New page

Did we ever decide what would best be used for issue page titles? This is what we used before the crash. I liked the fact that we created an Order of Publication as well as just the category page, but wonder if a full title or story title would work better? <br>
I played around with it a little, but we can't use the # sign in a page title. It would have to be something like Kurt Busiek's Astro City Issue number 1, Kurt Busieks Astro City Vol. 1 issue 1, keep using 1:1 or go by story titles. <br>
I'd favor getting the issue title as much as can be. The publication/issue section, would to me seem to be one of the more searched/used areas for users. I like the idea of using the story titles as page titles, but would seem more confusing for someone searching for an issue in particular....

		+	I'm back to being kind of wishy-washy. I like the set ups of how we have the story synopses and the publication info, but I'm not sure if I like it from a user perspective. I guess I'm curious if having all the info one page makes it more convenient by only having to visit one page or would that just throw a lot of info at them to scan through? I kind of lean toward the former. <br>
		+	Or are we doing fairly correct? For the most part we only link to the publication (hard info) for appearances and to the story synopses in the character text.

	The only other thing along these lines, that I can't remember how you did was the order of publication. I remember you created it as a sub category I believe, then we the <nowiki>[[Category: 1:1\|081995]]</nowiki> or something along those lines. But for whatever reason it didn't seem like did the whole year. But that's the only way it would seem to work and maybe I'm just crazy...

	::Not sure what is going to work best. Lots of options, lots of site-structure parts related to this. Synopsis as a category works pretty well, if we leave the synopsis on their own page and the issue pages point to them (Direction I am leaning towards - yea I am wishy-washy). The old "shorthand" issue method is great and handy for quick editing (and sorting purposes), but cryptic for casual users. I am playing around with the redirect pages so we can keep the short hand. Another option: we can play around with the templates more. There are several other aspects to this that are dancing around in my head. Lots of clutter up there. For something so simple and trivial this is amazingly complex. What are the precedents on other sites? Any that you guys feel comfortable trying out here?		::Not sure what is going to work best.

-Not sure what is going to work best. Lots of options.  Synopsis as a category works pretty well, if we leave the synopsis on their own page and the issue pages point to them. Also having problems with the issue page titles. Can't use '#'  which have been using in appearance list.  Easy to fix with a 'bot, but not sure which looks better and is easier to read.  There are several other aspects to this that are dancing around in my head.  Lots of clutter up there.

 :Hmmm. That could be resolved by creating a page dedicated to listing the issues, separate from the Category page. For example, from the Buffy the Vampire Slayer wiki -- http://buffy.wikia.com/wiki/Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_Season_Eight. (Scroll down to Publications.)
