List areas of the Biki that are in need of attention.


Sections that urgently need Content

The ArmA section has no content (or only stubs) for editing a mission (editor use, briefing, etc.), waypoints and triggers. These are very basic concepts that a lot of people will want to know more about, but the Wiki has hardly anything about them. Until new content is created we should at least point to the pages from OFP.

The ArmA mission editor itself is now covered, although another article covering the link between a mission and briefing.html, objectives, description.ext, etc is still needed. Ceeeb

Dialogs has been uncovered for a while now [1], someone with expertise in this topic might want to contribute. -- Manny 03:09, 29 April 2007 (CEST)

Definitely, I created my first dialog yesterday using Vektorboson's tutorial from 2002! Failing all else a reference list of ArmA resource types and definitions would be very useful. Another empty article is Dialog_Control. --Ceeeb 05:14, 29 April 2007 (CEST)
Dialog Control should be deleted then until data is added, imho. It's quite irritating: the article only exists with a "placeholder page" statement as of now, which results in the problem that it does not show up on Special:Wanted Pages, where it'd definitely be among the top 3. -- Manny 05:24, 29 April 2007 (CEST)
raedor was kind enough to remove it. Now we should focus on Dialogs in the near future and bring along Dialog Control simultanously. -- Manny 03:28, 30 April 2007 (CEST)

deleteCollection is unclear, at least for me. It says that it deletes a collection, nothing more. Since it takes an object as the right argument, I'm pretty much confused. The only collection data type I can think of is array (which isn't an object per se). Someone might want to look into it and specify exactly what this is about in the article itself (and perhaps apply a Command Group by Functionality reference afterwards). -- Manny 03:28, 30 April 2007 (CEST)

Same applies to: deleteTarget, difficultyEnabled. -- Manny 03:43, 30 April 2007 (CEST)

Buggy Wiki Pages

* Even though the Category:Reference_Lists is linked to from OFP/E, it doesn't contain any content for those games, but only ArmA links. Done hoz

  • MP Squads list/categories needs sorting out, perhaps a different approach should be taken then the categories. Hopefully someone picks up this task. :) hoz
