So in my opinion, someone that has somewhat of an idea of how all the tables and templates of Wikipedia works should start up an article on CurvedSpace. Surely there's someone amongst us that has some extensive (or at least basic) knowledge on the process. We could all pitch in as an ongoing project. Editing pages is simple enough.

Could also bring in new visitors/members.

I am familiar with the wiki editing process (Uncyclopedia ShiftyEyes_anim.gif)

Sounds good, but the wikipedia admins are pretty tough on what they let pass.

I give it 48 hours before someone wanders in and nominates the article for deletion due to "lack of notoriety" or whatever.

How much is there to write? O.o
I have trademarked the symbol: '™'. You fail at display names.



^ Thanks to Nazy for the... thingy ^

Things which you should look at:

SKoA - http://skoa.cspacezone.com/ , if you have any Age of Empires games.

The DS Garden Festival Minigame - Link , whether you play DStorm or not.

The Most Mysterious SSSS - Link For people who don't care about...things.

Like LEGO? Play Blockland!

They are most active in GWLOL, but some members have had their souls reaped by WoWlol. May they rest in peace. A few people still piddle with RuneScape, too.

And apparently, they have cookies.

Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position.

rofl.gif ... Wow, that was amazing. bluetongue.gif

Maybe if we contacted someone high up in the wikiness, we could get one done. Or we could just make an article titled "Why SeeD Is A 'Boot'", and quote Cspace's old post about it as the article. grnwink.gif

I doubt it'll work. Most wikipedia admins/whatever are powerhungry a**holes.

Either that, or we can insert ourselves into another Wikipedia page. bluetongue.gif

Hehe, we could hijack the pages for boot, seed, and peanut butter. ShiftyEyes_anim.gif

You know what?
Better yet, why doesn't someone figure out how to re-work our own Wiki for the site, instead of screwing with Wikipedia for it. Let's just get the stuff needed to make a standalone one.

MediaWiki shouldn't be -that- hard to install. Plenty of other sites besides Wikipedia use it.

But that'd really be a whole different concept from simply having an article about CurvedSpace on Wikipedia. What would our wiki cover?

Uncyclopedia is more fun, someone could make an article over there too.

I'm er... right here.


Anyway, yes, I am making one. But, a basic WikiSpaces one to start off with... then I shall see about a full blown Wiki.


EDIT: Wikispaces didn't work that well, so I will try and install MediaWiki.

But Phi's right, what would it cover?

We're a clan of people who do lots of things. Mostly hang out around forums, talk with each other, sometimes yell at each other. We use MSN emotes alot. (H)

A while back, the whole guild got started in GW(L) and pulled more than half the active members to that game.

Another section branched off and had their souls taken by WoW(U). We don't see them anymore. ;\

There's still a few stragglers who still hang around RSlol.

Everyone is made of leather, and we all form each individual component of a boot.


Why I suggest a personal Wiki for the website:
We can make articles pertaining to only us.
We can make articles pertaining to only things we'd know about.
Instead of making new members search around the board looking for information, they could just go there.
Plus, it'd be fun to phantom edit some articles there on random days.
