The format of a show page is as follows:
Title[edit]
The title of your page should include the following information, in order:
- City and state (or country, if outside the US)
- Date of show, in YYYY-MM-DD format
For instance, the page for the show on April 3, 2008, in Northampton, Massachusetts, is titled, Northampton, MA: 2008-04-03.
Contents[edit]
Be sure to include
[[Category:Shows]]
or if the show is in the future,
[[Category:Upcoming Shows]]
The first heading of your page should be the city and state again, as follows:
==Northampton, MA ==
(This is done to make it play nicely with the Shows calendar.)
Next, include the name of the venue, and a link to the venue's website would be nice, too. If the show is upcoming and tickets are available online, a link to the box office is always a plus.
If JoCo performed with any supporting acts, name them, and provide a link to their JoCopedia page if one exists. Or if one doesn't, and someone may make it.
Setlists[edit]
Setlists are good things to have, although at times they are unavailable. Links to recordings of the show should be included with the setlist.
For example, here are a few lines of the setlist from the Los Angeles, CA: 2006-10-09 show.
- Setlist:
The code to produce this is as follows:
* Setlist: # [[The Future Soon]] - [http://youtube.com/watch?v=1BmK8PYm504 video] # [[Skullcrusher Mountain]] - [http://youtube.com/watch?v=z53WLtowYBo video] # [[First of May]] - [http://youtube.com/watch?v=gRhPeJ3uzOc video] # [[Shop Vac]] - [http://youtube.com/watch?v=GhSSiKFyg1I video]
Shows calendar[edit]
To make sure the show is linked to from the Shows calendar, do the following:
- As above, make sure the first heading of the show page is its city and state.
- Find the date of the show on the shows calendar and click "Add show."
- Edit the resulting page and make it a redirect to your show page, as follows:
#REDIRECT [[Title of your show page]]
