Topic: Bee Train Wiki

Since this caught me whilst out-of-town and a bit too busy to think about it, allow me to continue.  I'll probably ramble a bit aimlessly, so don't look too hard for the point. 

So, after three months, did anything change with a logo, at least? %)

Heh, our wiki has made it to the top spot in the Google index. ^^

 Yay, Victory!!! I guess... ^^;

[Koveras]

It is. Google is the toughest search engine to get your site indexed (and linked!) by - noblesse oblige, you know... It took me almost half a year of tweaking to get MY own site in there. %)

>>claps>>  yeah!

And more amusingly, my blog is the next in line.  

Of course, it would help if anyone was actually using that search term to look for info...  The rankings for more common terms are a little worse.

The very common "el cazador de la bruja" gets my blog on the first page, but not Bee Train Fan until the second.  Not awful, and no longer cast into the "Supplemental Results" sandbox where it was before.

The Google Webmaster Tools give me lists of the "top queries" and "top queries that people actually clicked on", and those are full of weird stuff like "swords and sandels" and "altimit operating systems" ( ) and "anubituf guragief yaoi" ( )...

Though there are some neat ones like "kirika orange pekoe" and "fictionjunction yuuka wiki"...

Still, Google traffic has been pretty good, and there are a lot of variety in the terms that actually find their way here.

lol....

"altimit operating systems" ( )

ALTIMIT OS is from .hack.

"anubituf guragief yaoi" ( )...

That's what you get for not crushing the Simoun insurgents in time. XP

Say, Warchief, could you add automatic resolution of interwiki links to Wikipedia and TV Tropes? It's nothing big, I've just tested it myself at home but you need access to the database... The query is following:

REPLACE INTO wiki_interwiki ( iw_prefix, iw_url, iw_local, iw_trans ) VALUES
('w', 'http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/$1', '', '0'),
('tvt', 'http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/$1', '', '0'),
('ann', 'http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=$1', '', '0'),
('annp', 'http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=$1', '', '0'),
('btf', 'http://www.beetrainfan.org/forum/index.php?topic=$1', '', '0'),
('h', 'http://dothack.wikia.com/wiki/$1', '', '0')

That'll make editing so much easier, thanks in advance.

PS: Oh, and you'll have to change the wikitable prefix in the query to whatever you have set it at installation. ^^;

Shouldn't be too hard to add, but I've been avoiding my workstation so I haven't gotten around to it yet.  It's too nice out.   

[Fellini 8.5]

Okay, I'm supposed to be "at work", but it should be all set now.  Give it a spin!

[Koveras]

Ok, it's up and rolling, thanks a lot.
