User talk:Vartemp/BS01 History

From BIONICLEsector01

Torritorri's page holds a curiosity: an old MC list affixed to the Wiki's nav template! That's weird. ζoxHistories External Image

I know. I noticed that on a few old user pages from 2006 I looked through yesterday. Just goes to show how much has changed. --Vartemp 20:50, 16 September 2014 (CEST)

In reply to your BZPower message: I can't figure out anything about the template on Ikki's page. It looks like something he just did himself, so it probably didn't have a template name. You can follow his archives as the template grew (even including TNU) until it was replaced with a staff nav and a banner. On what I started this page with: following Torritorri's page revisions shows us some of the history of the MC template. It looks like it is (unsurprisingly) nearly as old as the Wiki itself, and evolved into its standalone form somewhere between April 06 and July 07. Be nice if we could find the Wayback for the MC template itself... Also of note: a Bionicleman archive. Staff template is divided up for the Civil War, using their story names =D Finally, you might like this link to the last archive of BS01, and not BS01 Wiki.

Oh, the things you find on accident while looking for something specific.
This is in a PM I sent you on BZP, but I would probably go ahead and ask Swert or Dor if you really want info on Ikki and Syn. I never met them myself. ζoxHistories External Image
I just found the archived version of the MC template here. Seems like the classicnav was actually part of the MC template. Strange. --Vartemp 15:44, 17 September 2014 (CEST)

Wait, whaaaat? O_o Huh, if you go to the old archives of Tahu, you can find an old ClassicNav, with no Contributors. Seems like it was more the other way around: the contributors template had a Nav. ζoxHistories External Image
