Talk:Zones

I don't think that all the equipment needs to be listed here, just the major stuff that is actually important to have training on. The map could use less colors-when each color/area is only including one zone, it's harder to read. CNC+machine shop combined, compute zone+ common area, etc.

I (Greg) disagree, we need a [place where most equipment including powered hand tools is listed, with all the tool removal that has occurred unannounced, this is needed as much for warden sanity as member users. How else do they know when planning a project what is available.

From Terry - "We are talking about using transclusion to indicate the status of a piece of equipment on both a master page and an equipment page. In order to make 1 master entry and N slave entries. I think that is a good idea, but we also need to use the same idea for the listing of equipment on this Zones page. This equipment listed on this page(Zones) should be the sum of the equipment listed on the individual zone page. Single equipment pages, if available (since there are more equipment listed in the Zones page list than have a standalone page), should also reflect any master information on the Zones page. Currently the list on the ZONES page of equipment does not match the equipment listed in individual zone pages.

So how do we lay this out with transclusion? Which page, ZONES, individual zone, equipment page, or some other subpage should have the master info, and how do we program this up in the wiki?"
