Requested Template
I've noticed Shane has been creating a number of new articles recently using the {{requested}} template. I personally think that unless we're going to had at least a brief description - that is, a {{stub}}, it's better to leave such articles empty, so that the red links alert other browsers to the need for such articles. A casual browser seeing a yellow link to one of these new pages would probably never follow that link to see that it's essentially empty, nor realize that their contribution could be valuable. --April Arcus 00:22, 17 May 2006 (CDT)
- Battlestar Wiki:Tasks would be listing the "Requested" section. I just need to get back on the bot code so it works and then get joe to set it up so it runs every few hours to keep the Open task page updates. --Shane (T - C - E) 20:38, 6 June 2006 (CDT)
- I'm not sure how this addresses my point about red links being a useful cue. --April Arcus 20:46, 6 June 2006 (CDT)
