Thanks. Smiley

I have some thoughts:

The infoboxes - very nice, but there are some things in them which I think need to be clarified. What is richness, for example, and how do you measure it? And how do you decide how important something is? I think we should find some more objective things, like square meters, local government and maybe buildings, which are already included in the infobox. Those are good. I find it harder to determine the number of roads, because they connect, split etc. in ways which makes them pretty hard to number, and makes the number pretty meaningless. Maybe meters of road? That'll just take a lot of time to measure, but I won't stop anyone who would want to do that. Tongue

I think we should have one kind of infobox for all regions, and one kind of infobox for all municipalities.

How did you [SuperNova] determine the water percentage of Novascotchara?

Also, I know Novascotchara isn't finished, but I still recommend calling it Novascotchara, and not include beta. Think of it as a real region on Earth being developed, it is never in a beta stage, but always tries to improve itself, and it can always expand more. For example, Denmark wasn't Denmark Beta before 1849. Smiley

Thanks for your thoughts and i'll and answer them

1. Yes, i didnt add richness nor importance. sombody added those. Meters of road is realy good Cheesy

2.  1 infobox for all would be one heck of a infobox Tongue i like to keep e'm seperate

3. well....... Grin just looked at it, made a measurement and it was like 60% X)

4. Well, this aint the real world is it? XD
you'll see why its called Novascotchara β

Keep the edits coming btw 8D

1: Okay, fair enough. I'll probably delete them soon, if nobody comes up with good reasons to keep them (don't be afraid of adding such things, though).

2: I mean one infobox with the same elements for each region/municipality. So all of the regions have for example meters of road, land percentage, main biome type, etc. instead of one region having meters of road and land percentage while another has water percentage and main biome type. They just have different values fitting the regions.

3: I think we need to measure such things accurately when we add them, otherwise it'll be hard to tell what is factual information and what is just estimated.

4: No, but it's a fully legit and realism-mimicing server. It's not a game being developed either, like Minecraft Beta. Tongue Also, the first stage would actually be alpha.

All of my things? Oh for myself. lol

On alot of the land areas, there aren't infoboxes... Yours was the only one.

I just made a real infobox. The wikia infoboxes are stupid because you put in both the title and the answer, a wikipedia infobox you just put
| parameter = thing

so check out [[Template:Province]] and put that on your page... At least I'm going to use it. You can ask me to change it since it seems I'm the only one who knows how to write those.

I figured it out. Don't use those templates. It doesn't work. You'll have to make it yourself. I think it's a new feature of wikia, which in fact like the last update, sucks. I don't really have much against them except they're adding some pretty useless features, like achievements. Yay I edited 25 pages... Who the frick cares? It's not like you can use the points you earn.

Anyway the land one doesn't use a real infobox, it uses the wikia's fail infobox which has editable title names (not good), as well as a more messy code structure. Use [[Template:Province]]... lol
