    Might I suggest a feature which to start threads which are actually direct links to Wiki articles than conventional threads. A bit like the "moved" is now, only having the term "Link:" or "Wiki Article:" as an unbolded prefix rather than "Moved:"

    It would make the wiki a bit easier to make public and navigate. Especially if we are replacing things such as guides or FAQs with articles within it.

    I think you can do that somehow - TWC's got it on a link redirecting what would have been a sub-forum

    Was going to suggest though with something like the Modders Guide to CTD's (which I keep forgetting to go back to work on) - that we just get a mod to edit in a big link to the wiki page at the top of the first post in thread - so actual thread stays on forum - so 'who said what' content and further discussion are still on forum, but link to 'Updated Overview', or whatever, is on wiki....

    One other question before I get elbow deep in this: who can edit the wiki? Is it restricted to just Org members, or can anyone that finds the URL make changes? I assume that content on the wiki is bound by the same rules as the forum (no swearing, flaming, pr0n, piracy talk/links, etc.), but non-members would not face consequences for defacing pages.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.

    Using Makanyane's template as a starting point, I created a standard template for MTW combat units.
    https://forums.totalwar.org/wiki/ind...plate:MTW_Unit
    I will probably create templates for Agents, Ships, and Artillery at some point.

    I need to figure out conditionals, so that unnecessary fields for a given unit don't clutter up the picture. The table syntax is making my eyes cross. I thought Lisp was bad...

    Vladimir that was truly groan worthy....

    @ Drone, looks good - I tried getting version working that missed out un-used rows and failed

    There was working one on TWC
    http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/Template:Faction
    that I played with, and it needs the
    {{#if:
    stuff to get the unused one to disappear, I can't find way of persuading same thing or similar to work here at moment though.
