FAQ, Cookbook, Examples
Provide one centralised area with a list of examples instead of three separate places where questions are answered on the front page. Preferably categorized like the cookbook is at the moment. Manadar 11:49, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

mdiesel wrapper
I am considering adding a Wrapper page, and copy + paste that thread into here. It would be much easier than constntly having to find the thread (I'm not sure how it didn't get sticky). I am busy compiling the page now, so that'll get done. I think it will be too long to put in examples or udf's.
- There is already a wrapper page created and maintained by Valuater: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=19370 . It would be good to have that ported to the Wiki. Oh, and please sign your posts with four tilde (~) signs. Manadar 11:02, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Article management
Adjusted the Delete template a bit. So a optional reason can be added to the Delete tag (see doc: Template:Delete). Also added a auto category to it (Category:Candidates for deletion) for easier management by admins. --.MvGulik. 23:34, 8 November 2012 (GMT)
Wiki headers (Jaberwocky6669)
Just in case. Wiki headers are not just text headers, but also serve as edit blocks. Or: Two or more users can edit the same page without conflicts when they all are editing a different section. (they are also useful as additional edit description when only editing a header/section instead of the whole page.) --.MvGulik. 00:12, 9 November 2012 (GMT)
Is this a response to some question I had forgotten about? Jaberwocky6669 (talk) 20:31, 10 November 2012 (GMT)
- No. It was in responds to this this edit. Was just wondering if you already knew those facts about headers. (You can delete this section, as its just a informational note.) --.MvGulik. 21:17, 10 November 2012 (GMT)
I see. Thanks for the heads up and I'll keep that in mind. Jaberwocky6669 (talk) 00:27, 11 November 2012 (GMT)
Targeted for termination: Function_list pages
(intended for objections or alternative usage ideas)
Due to the direct linking to the official online manual. The old Function_list sub-pages have lost there usage. As such there targeted for termination. (lets say around next weekend.)
To see the function list page in its old state click here.
--.MvGulik. 00:39, 12 November 2012 (GMT)
- Done: Removed most Function_List pages.
- Done: Removed broken redirects.
- Done: Adjust broken links to online documentation pages. (//www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions)
- todo: Last left-overs.

Forum links
Looked at normalizing all forum links on some wiki page. But it turns out that there are more ways than I initially expected. (intended to remove addition forum topic title part from links, but that seems not needed.)
- The following ways all work.
- ../forum/index.php?showtopic=<topic number>
- ../forum/index.php?findpost=<post number> (for post that are not the first in a topic)
- ../forum/index.php?showtopic=<topic number>#entry<post number> (for keeping the related topic number with the post-link.)
- ../forum/topic/<topic number>-/#entry<post number> (note the lonely '-' character. That's the only part that's needed. The rest of what would be the topic title text is ignored.)
Rendering the title part on forum links down to additional, none critical, information (edit mode).
Personally favor the two first one's (as general standard). But there is no real/direct need for any change.

SPAM
If there is anything to do in relation to spam cases other then undoing them. Feel free to add it here (or not of course). Where there is one, more are are surly to follow. I just undid one, but I'm currently not sure if I do any more. --.MvGulik. 05:02, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
