Nice idea,
good job on making something origional. Only recommendation find a better way of handling user/passwords. Might be a bit difficult though as it will probably be all included in the wiki engine, which one are you using btw?
Thank you! And thanks to everyone for the warm welcome!
You guys rock!...or, as I'd most likely say back home, y'all rock!
Regarding SpursLine.com, I'm available for you as a resource if you need it. If you have any questions, just post something in this same thread. I'll try to field everything that I can.
For those of you who may be unfamiliar with "wikis" and their symbols, I've already started helping to format your modifications. It's not too hard. It's a lot like these little message board tags for quotes or links or little dancing pink elephants.
Like, for starters, all those broken red underlines indicate a link to a page that is empty (hasn't been created yet). Or "<toc>" creates a table of contents. Here's a nice, condense overview: WikiStyle Link
I think that people will have a good time with it. It's really fun and somehow kind of addictive. I know I've already wasted many good hours just getting it started.

Edited the Sean Marks page for a bit of fun. Good stuff, really like the site check it out people.
Thanks for the props, very cool...and great job on the Sean Marks page!
Check it out again (link). To see the 'code' just click "Edit Page" while you're logged in. See how to create that table of contents heirarchy and the table? The table of contents is like a remote control to whatever one wants, it isn't much writing, and it allows anyone to come up with any number of random headings in a player's profile.
Also, can you tell me what about the login is confusing? I'm not sure whether I can help it or not, but it never hurts to ask. We're using a PBWiki. And HTML works also...for those of you that know it.
Welcome Hillcrest!
I think your idea is very interesting. I would however discourage posting the password in the forum seeing as though anyone can enter the forum and read the topics, and there are a lot of people out there who relish the oportunity to ruin a good thing like that. Hopefully, Kori could help you distribute the password to those who are interested in adding to the wiki, doing so by request.
Thanks, Mania! Can't wait to see Manu healthy!
Actually, the whole idea is that anyone can edit. But no worries!...the system is asshole-proof and can be restored if needed. I know the PBWiki guy. He's a super-bright friend from college.
That's pretty sweet, obvious why you went with this version of wiki then
In any event the password was just a little confusing at first, 1 password for the whole site seems a little weird. But I wrote that first post before I actually logged in, from there it made more sense. I dunno how else you would do it actually, individual username/passwords might be more appropriate but chances are thats not in the software.
Still cool site, great idea and for me at least the password system isw easily overlooked. Users might just have the same reaction as me and get a little turned off, overall well done and props on the concept.
I see, then its all good
Welcome aboard. Thanks for the invitation. I hope it grows and goes well.
Thanks, MoSpur! Folks have contributed some classic stuff so far (Karl Malone page in 'Villain' section).
Happy Patty's Day everyone! I think I won't remember much after the game...
Yes! Spurs seem to be taking care of business!...even when I'm too drunk to remember.
I'm planning on adding a section to the SpursLine.com wiki about our signed, but inactive players: Mahimni, etc. Can someone tell me who all we have bouncing around the world in other leagues? Is there a resource for finding out info on all these guys...especially highlight media?
Also if any of you have other ideas or suggestions for sections, such as great places in SA to see the game, or a Silver Dancers section, please feel free to relate them to me....or, of course, you can also just go add it to the site yourself.
wow nice idea

marks has australia as country - that will raise all with NZ fans.
also where is eva section?
Chino?! That's where Ryan from the OC is from
Thanks "cheguevara"!
"Velik", this list is perfect. Does anyone know where to find media on these farm players? I have a little video on Mahimni, but nothing on the others. What would people most like to see about these guys?
I'm sure someone will post a picture or something on Eva eventually.
The video on the Memorial Day Miracle page gave me shivers! Great stuff ya'll! Keep it coming!

that Karl Malone drama queen picture really cracked me up.
the other players other than Sean have empty pages, no?
you could use the Manu jedi picture..jeje
you could use player pages from Wikipedia.org for starters.
put down the Funnel cake and learn how to use Google patna!
Point of Observation: I have a hard time believing you are a long time follower of the forum based on your easy and quick general observations of mainstay posters. Looks to me that you created a website and have scrolled over this forum a few times before and decided that you would take advantage of ST for advertising.
Hi Carina...yeah, I busted out laughing at that one also. Some people here are pretty clever. I grabbed some of the funnier pictures and put them in this season's photo gallery also. Which Manu jedi pic are you referring to?that Karl Malone drama queen picture really cracked me up.
the other players other than Sean have empty pages, no?
you could use the Manu jedi picture..jeje
So...yes, the players other than Sean and David Robinson are currently empty. Any broken red underline denotes an empty page.
If y'all have favorite players, this is the chance to pioneer their pages.
Hey Kris, I'm not sure what to tell you, man. I've been reading SpursTalk as a guest since I discovered it 3 years ago. I felt that it was reasonable to be considered a "long-time follower".
To me, SpursLine is diversionary fun...plain and simple. I think it could also be an awesome reference for Spurs fans everywhere. I don't think I even technically own anything. It's all up for grabs...by literally anyone. You seem like a sharp guy. If you can teach me how to get advertisers and all that #$@*, I'll give you the profits.

I was wondering if anyone knows the location of that one video clip of Ian Mahimni that we all watched here when the Spurs first drafted him. Do you remember? It's pretty short. He was pretty young. He dunks over some guys like a man among boys and falls at the end? I thought it was freakin' awesome.
I'd like to put that clip on the wiki in Ian's media section...anybody know? I should have saved it..
