Misc Site Suggestions

Added winter weather criteria for FFC.

Is there a way you could make the words links rather than have a long link? The page would look a bit cleaner. Thank you for adding that page BTW! :)
if for example you mean to turn "March 2017" in to a hot link rather than having the link itself - I'm not sure how to do that on the Wiki page; and every time I edit I end up damn near killing the whole section ... :eek:
 
btw - the page is currently locked by you so i can't look at edits and see what you did!
It was showing the same thing a bit earlier for that page, but said you were editing it. I think you have to wait until the lock expires, but I will log out and re log back in to see if it breaks the lock. :)
 
Love it! When we accumulate years on this board, sections would have to be created for the years. For now, looks perfect!:)
Learning a new syntax here - I'm 35 years Apple (create hyperlink and it's done in my world) but this is fun learning! Anyways - Good Friday and a day of rest is over ... Thanks for all you're doing!
 
Hey ForsythSnow - My wife is asking about our wages for this ... LOL (but she's curled up with a book so it's all good :D)

for me -- ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

Unlimited use of this . Ask her where she wants to go

Is there a simpler way to get back to the forum from the wiki page? Once I click the wiki link I have to pull the forum up to get back or hit the back button until I get back....which isn't the end of the world obviously. And maybe it's just me but I really can't figure this wiki thing out....

I plan to add a link to the forum on the wiki page itself to make this easier. I will have to edit the HTML of the template, and hopefully get that done soon (by Tuesday or so).


Utilize chat as a "special event" to draw more folks. Open it only during storm modes and have the chat save the log for publishing in the wiki! That'd be pretty hot!

Still working on an option. We may have to do it off-site kind of like the wiki if that makes sense.


If it was posted like that I wouldn't sweat it. I was talking more about ripping it right off of a Web site. I mean we are going to have to use material from other places, I just wanted to be sure we were citing it properly. You know how the internet police from other sites can be

If you use a website such as http://www.quetext.com/ or copyscape and it does not pass, it needs to be re-written or given major credit to (links to outside sources). Kinda like when you do a book report from school.
 
Note to everyone.

If you are editing the wiki pages, please if you use pay data from sources such as weatherbell or stormvista, nothing of the Euro outside the WMO essential should be posted. Also, if you are using wxbell imagery, please provide a link to the weatherbell homepage as a source.

There's already a forum link on the wiki to help get back to the site page

Hey - Before I ZZzzzz - please check out the tropical links and see if that is better (???)
Looks great!

I will go ahead and add the link for the image I put in the clown map article.
 
So that we're not duplicating - sometime today I'll start getting the past winter weather discussions imported into Wiki - I've set a placeholder.

I'm gonna get the severe discussions into Wiki - that'll have Models, Tropical Models, Pattern, Severe and Winter discussions all archived.

If someone wants to tackle Learning or other topics as a stand alone - please do! :rolleyes:

I'm working on a page of all the NWS offices and adding links to the pages for each.
 
Update -

The Monthly and Pattern discussion archives are now consolidated into one topic (as they are all Green Tags). Someone will have to take responsibility to keep this up to date!!!

The Model sections - General, and Tropical, are complete (tropical is located inside the Tropical tab) until someone wants to add to them.

The historic Winter and Severe discussion sections are up - inside their respective tabs. Someone will have to take responsibility to keep this up to date!!!

If anyone wants to create sections for other topics (like learning or whatever) - message me and I'll explain how to set it up, if you have problems!

Having said that, may I now wish everyone

Happy Easter!!!!
 
It could get its own link somewhere since it is a large amount of definitions. It also would make it easier in page creation. However, we are going to have a much better looking wiki than the NWS eventually. :)
Concur - just didn't know if it ought to be a resource someplace ... I totally defer to you on this one! If you think it should go some place, I'll insert; if not - into the recycle !!! ;)
 
ps - if you want it in there, please tell me where you think it would fir best. A standalone link on the main page?
 
...and I have a Glossary off of WxBell but I sure don't wanna be stepping into their back yard ... if you want it I'll PM the link to you ...
 
Great job on the Wiki so far guys. I'll be eventually getting around to changing some things around to make it even easier to navigate.

Yes there is, thanks..... only thing I notice is when you use it to get back to the forum I have login again. Is it just me?

Can you delete the username Snowfan on the wiki? I had the wrong e-mail address.

Where on the Wiki? Do you mean the log-in? If so, I think you can edit your log-in info under "Update Profile" (user name and/or email). If that's not your question, please PM me or post a bit more specifics and I'll see if I can assist!
