Draft for new TWS2 homepage
From Totalwar.org
This is a straw man for a new TWS2 homepage. Anyone is welcome to edit it. If you have ideas or questions, ask on this page's Talk page.
This page will be archived and removed when we all generally agree on a new homepage layout, and institute it.
Text in - italics are comments:
| Total War: Shogun 2 |
| Overview |
| Welcome to newcomers - page includes the usual tips to newbies on posting to the wiki, but also specifics on e.g. appending TWS2 to all new TWS2 pages |
| Wikipedia overview - maybe this should link straight to Wikipedia... why not, eh? |
| Intro for beginners to TW games - this can be a single page that all TW games can point to |
| Background of the game - a history lesson on mid-1500s Japan; just a couple of pages, with lots of links for interested readers |
| Modern Japan, in comparison to the game's period |
| Community - links to TW TWS2 forums first, then other good TWS2 forums |
| Links - all other good related gamesites/wikis and feudal Japan sites |
| Game Mechanics - by far the single biggest meta-category |
| Many many subcategories |
| Strategic map |
| Many many subcategories |
| Combat |
| Many many subcategories |
| Multiplayer - specifics, and as opposed to SP |
| DLC / expansions - I guess Content Managers will have to decide if DLC or expansions warrant a completely "separate" wiki, on a case by case basis |
| Deeper |
| General interface tips and tricks |
| Modding the game in general - how-to, popular mods |
| Tweaking the interface and game - how to modify it for yourself as opposed to downloadable mods |
| Many more categories here too |
We all have our pet categories. The above is only a straw man which I expect to be enormously modified before we post this to the TWS2 homepage.
