Igynpadca Wiki - need someone competent with Wikia arts
« on: October 10, 2013, 03:03:36 pm »

So yeah, IamanElfCollaborator got this brilliant idea of making this (and this, to a lesser extent) piece of our collective hivemind a place where we could store our made-up knowledge about the Incomprehensible Game You've Never Played And Don't Care About (+ Even Less Likely That You'll Care Or Play It [Antique Edition]).

The absolute barebones (ie. blank) wiki is here, though the language is unfortunately set to Polish because lolwikia. And I don't feel like contacting Wikia Stuff to sort this out.
Heck, I suck at wiki-editing. =/

So here's where you all step in.
Someone who is mildly competent with Wikia (ie. can make it usable) and has some free time to spare, and everyone else who can make wikia articles. (which is not very hard, as far as I'm concerned)

Would anyone be up for this project?
It's a side community thing. A more organized form of Igynpadca. And you know that Igynpadca is awesome (in some aspects).


So, anyone?

(I've locked it for the time being to prevent kitchen spambots and jerks from ruining it, until stuff is set up and can work.)

EDIT!
New version of Igynpadca Wiki (locked temporarily)

Once it's not in Polish, I can add some articles.

I don't know how to add/modify/edit/be anything but useless regarding wiki pages, but if I can figure it out, it would be something I'd be interested in.

As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

'Kay, so the wiki should be going English in (hopefully) short order.
Why did they not make the language changeable from the get go is beyond me.

I think that the "core" aspects should be locked, like pinecones (standard currency) and server types/themes.
The rest I could care less about.

Once we get around to them, anyway. I don't know how much time it'll take for the language to change, but I can't imagine it being longer than the wekeend (and I have a day off school on Monday and today, so that's nice).

Igypadca Wiki is here!
I was told to make a seperate wiki, this time it's in English, so we can hop (almost) right in and get to it. (hopefully)

http://ignypadca-eltycopiae-arena.wikia.com/wiki/Ignypadca:_Eltycopiae_Arena_Wiki

I made a thing!

Also, I think that it would be nice if we had a single wiki for all Igynpadca games and added appropriate suffixes to articles.

Say
(Main) - for the primary branch of the game
(Colonial) - for colonial expansion
(Elltycopi) - for the (random) MOBA version
(Antique) - for the (less-random) MOBA version

Should make it better and easier to organize, me thinks.
And having two wikis is redundant, imho.

EDIT
I've added information about the categories on the wiki to the main page. Now I think we need some templates and we're good to go. (but then, I suck at wiki-editing as much as you do)

Sorry for the triple post, but here's the thing.
I can't make templates for sh!t. I can only use them. ::)

And we will need templates. At least 13 of them for every content category (hero, weapon, location etc.) and possibly more.

Same here. My skills with Wiki Magic are about on par with my skills with normal magic.

* Vorthon noticed a lack of mention of the sci-fi bit that seems to be a mainstay in the thread. :v

I count sci-fi as the "main" branch. :V
Though all of those are quite much subjective, as is the entirety of the game, really.

Gah.
For the time being I unlocked the wiki, and I'm going to look for help with this mess more than I've been doing it last week.

Which is, to say, not at all. :V
