Thread: "The Wiki Crew proudly annouce the Straight Razor Database

I think we really should add the name of the razor to the title. Or at least make sure there is one in the actual article, because we will - at a later stage - pull the list of razors from the individual articles. But "Wade&Butcher (clv003)" simply will not help much when people want to look for a specific W&B

Sure! Thanks!! ..but even so, there are blades with no model name. An indexing number is required.

[Can I ask you a suggestion: should I write "tang" or "shank" for the part where there is the mark?]

This is great! Thank you Robin for your undying obsession to get a form extension of some sort! Thank you Ben for finding one that works! Thanks to da bomb and of course to Lynn for making it all possible!

Now excuse me while I go play in the wiki

Well, you'll have to thank Ben, because he succeeded where I failed - miserably.

On a tangent: Pages in category "Straight Razor Database": The following 34 pages are in this category, out of 34 total. Go check it out: Category:Straight Razor Database - Straight Razor Place Wiki

[Update]: The following 41 pages are in this category, out of 41 total.

1.
I fear that it is not evident enough that to respect and give sense to the alphabetical index, the Last Name should be inserted before the first name or the initial of the first name.

2.
Would it make sense to introduce the new field Point? Sometimes you find info about the point in Grind, others in Size, others (as I do) in Notes.

Duly noted. Give me 1 min.

20:19:06 < BeBerlin@> Slart-Work: Add a "point" field.

I think tonight is a very good time to come to the chat.

Just for the record:

And: Thanks to Ben for updating the input form. We now have point and other stuff.

P.S. The following 62 pages are in this category, out of 62 total.

I hope you do not mind that I added some info to existing pages and renamed a few to comply with the naming policy, and/or corrected incorrect names.

Thanks Sparq! This is exactly what anyone should be able to do in the wiki: review, edit, refine, supplement, etc both to content and to a certain extent, organization

I accidentally posted a razor marked Wostenholm & Sons to the Wostenholm & Son manufacturer label. Should I note that the example razor is mis-spelled, or is a variation; create a new page titled Wostenholm & Sons; or revert the page title back to Wostenholm & Sons?

I already fixed that.
