I originally sent this to the Rabbit mailing list;
after some thought I reckoned that people on the Fluxx list would be interested
in it as well, so here it is. My apologies to those who get both
mailing lists.

Subject: New wiki page: Blanxx sorted by Author FYI:
I have just completed a new page for the Rabbit
Wiki: a page which lists all the Fluxx Blanxx ideas sorted according to their
author. The page is linked at the bottom of this page: http://rabbits.continuation.org/wiki/Suggested_Ideas_for_Fluxx_Blanxx_cards
Follow the link and you will see how it is
formatted.
I did this because I wanted to be able to see all
of one author's card ideas together, since there is often a close relationship
between them, especially between Goals and Keepers. I did not copy all the
card definitions -- that would be even more labor-intensive than it was, as well
as inefficient and contrary to good programming standards. So I first laid
the groundwork by placing a manual anchor for each card in the pages which list
the cards by type. Then I did the Author list by just linking to all the
anchors.
Check it out! I hope it is useful. I'm
open to comments and suggestions. (And of course, the pages can be edited
by anyone with a login.)
Now that the infrastructure is in place for
the links, here are some projects that others may want to
try:
1. Of course, I recommend that any new
Blanxx entries also include an anchor for linking.
2. The Chronological Blanks Card Suggestions
page could be changed to have just links, rather than repeated definitions.
3. New indexes could be made, referring to
the cards by theme (e.g. food), or behavior (e.g. Actions affecting
Keepers).
Regards,
Bryan
