need to build up my knowledge in wiki more.--Paul 09:40, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)

[edit] Categories

I've started a discussion under the Staff category --Robin 19:31, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)

What's the link? --Paul 23:41, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)

[edit] CastleCops: or CastleCops_Staff:?

I'm thinking we're going to have plenty more of "CastleCops" type related articles. What if we keep them uniform under "CastleCops:"? Then for all the current CastleCops_Staff: articles, we'd simply use the categories. I can rename them all to show what I'm talking about if you like, and undo if not.--Paul 23:40, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Hmmm ... perhaps a CastleCops: namespace? I'm not sure if that would be appropriate nor how to set it up though.
Anyway, I can envision what you're getting at but personally am not sure that it's beneficial. So a staff position page would be titled CastleCops: Staff: Special Response Team for example? --Ikeb 23:55, 2 Aug 2005 (EDT)
I'm thinking something like this...
  • CastleCops Staff: Rolls and Responsibilities -> CastleCops:Rolls and Responsibilities
Contains the SubCategory Category:CastleCops Staff
  • Category:CastleCops Staff -> Castegory:CastleCops Staff
Contains the Category Category:CastleCops
  • CastleCops Staff: Mentor -> CastleCops:Mentor
Contains the SubCat Category:CastleCops Staff
I know its a lot to take in, so many a demo would work? How about if I put together a proposal with test pages? --Paul 00:03, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Sure thing. Might be the best way to get it all square. I can apprecaite the subcategorization bit: I just don't have it straight how the title would appear. --Ikeb 00:47, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Ok, so lets both come back with some demos and we can go from there. Nothing beats visual aid. --Paul 00:50, 3 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Well I know I didn't go anywhere with this. I'm sure there are advantages to categories and templates both. I'm for the template on this one. --Paul 16:02, 14 Aug 2005 (EDT)

[edit] Expansion of this article

The titles and rank images are there which is great. But what about a synopsis for each group? --Paul 16:03, 14 Aug 2005 (EDT)

Added link to list of staff. --Chiawaikian 23:28, 28 November 2005 (EST)

Good one Chiawaikian! I don't recall ever seeing that page before.  ;) --Ikester 02:43, 29 November 2005 (EST)
There is a link at the top of CastleCops. (if you're signed in as staff) --Chiawaikian 02:50, 29 November 2005 (EST)

Added Rootkit Responder and Rootkit Expert entries under staff.--Negster22 16:40, 20 January 2007 (EST)

[edit] Group pruning

I think perhaps we can remove some of the groups as they may no longer be active at CC? --Paul 17:39, 18 January 2007 (EST)

Which ones? --Ikester 22:37, 18 January 2007 (EST)

I noticed that the Administrator has no definition whereas the Forum Admin category is defined. Is there a distinction worth keeping? --Ikester 23:54, 23 January 2007 (EST)
