Community Central:Forum Topics

The purpose of this page is to:
 * Describe how the topics function is used on the Community Central Forum
 * Detail how new topics can be created
 * Provide a dynamic list of existing topics, to help avoid creation of duplicate topics

Generally, topics are created and maintained by users who frequently help out in the Forum, Community Central admins and Wikia Community Support staff. Please contact one of those individuals if you have questions or would like to help out.

Topics on Community Central Forum
The Forum feature uses existing article names as topics, to connect threads on the same subject to one another, and to the article(s) discussed in those threads. Since main namespace articles are somewhat rare here on Community Central, we are using the method described below to make use of the topic function. This will allow threads to be grouped and browsed by topic.

Creating new topics

 * 1) Create a new page in the main namespace with name XYZ (example), and minimal content
 * 2) Move the page to the Topic namespace. You must leave a redirect.
 * 3) The result will be a Forum topic page Topic:XYZ that will list all threads with that topic added.
