Canon talk:List of Birthright Wiki articles

How this Page might be updated
This page will not be updated automatically. Here is one way to do it manually. Please feel free to change this section, if you find a more elegant solution, but this one is at least easier than editing each link individually.

&bull; On Birthright Wiki’s All articles - first 500, mark all while holding the "Ctrl" key and copy it to Word. &bull; Repeat this for the following pages of articles and copy them below the first one. &bull; Mark everything and switch of the numbering in Word. &bull; Copy all of this from Word to column B into an Excel sheet. &bull; Copy-past column B to column D. &bull; Mark column B and let Excel replace every " " (space) by "_". &bull; Type "[ http://www.birthright.net/forums/showwiki.php?title= " into column A and draw it down, so that you have that entry in front of each entry in column B. &bull; Type " " (space) into column C and draw down. &bull; Type "]]  " into column E and draw down. &bull; Copy column A through E into Windows Notepad. &bull; Mark one of the resulting spaces between the columns and let Windows Notepad replace it by "" (nothing). &bull; Mark everything here, replacing the existing list with new one. &bull; Update date in "Statusdate" template.

Why?
Why should we contain this page when a link to their /Special:AllPages page works just as well? This seems like pointless duplication of data and can easily go out of date. --Havvy (talk) 05:10, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Because of the Search function. If I am looking for "Avani", I will now find out, that Avani does not have her own article here (yet), but that Birthright Wiki has one and how I get there. I don't think that a link to /Special:AllPages can provide that, but if there was a way it could, that would be great and save the work I started here for the future. - If you like, please also have a look at Canon talk:List of Forgotten Realms Wiki articles or Canon talk:List of the Great Library of Greyhawk articles.
