Talk:Little India

The author of this page is creating a ton of tiny pages with names that don't fit NSwiki:Naming conventions. We'd appreciate it if you would stop and read before creating a bunch more pages. Thanks. → Fris Θtalk 13:19, 29 October 2005 (GMT)

"A ton of tiny pages" is hardly accurate. Besides, the pages that I have created are all either in the process of construction or completed to a degree satisfactory to myself and to convey sufficient information that I wish to give. Also, I have had to separate my information, as my main page is almost "full".

And what is wrong with the way I'm naming the pages???

Various things. Some are too long. Some are not very descriptive. Read NSwiki:Naming conventions to find out how you should name them. Thanks. → Ceo\squawk 21:19, December 3, 2005 (GMT)

The 32kb page limit is a guideline. There are some pages which significantly exceed this. Personally - although this isn't 'official policy', I'd rather you created a slightly-too-large main article than many stubs. If you don't know anything more about your province than its name, it probably doesn't merit a whole separate page.

As for naming conventions, I can't speak for Frisbeeteria, but I suspect he was referring to your use of pretitles, such as 'The Kingdom of...' or 'Most Serene Republic of...'. These are unnecessary, and unconventional. It's preferred to simply title the article 'Bobland', instead of 'The Principality of Bobland'.

But the thing is, some titles are necessary to be long so that they make sense. And many of the pages that are extremely short are all in construction outside the site, so that I can copy and paste them accordingly. I just don't like having lots of red links - it REALLY irritates me. And the names of my provinces and the pretitle in the page name I feel are necessary - normally, for a nation, you put just the name. To be discernable from a nation, I use the pretitle as well. Besides, does it really matter if I use the province's pretitle in the name? Don't you think it's a little obsessive to complain about using a pretitle? And may I point out, that the Naming Convention is just that - a convention, NOT a rule. If it was a rule, then I would most certainly adhere to it. 23:54, 3 December 2005 (GMT)~

And I didn't know the limit was a guideline - if I had, I wouldn't have created the other articles. I may now consolidate the information into one single article. 84.68.55.19 23:58, 3 December 2005 (GMT)

OK, so now most of the information has been put into the one article - over the next week I'll sort out the other articles - and think about getting some of them deleted. 81.77.102.12 17:06, 4 December 2005 (GMT)
