Talk:Main Page
As you can tell, we're in the very early stages here! There is a template for dragons, thanks to Lydia -- see the Maximus page for an example of how to use it. I'll be duplicating it for the humans asap.
For the moment, feel free to add pages as you like -- make sure you put [[category:A-Z]] on every page, in addition to any other category.
I'm looking for an outside place we can upload images to -- you are welcome to link to anything in the Gallery section on temeraire.org in the meantime.

More Templates!
There are now templates for People, Dragons, and Dragon Species. Have a look at Category:Templates, and for usage, look at the source on Temeraire, William Laurence and Regal Copper.
Sekrit to Lydia -- the way to keep Category:Templates off the pages that use the templates is to put this code on the template page:
<noinclude> [[Category:Templates]] </noinclude>

Conventions
I've started a page here for conventions for this wiki -- let's talk about any specifics over there.

French names & such
I've moved Amitié to Amite -- let's bail on the accented characters for wiki purposes. It's only going to get worse with the Pecheurs and such, and either having to remember the alt-character or copying and pasting all the time is hereby deemed a pain :)

Alphabetical listings of names
Aha! To have characters sort in the category pages by last names, enter the categories like so:
[[Category:A-Z|Laurence, William]]
(You have to include this for each relevant category in the article.)
The listing will still show up as "William Laurence" but it will appear under L instead of W.
(BTW to add signature and timestamp to your Talk posts, it's a 4 tildes (~). I use a dash first, so like so to produce my sig line below: -~~~~
"Life's a dance, you learn as you go" -- just like wikicode :)
