I expect this page will eventually become a link page, as each topic is moved off onto its own page? Because I've been creating the "World" pages ([http://wiki.pastutopia.com/index.php?title=Palindra Palindra] and [http://wiki.pastutopia.com/index.php?title=Central Central] so far), there is currently some doubling up of information. My expectation is that organisations (like the IDS) should get their own page, so I tried being brief in their descriptions on those pages. Is it possible to have a standard brief description (linkable) for things? E.g. like the IDS gets 'IDS (link) - Inter-Dimension Security. Self-appointed interdimensional police, originating from "Central".' on every page (first an IDS page needs to be created?).--[[User:WestleyRoberts|WestleyRoberts]] ([[User talk:WestleyRoberts|talk]]) 10:51, 24 July 2018 (PDT)

General Comments

I expect this page will eventually become a link page, as each topic is moved off onto its own page? Because I've been creating the "World" pages (Palindra and Central so far), there is currently some doubling up of information. My expectation is that organisations (like the IDS) should get their own page, so I tried being brief in their descriptions on those pages. Is it possible to have a standard brief description (linkable) for things? E.g. like the IDS gets 'IDS (link) - Inter-Dimension Security. Self-appointed interdimensional police, originating from "Central".' on every page (first an IDS page needs to be created?).--WestleyRoberts (talk) 10:51, 24 July 2018 (PDT)
