Hello,
I am completely new to this kind of stuff.
I read some help pages, and undestood what a category was (a native Namespace), and what a Namespace was (a type of page).
I also learn what a template was, and read the puzzle template.
I am trying to understand the relationship between puzzles, people, and categories.
Browsing the wiki a bit, it seemed to me that there were no sub-categories. Instead, Disentanglement puzzles, or Vinco, for example, are top categories.
There are pages that have the same name, that are categorized respectively as a Puzzle type, and a Designer , Manufacturer, and People. These pages redirect to the categories, that contains the main text.
Setting a designer or manufacturer name in the puzzle template automatically creates the link between the puzzle page and the category, provided that the name was written exactly as the category title.
So, in order to add new people, we need to create both the category and the page. The category must contain the summary, and the page must belong to the people category, plus manufacturer or designer, and redirect to the category.
Is it correct so far ?
