Wiki Wishlist
For features people would like the wiki to have, either in terms of easy ("please create this page") or more difficult ("please add this feature"/ "change this CSS")
Please sign your suggestions in case they need clarification.
Wishlist suggestions:
- meta page displaying all tags that've been used, automatically updating (sorted by tags and tag values?)
- https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/pull/1354 I can bring this feature in if this solves your issue - Asterisms
- Update: That PR is *not* sufficient, /tags exists but needs more work. - Asterisms
- A way to grab existing metadata on threads and characters (Setting, character lists, nicknames...) from the constellation, maybe by entering the relevant url, rather than needing to hand reenter it.
- Would it be sufficient to have this as a separate webpage rather than integrating it into this interface? - Asterisms
- A way to edit just the tags on a page.
- This is underspecified, what does this do that Edit Page doesn't? - Asterisms
- I meant like... a quick-edit button for tags? without leaving the actual page. It's definitely not a must-have, though. -Manya
- This is underspecified, what does this do that Edit Page doesn't? - Asterisms
- A way to tag many things at once.
- Would something like "do an exact text search on all pages and add tag:value if string is found" be sufficient here? - Asterisms
- hm, I was mostly thinking of like... "tag all pages in this book/chapter with tag:value", but that might work - Manya
- Would something like "do an exact text search on all pages and add tag:value if string is found" be sufficient here? - Asterisms
- a pop up when activating a template for a page that warns you it'll overwrite anything already typed into the draft
- A template for Table of Contents or other fic-navigation stuff. (-Cakoluchiam)
- Example ToC
- Include in template:
- Source of the ToC (e.g., glowfic.com thread list, or fan-made)
- List of contributors
- Open text field (e.g. for describing the rationale behind the ToC)
- At least 3–4 levels of hierarchy: (names customizable)
- Continuity/Series/Book (could be relegated to the title/header of the wiki page maybe?)
- Volume/Thread/Book (in the sense that in print it would be one bound volume, like a novel, ~50,000–150,000 words)
- Act/Section/Book (in the sense that a physical book often has multiple "Books" denoting thematic or temporal shifts, ~10,000–50,000 words)
- Chapter/Scene (in the sense of an easily-digestible/narratively-contained chunk one could read in a sitting, ~1,000–8,000 words)
- Author(s) for each entry
- Alts/templates (I don't know if this should be per entry or at the top of each page? Maybe spoilered? -Cakoluchiam)
- Word count for each entry
- Spoilered summary for each entry
- Non-spoilered summary/indication of where the section ends, to assist read-alongs
- Standard icon/indicator/format for tag permalink on glowfic[dot]com
- Standard icons/format for permalinks to external sites (e.g., projectlawful[dot]com)
