Astral Serpent Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Why not just make a JK-series wiki? Pretty much the same thing.
afi Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 I approve dat "history"-ideaEdit: And a wiki would be awesomesauce tbh
MountainDew Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Yeh, wiki with all these history, people and stuff.
eezstreet Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 I actually agree on the wiki. If you don't intend to @@Kannon, I just might make one here on JKH o_o Like this one, except actually actively used.A wiki? In my JKHub? Notbadactually.jpg

Holonet is pretty nice, but most of the pages/categorys doesn't work or it says "Sorry, this page is not yet ready." =p
Jango40 Posted January 4, 2013 Posted January 4, 2013 Holonet is pretty nice, but most of the pages/categorys doesn't work or it says "Sorry, this page is not yet ready." =pAnd It's only a Jedi academy wiki. At least Jedi Outcast if not the whole series should be included
Astral Serpent Posted January 5, 2013 Author Posted January 5, 2013 Caelum sure does like splitting threads. Include all JK-series gamesCanon and non canon, like community events (e.g THE GREAT DDOSINGS OF 2012)Guides etc. are covered by JKH's tutorial sectionSexI just woke up. MUG likes this
eezstreet Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 include mods as well, with a master list to all of them, so that each one has a detailed documentation to themthat way, people can read more about the mods, with a mostly objective opinion about them and develop their own ideas, similar to how Wikipedia works, with a "reception" category explaining how mods have been received everywhere.the links category I think doesn't have enough description to the mods, and it really doesn't give you any sort of idea about the mod at all. if we put a KOTF link on there, people would think "wow, this is a really cool mod! i should get this!" without realizing the facts. objective viewpoints i think have a large potential in the mod community that's also not to include the clans and stuff that people will find out about, and explore the deep history within the clans of JKA Key and Fighter like this
Key Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 I think this would be really fun and I'd definitely help out... Now I have a reason to know an endless amount of useless information about two video games! There's a LOT of clan history to be documented as well... I foresee problems in that department, but I don't think it'd be too hard... and - random thought, this may be an excellent way to reconnect with lost clan mates from years ago who may be active on this website...
afi Posted January 5, 2013 Posted January 5, 2013 The problem would be to decide which information/clan/player/mod is important enough to be in that wiki.
MUG Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I think It'd be neat, however, that sounds like it would overlap with the current tutorials section. If you do decide to do it, you should either move tutorials over to the wiki (I'm assuming you are intending a media wiki?) or just add more page types like the tutorials to the existing system. also:The problem would be to decide which information/clan/player/mod is important enough to be in that wiki.When you have a wiki, you can basically allow a page for anything even nearly relevant, regardless of importance.
eezstreet Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Tutorials don't need to be part of the wiki at all.The way I see it, they're two different kinds of information. Wiki information is like information about nouns, they tell you information about something such as a clan, a mod, Ghoul2 format, a particular code function, or a major event. Tutorials are verb information, they teach how to do things. So they don't really belong together at all. Darth_Bothersome, therfiles, Astral Serpent and 1 other like this
afi Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 also:When you have a wiki, you can basically allow a page for anything even nearly relevant, regardless of importance. Well, not if it comes to the big wikis (aka wikipedia) where most entries get deleted when they are not important enough. And I think it would be stupid if everyone would enter his own name and write about his personal history D:
MUG Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I think it would be stupid if everyone would enter his own name and write about his personal history D:that's just their loss, as noone will read it.

And I think it would be stupid if everyone would enter his own name and write about his personal history D: Don't see what the problem is. In fact having a bit of history isn't a bad thing, as there really are people who have never heard of Tobe or Plasma or Pande. As far as random people are concerned, again, there is no issue. If people don't have their wiki pages read, well, that's their own problem, as MUG said. Eezstreet has solved the thread.

Astral Serpent Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 Hurry up and make a wiki so I can contribute. therfiles, Key and eezstreet like this
Mog Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 I wouldn't mind putting some time into a proper JKA wiki. I mean, the game is technically dying...but recording all the things that make JKA, well, JKA, would be well worth the time.
Mysterious Stranger Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Heheheh I might just be the one making the most useless pages about dead, ancient clans and all that lol... Would a wiki take up much resource?
