Notes recorded during updating and new content addition

Suggestions to simplify working with Track Networks

1. Set up the Track _ModelObject column options to enable renaming of the Track's object label.
   The only Track Section identification name that the modeller or user works with is this one.
2. Change the Menu Option "Section Colours" to "Track Colours"

How I am adding content

(This is a work in progress)..

Make a new page that contains all the overall text and the details, separated by headings.

Then hive off individual Sections into pages of their own, leaving a reference in the original page.

-- Work out how to do thisand write up the steps here so I can come back and check again when I forget the procedure.

Earlier Process Notes

(May require revisions)

Process and Methodology

---

DON'T edit the MAIN PAGE

---

DON'T turn section headings into links.

---

Create a "source" Article

Then call it into a (new or existing) "summary" article.

using the following technique.

e.g.

 

==Agents==

{{main|Agent}}

{{:Agent}} 

will pull the entire article,

For a summary only, set up a limit on included text in the Main article, as follows:

e.g

<onlyinclude>

Agents are a special type of  [[Item]]  that interacts with some objects in a different way to standard items. Agents play a role as transporter of other items. An agent can pick-up one or more items at a location, and then move them to another location and drop them in the new location. 

 
</onlyinclude> 
 

To edit a section of a page, click on the Edit link to the right of the Section Heading.

To edit an entire page, click on the Edit link at the bottom of the page (in the grey bar).

How to add a list of articles from same category (or other categories) and make specific exclusions, inclusions etc.

e.g.

<DPL>
 
category=Item 

notnamespace=Category 

notcategory=FAQ 

ordermethod=pagetouched 

order=descending 

 
</DPL>
