I'm trying to turn Atari 5200 into an index.
Done.

Please properly Red Link all the games first so that if pages are created later they are automagically indexed.

Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickThey don't actually get indexed unless one re-edits the page afterwards. Indexing is not automagical.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI have pages up (I didn't add them, so I don't know how it's done), specifically Recoil and Hope Comes to Brockton Bay, where secondary pages (Characters and the like) aren't indexed. How do I index those?
By which I mean, what are the exact steps I need to go through. Including the *specific* page I need to go to in order to do the indexing. Assume I know nothing.
Find the appropriate parent article, such as the main Character Sheets index, go to the proper medium subpage, and add a bullet with the link to your article in the proper order.

"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"I created Wallbangers for the 50 Shades of Grey books and put a link to it under the Wallbangers/Literature page. That didn't count as indexed, but I couldn't find a Literature list under the Index-Index for Wall Bangers, so I put it under Film. The page is now listed as indexed, but the Wallbangers page for 50 Shades is not in the typical Darth Wiki gray-red tone as the others. Did I make a mistake in the indexing process?
When I created a recap page for 3-2-1 Penguins!, I created pages for three of the episodes. However, I can't find a way to index the episodes' pages.
The main Recap page needs indexing turned on, there.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanOkay, how do I turn on indexing on a recap page?
So, I created a Page for Fox-Face and Flames but I have trouble indexing. I put it on the Fanfic/Film index page. I can't see the index below the page for the fanfic. How to fix that?
Moved it to its proper place in the index. That seemed to fix it. Oh, and you should really do something about those zero content examples.

(Annoyed grunt)I request to turn Magazine.Nakayoshi into an index, per the precedent of Manga anthologies. This has been discussed on Ask The Tropers recently.
Scientia et Libertas | Per Aspera ad Astra NovaThanks for your correction. I knew this thread; I wasn't expecting its title is now a Nonindicative Title.
Scientia et Libertas | Per Aspera ad Astra NovaSorry if there's a better place, but I don't understand how indexing works in regards to Fan fic pages.
I create a work, a fan fic page. That page now exists. Okay, so then I head to Index-Index, find 'Fanfics'. Simple. But then there's categories of fanfic.
What if my story doesn't fit into a single category? And then beyond that, I look at the fics that are linked in each category, and some are quite specific. I don't see how this "indexes" the page. Some of the entires aren't links to actual workpages, they're just brief descriptions of what fanfics for a particular genre are like.
I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!It's simple, really. You go to FanFic.Fan Fics and find the categor(ies) which your fic fits. If it's more than one, then categorize it under both. Then click on the link to that category, scroll to whatever show the fic is about, and stick a link to your fic under the link for that show. That indexes it.
Thank you, I'll try that right away. But, it's just, the How Indexing Works page doesn't guide me there, that throws me off quite a bit, and I imagine it would others as well:
- I started here.
- That page leads me here by clicking on Index-Index.
- I didn't find the page you linked to on that list. I found FanFic, which brought me here.
- It doesn't bring me here, which is what you showed me, and looks like the proper page.
I don't know, this throws me off a bit, couldn't it be a little more intuitive? I wouldn't have thought to just search Fan Fics / Fan Fics after reading How Indexing Works. I can't find any link to that page from there.
I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!The problem is that Fan Fic and FanFic.Fan Fics are different pages. There is a topic here about merging them.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI have a works page that refuses to index properly. I keep trying to add it to the Pokémon fan works index, but the page still says it's not indexed.
Well, I tried null-editing both the index and the page (because I couldn't remember exactly how null edits can fix indexing issues), and that didn't help. Just letting anyone know who tries that first.
"Jack, you have debauched my sloth."Fixed. For future reference, check the page type and make sure indexing is on. That was broken on the previous design, but it works now.
(x5)
Just wanted to say thanks. I remembered this page, managed to index the work page I wanted.
I'M MR. MEESEEKS, LOOK AT ME!
Yeah, it still is. I was referring to these in ^^, as well as YMMV tabs.
