Any suggestions for how articles should be titled, structured, etc.?
Quiky and I were thinking "Top Gear 01x01" and then like a right-bar box thingy. EDIT: example -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartman_Gets_an_Anal_Probe

Um...can you expand on what, exactly, is meant by "right-bar box thingy"?

It'd list season #, episode #, air date, guest star, ratings, and maybe a few other things. Actual cars reviewed, etc. would go into the main content area on the left.

I like how all the episodes are also listed there with a link to the next/previous season/series at the bottom.

yeah, we also need to determine how the episode content should be organized.

I made the 10x07 article according to 01x02's article. Please edit it if it's wrong
![]() Also, I don't watch the SIARPC sections, so I wrote only basic info. Someone who has seen that section, please fill up the missing parts, thank you! |

I made a fairly brief but detailed review of Series 1 a bit ago. I can post it up here, but not atm, as I am not at home.

I had just seen 2x07, so I added an entry for it. No screenshots, though, since it was a crappy Jabba rip.

Whoever's adding screenshots for the episodes, please remember that if the previous image is bigger in height than the next, it jumps out of the area and onto the right hand side, try and organize them in ascending order of size, or resize before uploading. 1x01 and 1x03 had that problem

Just spotted the wiki for the first time, looks great. i'd be more than happy to contribute screenshots from the 700Mb rips i have (using PowerDVD captures) and add them to 10x09, 10x10 and any others.
i'd also be happy to start off the pages about those episodes. i assume it's ok for anyone to edit...? status: 15:22 - adding info to 10x09 17:26 - finished 10x09 and 10x10

this is a bump because i've got a question. which do you prefer?
this: ![]() or this?: ![]() personally i prefer the latter because it looks neater and the screenshots fit better. also it allows the break to be removed from the gallery. I've set my articles up like this and changed a couple of others, but i want to know which one you all prefer (particularly Quiky)

why are the screenshots like that? what happened to the normal thumbnail mode, where the caption is part of it?

Yeah, go for it. The CSS code isn't being very functional, and we don't need to list the episodes out on every page.

How about replacing the Written By section in the box on the right with a link to the torrent?

No, no links to the torrent. I don't want it in two places or subject to vandalism.
Only links to the episode page on the main site please.
