I will migrate the Dan Katz puzzle hunt pages across to these new templates and will probably place the solution spoilers directly underneath the puzzle rather than in the discussion page. I now feel that this method (as we had it originally) is a much more intuitive structure.

'''HAPPY NEW YEAR!'''
Ideally I would love to have this wiki turn into a puzzle hunt repository of hunts and solutions (pending any issues with copyright). Dalryaug and I recently attempted Dan Katz's 2004 mini-hunt ([[Major Malfunction]]) and have placed a transcribed version with our solutions on this wiki.
Note the slightly modified wiki-structure of [[Major Malfunction]]. All puzzles are placed as subpages to one main article which allows automatic backlinks as well as the future possibility of page-based (hunt-based) permissions.

Once again I have been experimenting with wiki features and I came across http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:NavFrame. Wikipedia uses a combination of CSS and Javascript to make collapsible navigation boxes, which is perfect for spoilers (see Template:Spoiler) and conversation threads (see Template:Conversation).

The neat thing about this method is that it allows nested levels and complete wiki-text markup. An example is included below:

Spoiler warning: Solution follows
This is a spoiler
Spoiler warning: Extraneous details follow
This is a nested spoiler

I will migrate the Dan Katz puzzle hunt pages across to these new templates and will probably place the solution spoilers directly underneath the puzzle rather than in the discussion page. I now feel that this method (as we had it originally) is a much more intuitive structure.
