Current Structure

This is the current structure of the wiki. In these early days it is subject to change every so often.

Important Notes, Read Before Editing (AKA Ha, Who Am I Kidding)

  • March 21: when linking to any of the Beat The Boots albums, please link like this: [[The Ark (BTB)]]. Note the space and "(BTB)" appended to the title.
  • March 20: watch out for conflicting names! For instance, with an album like The Man From Utopia, there is also a track of the same name. Solution: when linking to the TRACK, link like this: [[The Man From Utopia (The Track)]] - note the space and "The Track" between brackets. Linking to the album can then remain as normal, like this: [[The Man From Utopia]]. When linking to a track, always have a look if there's no album of the same name!
  • March 19: disabled anonymous ("not logged in") editing. You must now have an account (and be logged in) to edit/create pages. This was done mainly to prevent wiki-spam/trolling.
  • March 18: New categories.
    • "Discography", "Zappa Per Album", "Tracks" and "Supporting Cast" are now categories. "Zappa Per Album" and "Tracks" are subcategories of the "Discography". What this means when editing:
      • For editing "Zappa Per Album" pages, tag that page as follows: [[Category:Discography]] [[Category:Zappa Per Album]].
      • For editing "Track" pages, tag the page as follows: [[Category:Discography]] [[Category:Tracks]].
      • For editing "Supporting Cast" pages, tag the page as follows: [[Category:Supporting Cast]].
    • Since I'm still adding categories and don't want to rush things: please don't edit any pages other than those that fall under "Zappa Per Album", "Tracks", "Musicians" and "Supporting Cast" for the time being. Thanks!
  • Please read the updated Naming Conventions before adding/editing articles.
