Talk:Current events

From Holocron - Star Wars Combine
Jump to: navigation, search

I assume that this page was supposed to be an equivalent of the current events portal on Wikipedia. I think that we should create/link to a few pages that address current events IC and allow for us to coordinate in keeping the Holocron up-to-date. For example, the dash for the hidden systems (when it gets restarted) should be accorded a temporary name like 'Year 13 Astrographic Exploration' until some faction officially coins a term/name for it. Canon-wise, there were the periods of time known as the Expansionist Era, Great Manifest Period, Kymoodon Era and Great Exploration. Events are sorely needed to tie into the existing articles and infoboxes we have so far such as event field in the Infobox:Sector. Any comments or suggestions? --Raith Starlight 01:57, 10 February 2012 (GMT)

I like the idea to have a "current events" section, but I wonder, if it may not be a good idea to have it automatically populated from the GNS. I will discuss this with a developer.--Dreighton 18:53, 30 March 2012 (GMT)
Hmm. In the interim/meantime, perhaps we could redirect this page to Timeline? It is currently a dead link. -- Rupert Havok 21:30, 31 January 2014 (GMT)
It is a dead link, but why not provide a few links to the biggest discussions and latest GNS articles over the last few months? It doesn't need to be daily like the Wikipedia page, but a lot of newbies might try here for a news update.--Wolfgang von Schlavendorf 15:00, 3 February 2014 (GMT)
