From EU3 Wiki

Contents 1 Several suggestions 2 Intra-wiki linking 3 1.3? 4 Problem with pix?

[edit] Several suggestions

1. Full-protect this page.
2. A generic Europa Universalis III article that basically explains what EU3 is, its vitalstatistix, new features and patch changes.
3. 3 main categories of focus:

1. Concepts - to explain revolt risk, casus belli, tech group and other game concepts and calculations
2. Strategy - includes both generic topical strategy guides (eg. beginners' guide, colonisation guide) and specific national guides (eg. France guide, Ming guide)
3. Modding - for modding tutorials, resources/utilities and links to mods

Sounds good to me. Havard 21:31, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Would anyone object if I got rid of the 4 boxes in the middle, replacing it with a EU3 introduction paragraph at the top (with a picture), followed by 3 columns - Concepts, Strategy and Modding - then followed by "community links" and/or sister projects on the left?

Not at all. I just nicked the setup from some other wiki before thinking too much on what is needed. Based on your setup suggestion above this makes more sense. Havard 21:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. I work with a widescreen monitor and it fits perfectly, could someone with a normal monitor examine it and see if there's anything particularly bad? (Like tables not matching up, picture too small, lopsided text, etc.) Miborovsky 00:14, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks fine on my 1280*1024 Havard 00:20, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Can you lower your resolution to 1024*768 and look again? I have a 1440x900 so I need to know how it looks on low-res monitors. Miborovsky 00:38, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Looks good at 1024*768 too. Havard 00:48, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

OK thanks. Miborovsky 00:57, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Remember, you can always resize your borwser window to test it in lower resolutions. ;) In IE, I suggest IE Developer Toolbar, in Firefox Web Developer Toolbar. Each of these have resize function to quickly and precisely resize your browser window to desired resolution. --Lord Ederon 03:48, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Intra-wiki linking

I'll set up links from the main pages at the Vicky-, HOI2- and EU2-wikis tomorrow. Due to the way Rythin has set up EU2WIki, it'll be using the logo hosted here; is that OK? For the other two, I'll upload the logo to the wikis and use them locally there. Rafiki 21:37, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Sure. And we'll add links the other way. I need to sort out that CK wiki (database problem)... Havard 21:59, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Done. :) Rafiki 10:14, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

The Vicky-, EU2- and HOI2-wikis have now moved to paradoxian.org, if you'd like to update the Main Page links here :-) Rafiki 00:14, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 1.3?

Perhaps add 1.0 for Nappy?

Yes. We should have more about NA generally... Havard 16:55, 3 October 2007 (CEST)

[edit] Problem with pix?

Hi, I just uploaded [1] and tried making an inset on Advisors. It gives an error. This approach worked for me on other wikis. What's wrong? Thanks -RedKnight7 07:36, 17 May 2008 (CEST)
