== Formatting ==


Hi.
== Version history/0.16.0 (from .28 to .34) ==


I have several questions about formatting.
Hello there, it's about the 0.16 changelog : https://wiki.factorio.com/Version_history/0.16.0
# Should I bold titles? In some articles titles are bold (eg. [[Pistol]], [[Wooden chest]]) and in some aren't (eg. [[Land mine]], [[Rocket launcher]]).
# Should I put spaces between header begining, ending and text (eg. [[Rocket launcher]] and [[Burner mining drill]] - there are spaces in "History" header, but no in "See also" header)?
And is [[Template:EquipNav]] redundant? Only some translated articles are using it ([[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:EquipNav]]) and this template doesn't include icons. In most cases it could be replaced with [[Template:CombatNav]]. --[[User:Zabshk|<span style="color:#1589FF">'''Zabshk'''</span>]] [[User talk:Zabshk|<sup><span style="color:#736F6E">'''(query)'''</span></sup>]] 16:44, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

: Hey there Zabshk, all good questions. As for bolding titles on pages, we don't have a specific rule, but we do encourage it for new pages. You can leave it off if you feel it isn't necessary. As for the spacing, again, not really defined. You may put what you think looks the best for the page content in question. The Equipnav template is actually outdated (I should probably delete it), instead we use a system that organizes pages by their ingame organization, aka [[Template:ProductionNav]], [[Template:IntermediateNav]], [[Template:CombatNav]], and [[Template:LogisticsNav]]. We also have [[Template:TechNav]] for techs. Let me know if you have any more questions. --([[User:Gangsir|Gangsir]]) ([[User talk:Gangsir|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 20:42, 2 May 2017 (UTC)


== Small Pump changes ==
I was about to do it then i read <<''Please don't waste your time updating this page, User:Gangsir can do it automatically. If he forgets to do it, please message him about it.''>>


Hi Gangsir,
This is the message about it. --[[User:762x51mm|762x51mm]] ([[User talk:762x51mm|talk]]) 13:42, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
I'm new here and new to wiki editing, so bear with me for a moment. I've been working on updating the [[small pump]] page to reflect it's new capabilities in 0.15.x but it really needs to be moved to [[pump]] to reflect the entity's name change.
At present I'm not comfortable making that move as I don't understand the implications, can you either move it or advise me on the plan below.


I believe what needs to happen is:
: Thanks, updated. --[[User:Gangsir|Gangsir]] ([[User talk:Gangsir|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 20:25, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
* Move the existing [[pump]] page to a new temporary location
* Move the [[small pump]] page to [[pump]]
* reformat the old pump page into a disambiguation page or combine it's content into the top of the new pump page
* find and fix broken links


And most importantly, thanks for having me and including me in the community :)

Hi,
: Hey there Morshan, you're close. Typically in the event of a name collision with a disambiguation page, we normally just delete the disambiguation page. I'll handle it, thanks for the conflict report. --([[User:Gangsir|Gangsir]]) ([[User talk:Gangsir|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 21:02, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
 
In [[Template:VersionNav]], is there a reason some versions are grouped together (f.e. 0.14-0.15) while other aren't? The current scheme seems quite arbitrary. [[User:Spyhawk|Spyhawk]] ([[User talk:Spyhawk|talk]]) 19:53, 26 March 2018 (UTC)
 
:They are grouped because the template doesn't allow an unlimited amount of groups. Which ones are grouped is depends on how many subversions each version has and groups a maximum of 3 major versions together. -- [[User:Bilka|Bilka]] ([[User talk:Bilka|talk]]) - <span style="color:#FF0000">Admin</span> 18:54, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

VersionNav template

Hi,

In Template:VersionNav, is there a reason some versions are grouped together (f.e. 0.14-0.15) while other aren't? The current scheme seems quite arbitrary. Spyhawk (talk) 19:53, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

They are grouped because the template doesn't allow an unlimited amount of groups. Which ones are grouped is depends on how many subversions each version has and groups a maximum of 3 major versions together. -- Bilka (talk) - Admin 18:54, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
I see, this makes sense. Thank you for the explanation! Spyhawk (talk) 18:58, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
