CwDA: the Shatranjian Shooters. (Updated!) Missing description (8x8, Cells: 64) [All Comments] [Add Comment or Rating]

@Fergus:

I started making articles for the CwDA armies I designed, and to conform with the presentation of the Shatranjian Shooters I submitted it under the name "CwDA: the Bent Bozos". This, however, as as the unfortunate consequence that the upload directory for that article gets the name 'MScwda:-the-bent-bozos', i.e. with the colon in it. And the colon acts as a separator in the Interactive Diagram, so I cannot use the piece images I uploaded there in the I.D. I want to include in the article.

Is there a way to fix this? I suppose I could easily rename that upload directory, deleting the colon from its name, but then the on-line file manager probably would not be able to find it anymore.

Would it be possible to make the script that derives the name of the upload directory from the variant name suppress non-alphabetic characters? Or would that break many existent articles?

BTW, I forgot how I can reach an article that is still private. The Bent Bozos are not in the list of my Unpublished Submissions.
