I was wondering if the wonderful staff here had every thought of setting up a wiki for the Disco Universe. My proposal would be that it would include information for freelancer, discovery, and allow people to upload rp data as well. A massive project yes but I'm sure many would be willing to help. I for one would even be willing to help do it, and if we dont have the space we could always use wikia.com



Feedback and thoughts on this idea?!

Already one well underway. I'm sure Unselie won't mind offers of help though.

We used to have one, but I think it got shut down.

I think someone is creating a new one though.

If it's necessary, I can set it up on the same host where this forum resides. It's not a huge problem. Maybe ship/system developers would be interested in sharing the news and knowledge? For them, it should be more convenient than posting on forums.

As for general information pages, I'm afraid not many people would contribute.

People are welcome to work on it.
The RP side has flaws, simply because people to often rp ca catgirl or a dragon.

Maybe clarify what you exactly mean by general information? I could spend some of my free time for help..

EDIT: Checking the link Unselie provided..

Well, we would probably need a thread for editing the character section for example on that site, wherein people would post their characters and we would edit the section as the official characters of the Discovery RP 24/7. We would need to do that on Disco forums though, for the feedback from the people since it would be the easiest way to deal with it. Posted character names would be added as the official characters of Discovery. Thus, a similar method could be applied for the other sections. Yet, the project needs to be evaluated and observed in details to settle on the most efficient working method. And I would personally like to avoid the faction tags but only the names..

On the uncharted lagoons of anguish, I sail with a canoe made of my sins.

Unselie my biggest feedback so far is two things; one you are using wikispaces which sadly has those nasty adds and second the wiki looks quite plain. Like I said in our PM I'd be more than happy to help, even transferring data if we could get one on wikia.com or if as Igliss has offered he sets one up, we put it here. Igliss if you do set one up Mediawiki would be the best bet professionally speaking (that used by wikipedia).

Kress; General Information would be pages focusing on planets, vanilla ships, houses, etc. Igliss I think that it could be done if you have the dedicated people willing to work as a team and do it. So far the response seems positive here and I'm sure we could muster a team together to work on one, even a beta version at least.

As for Character Pages, we can easily come up with a template for people to use. Also we can require people to set up an account in order to add pages, thus making it that much more likely that the characters added are actual players. There are so many options for a wiki community and how to handle it.

Like I said, I'm all for it and would be willing to help however asked.
