User:公的驱逐舰/Grand plan

This is One-Six's own grand plan on building a rule set for EN MGP.

Naming custom

• Category
  • use all lowercase (except for the automatically capitalized first letter) for all commonly used category, so category handler can use {{lc:}} to automatically avoid capitalization issues while preserving good legibility (FULL UPPERCASE IS NO GOOD!)
  • always use plural (category with only one entry is not necessary)

• Template: Camel Case?

Categorizing

• Categories
  • Index by work title
  • Index by artist
  • Index by work type
  • Biographies
  • All other categories
  • Moegirlpedia pages
    • Moegirlpedia policies
      • Provisional policies
    • Inactive policies
    • Public Discussions
    • Proposals
      • Passed proposals
      • failed proposals
    • Essays
    • Helps
  • Maintenance categories (Redirect: To-Do(keep?), To-do list?)
    • All categories used to mark issues needing fixing
  • Templates
    • Templates of high use? Or perhaps Templates needing high attention (asking all edits of these temp to be verified)
    • Meta templates: templates used to build templates, or to perform invisible functions as a part of a template
    • Informational Templates: templates used to present a message(s)(need specifying)
      • Category:Page-top informational templates(name?): InfoTemp used on the first several lines of a page, before the body of the article
      • Mid-page informational templates(name?): InfoTemp used within the body of the article, potentially interrupting the flow
      • Page-bottom informational templates(name?): InfoTemp used on the last several lines of a page, after the body of the article and after references
      • Block informational templates: InfoTemp usually placed at the start of the body of the article, providing a overview of the article
      • Templates based on navboxes (naming?): InfoTemp built upon navboxes, usually placed after the body of the article (and before references?)
    • Functional Templates (performing a visible function, like Template:Font, Template:Color)
    • Maintenance Templates
      • Discussion Templates (location?)
        • Voting Templates
    • Templates for template documentations (e.g. Template:HighRisk, Template:Esoteric)
    • Templates for categories (e.g. Template:EmptyCatGood, Template:CategoryRedirect)
    • Template documentations(location?)

What to do with these?

• Page-Top Templates
  • Potentially:Mid-page templates, Page-bottom templates

Page-Top template hierarchy

Page-Top Templates must be placed in a certain order for best legibility. Templates that notify a more important information should always be placed near the top. Non-Block templates should always be at the top.

Hierarchy draft:

Note: Some mutually exclusive templates are on the same hierarchy order; in other cases, mutually exclusive templates might not be on the same order.

Article

1. Non-Block disambiguation templates (avoid using Block disambig)
2. Non-Block informational templates (e.g. Chinese naming custom)
3. Non-Block "From Other Wiki" (avoid using Block FOW)
4. Work in Progress
   • should not be used with AD or ESD, but may be used if deletion is challenged
5. Awaiting Deletion, Eligible for Speedy Deletion
   • ME: ESD encompasses AD
6. Deletion Challenged
   • Applicable only when AD or ESD is in place
7. Plagiarism, Issue, Incomplete
   • ME; AD or ESD > Plag > Issue > Incomp
8. From Other Wiki
9. sensitive, humorous, trolling...
10. Ongoing work, ongoing event, (Work)Finished
    • ME
11. Local infobox template: flexible ordering
12. Side-box/centered Song-box: there should be only one

• Suggestion: use non-Block Template:FromOther

Deletion

• Petition for deletion in MGP_talk:PfD with structured templates. Use NfD as necessary.
  • MGP_talk:QPfD?
  • {{subst:PfD/auto|type=R|reason=|status=n<!--DO NOT EDIT! for admins only-->|sr=}}<!--discussion goes here-->{{PfD/endmark|status=|signed=}}
    • type: R=regular Q=speedy deletion O=petition by the only contributor of the page(?) U=userpage
    • status: n(or empty)=nominated i=discussion in progress r=rejected d=delete k=keep m=merge q=speedy delete c=closed (w/o consensus) f=fixed(?) s=suspended w=withdrawn(?)
• Setup speedy deletion
• Templates: Adel=Awaiting Deletion, NfD=Nominated for Deletion, DelCon=deletion contested (for NfD-Q and Adel)
  • {{NfD/auto|Q|D2|status=}}, {{NfD/auto|type=Q|reason=D2|status}}
