==Stubs==
+
-
A page with a stub tag is generally considered an incomplete page, in that it does not have all or enough information to be complete. There are two kinds of stubs:
+
-
 
+
-
Place '''<nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki>''' at the bottom of a page to indicate that the ''whole page'' is a stub. You will see this:
+
-
 
+
-
<div style="border: 1px dashed #06f; margin: 0.5em auto 1em; padding:1em; margin-left:2em"><div class="boilerplate plainlinks" id="stub">[[Image:HRWikiPuzzle.png|STUB'D!]] ''This article is a stub. You can help the Homestar Runner Wiki by [{{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|action=edit}} expanding it''].</div></div>
+
-
 
+
-
Place '''<nowiki>{{sectionstub}}</nowiki>''' inside a specific section to indicate that just that portion of the page needs work. You will see this:
+
-
 
+
-
<div style="border: 1px dashed #06f; margin: 0.5em auto 1em; padding:1em; margin-left:2em"><div class="boilerplate plainlinks" id="stub">[[Image:HRWikiPuzzle.png|STUB'D!]] ''This '''section''' of the page is incomplete. You can help the Homestar Runner Wiki by expanding it.''</div></div>
+
-
 
+
-
==Pages and Sections in Progress==
+
-
Sometimes you need to indicate that you are working on a page so that others will not edit it and cause edit conflicts. Don't forget to remove the following templates when you are through working on a page or section.
+
-
 
+
-
Place '''<nowiki>{{pageinprogress}}</nowiki>''' at the top of a page to indicate that you are working on or creating the ''whole page''. Do ''not'' place this template on a page that a lot of people are editing (like a brand-new toon, for example). You will see this:
+
-
 
+
-
<div id="inprogress" style="background-color: #CCCCFF; border: 1px solid #000099; margin: 0.5em; padding: 0.5em; text-align:center; margin-left: 2em;">'''This page is in progress.'''<br /><small>As always, you are welcome to assist by editing this page, but be aware that another user is currently adding and/or changing substantial content. This template should be removed once the page is complete.</small></div>
+
-
 
+
-
Place '''<nowiki>{{inprogress}}</nowiki>''' at the top of a specific section to indicate that you are working on it. This is helpful when several people are choosing sections to work on in long lists or when someone is transcribing a brand-new toon. You will see this:
+
-
 
+
-
<div id="inprogress" style="background-color: #CCFFCC; border: 1px solid #009900; margin: 0.5em; padding: 0.5em; text-align:center; margin-left: 2em;">'''This section is in progress.'''<br /><small>As a courtesy, please do not edit this section until this tag is removed. You are still welcome to edit other parts of the page.</small></div>
+
-
 
+
-
==Merging Pages==
+
-
Sometimes you may need to merge an incomplete page with a larger page, in order for the information to flow better:
+
-
 
+
-
*Copy the information...
+
-
*Blank the page you copied it from...
+
-
*And place the code '''<nowiki>#REDIRECT [[Larger page]]</nowiki>''' in its place...
+
-
 
+
-
<div style="border: 1px dashed #06f; margin: 0.5em auto 1em; padding:1em; margin-left:2em">http://www.hrwiki.org/skins/common/images/redirect.png <span class="redirectText">[[Main Page|Larger page]]</span></div>
