Difference between revisions of "Talk:Notables"

Hope I am adding this comment correctly.

Can we change the term "Hall of Fame" to "Notables" ? That is more consistent with the terminology direction Geni is going in.

Many thanks, Erica, Geni curator.

Done. Shmuelakam 13:57, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

User Manuel just added "Rafael Ramiro" under Mexico, with a category "Military". Why is this a celebrity or historical person? No wikipedia reference. Is Military really a category to add? Wouldn't any military person qualify as a celebrity?

Wikipedia links

The Wikipedia-links don't work - template needs fixing? ambivaline 22 Nov 2009

I've tried. The result is that all names without special characters works.

If someone looks at the wp-template, there is one problem:

Wikipedia use _ instead for space in the url.

Urlencode gives correct special characters (the code start with %), but + instead for space.

Anchorencode gives wrong special characters (the code start with ., not %), but _ instead for space, which is correct. --Anjar 19:17, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Now it works! I changed {{anchorencode: {{{1}}}}}} to {{PAGENAMEE: {{{1}}}}}} This should work on all the persons. --Anjar 14:45, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

Instructions

Use the {{HOF}} template, which takes the following parameters:

• name
• category
• profileid
• lifespan
• description

But do not add titles as general or coronel! Then the Wikipedia link doesn't work. --Anjar 14:51, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

If it not exist an article on the english wikipedia, where should the language code be placed in the HOF-template. --Anjar 15:15, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
