New Wiki

The new, shiny
wiki is up and running, replacing the
old wiki and the
old documentation. (No, I'm not moving over pages from the old wiki automatically. There is way too much unnecessary crap there, like a bad attempt at wikifying the entire documentation).
The old documentation has been automatically imported, of course. It not as good as the old documentation in some respects, but better in others. I finally decided that I don't feel like spending too much time on boring infrastructure (i.e. making documentation generators), so we'll have to make do with existing software.
Finally, I don't claim that the Wiki in its current form is perfect nor complete, but I personally like it so far. I hope you will too.

Rearrange the sidebar to have documentation more towards the top.
Should be ordered by importance (left->right and top->bottom). And I find documentation pretty important.

Looks good!
I've already imported
MiddleClass and
MindState!
3 questions:
- Is there any way to create a "table of contents", like in the old wiki? (In other wikis this is accomplished by writing {{toc}}
- The "Category" links don't seem to work correctly. See
http://love2d.org/wiki/TestGame, at the bottom it says "Category:
Games" - Games is red. Shouldn't that link be pointing to
Games?
- It seems that it takes some time to refresh the Libraries / Games pages.

Update about the table of contents:
This article says I should be able to write __TOC__ or __FORCETOC__ at the top of the article in order to see a table of contents. I've tried both, also between curlies {__TOC__} but didn't work.

Under the hood still lies Mediawiki, the same engine that powers the old wiki and Wikipedia.

Categories are special pages, so the page Category:Games has nothing to do with the page Games.
Lastly: is it not possible to get an umlaut in the title of the wiki pages? I miss them.

- There seems to be no way of disabling the TOC by default, so I disabled it always. Markup magic will not help you, since it's disabled in the skin.
- There is a difference between Category:Games and just Games.
- Yes, but I guess that's not a big problem.
EDIT: Moved documentation portlet closer to the top.

Nice! Could you make the sidebar link text bigger though? It's so tiny on my browser compared to all the other text. It's hard to click the right link. Seems it should be a few points bigger to match the rest of the pages.

Somehow the page Pröxima doesn't get automaticly added to the gamelist. Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
