Mars trilogy
[edit]The three parts of the Mars trilogy don't have individual pages. Red and Green Mars are redirects and Blue Mars is a dab page. I guess that should be changed in the template, but I'm not sure how.--ospalh (talk) 07:12, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
Other problems
[edit]The Three Californias novels and The Martians don't have individual pages, too. I'm not quite bold enough to just change the template, but maybe we could change it to something like this.--ospalh (talk) 07:50, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- Is this a problem? The way it is now, if these articles are ever split into individual book articles (I think they should be), then the template will automatically link to the correct places. Staecker (talk) 11:39, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure. That's why i didn't do it. There was another problem, though. The "The Gold Coast"-link was wrong and the Blue Mars went to a dab page. I've created two redirects, The Gold Coast (novel) and Blue Mars (novel). At the very least we need a similar redirect for The Martians. The Martians (collection)? The Martians (story collection)? Is there some rule what we should use here?
- The thing that i don't really like is that you have four links in one line and they all point to the same thing. That's what i wanted to fix/avoid. When seperate article pages become available, we could always change that back.--ospalh (talk) 13:14, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- Forget about the serch for redirects. The way these navboxes work, you should use piped links and do fix redirects. Only that way the links to the page where you are become unlinked. I've fixed that for the trilogies mentioned.--ospalh (talk) 13:27, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- OK then- not a big deal to change things around if the articles get split. Staecker (talk) 13:49, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
Antarctica
[edit]Shouldn't Antarctica be grouped with the Science in the Capital series? They are set in the the same continuity, and share characters. Senix (talk) 07:27, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
