[OpenGuides-London] Confused about Locales
by Kai Michael Poppe 07 Aug '05

07 Aug '05

Good morning, while doing some renaming I stumbled about something... The Pages 1.. Adchaya, SW19 1AZ 2.. Princess Of Wales, SW19 3BP 3.. The Sultan (Wimbledon) 4.. Trafalgar Freehouse, SW19 2JY 5.. Watch Me, SW19 3BP All have "Merton" and "South Wimbledon" as Locale, where "South Wimbledon" naturally is a subpart of "Wimbledon" (The Sultan only hast Wimbledon and South Wimbledon, yet it seemes to be "just around the corner" of Adchaya, which is supposed to be in "Merton")... Confused? Me too, so I was wondering whether you could shed some light on that, and tell me which Locale would be best suitable for these pages. Regards and Thanks Kai Michael Poppe

[OpenGuides-London] Limiting the number of categories and locales that can be entered
by Rev Simon Rumble 25 Jul '05

25 Jul '05

London has just had someone enter a zillion categories: http://london.openguides.org/index.cgi?id=Garden_Centre_At_Oriental_City%2C… I think we need a way to limit this, otherwise you end up with a zillion stubs floating around.

It's been a year since the last activity on this front, so I'd like to re-mention the existence of the OpenGuides trade mark fund appeal. http://openguides.org/trademark.html -- Earle Martin http://downlode.org/ http://purl.oclc.org/net/earlemartin/

Hi I have noticed that the RSS feed (for recent changes) has upset Thunderbird. It says this is not a valid RSS feed. The most recent one that it accepted is : Could someone try it with another RSS reader ?

[OpenGuides-London] #REDIRECTs and show pages linking
by IvorW 20 Jul '05

20 Jul '05

It's nice to see the redirects working again :). However, one thing just struck me. Since the old page is passed into CGI as param old_id, this could be used to make "Show pages linking" show all pages pointing to the original page. This is posted to the London list, as I think that the "Show pages linking" is London template specific. Ivor.

I would suggest putting them on your home node, or perhaps creating a node [[Shermozle/food]], perhaps in category personal recommendations You could also tag each recommendation with a link to [[Shermozle/food]]. You could then query "show pages linking here". I was playing around with this in the Grubstreet days. On a copy of the wiki, I set up [[IvorW/Recommends]], and using links to generate a reverse index on this. Nothing's set in concrete. If you want to try something, have a go.

[OpenGuides-London] Simon's guide to London food
by Rev Simon Rumble 06 Jul '05

I was thinking of starting a node that describes my favourite places to eat in London. This would be, obviously, more subjective than what should be in the restaurant nodes themselves. How should I do this? A category? And how should it be linked in? Perhaps we should have a category of "personal guides" or something?

There will undoubtedly be plenty of excellent information on other sites.

Anyone know what London's demonstration sport will be?
