Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!

General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

Check it out here → wiki.StarTrek.website

Goals for this wiki:

To serve as a hub and bridge for fans to find and connect with online resources of the broader Trek fandom and Fediverse. Think: stuff that's not a good fit for Memory Alpha or Wikipedia.

Some cool pages:

Want to contribute?

We're accepting pitches for community resources that people may want to contribute. Here are examples of sorts of things we're looking for, but we're open to any idea, it doesn't even need to be about Star Trek!

  • Guide to the best LGBT episodes
  • Other good Star Trek websites (Ex Astris, TrekMovie, etc)
  • Where to stream Trek
  • S-tier blank Trek meme templates

If you'd like a page of your own, or want help expanding/maintain existing pages, comment here or message an admin with your idea and we can get you set up with a Wiki account. Cheers!

Cheers

I’d be willing to offer my services to develop a LCARS inspired theme. Admittedly, my eyes are more on the Lemmy side than the Wiki side, but I’m not picky.

@Wooster That sounds like an amazing idea! Since it runs on bookstack i would have to learn how to theme it but i would love to help out.

[–] Wooster@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ditto, to be honest. My background is primarily in theming for PhpBB, Drupal, and Wordpress to an extent. Bookstack is entirely new to me, and the tactics it implements are surprisingly streamlined if, not what I’m specifically used to.

LCARS also presents unique challenges since practically everything can be done in CSS (which presumably makes it a perfect match for bookstack) but you kinda have to trick CSS into doing what you want with LCARS more creative aspects.

But, assuming we get approval, I’d enjoy collaborating. I’ve always done theming solo, so it’d be a new experience.

I'm into this idea! What would you guys need from us? I've opened registration for the wiki so you can make editor accounts, but the theming seems to be largely on the backend.

[–] Wooster@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

We’ll need access to the style sheets, bare minimum. (Some robust systems grant this via admin panel, but normally it’s done via file system/template files.) So SFTP access would be appreciated. Also, do you know if the wiki/Lemmy has a concept of restricting theme use by role?
