General Wiki discussion
Currently the wiki is not in sync with in-game content and storyline. I beseech you my fellow manakins lend me your fingers and imaginations.
I'm currently swamped in art and need us to expand TMW mythos and npcs and areas. We need stories, corrections, new screencaps, etc.
Please make wiki posts at least 5 paragraphs in length, Shorter content can be kept on this thread until it matures.
(Also contact Chayenne or cinderweb to find out more details)

Re: Wiki Help Needed
This includes your own stories for why things came into existence in the manaworld. I'd love to hear stories about how the forest ecology works or Mythos behind Snake Canyon. More History on the Bizaar. Are all fine examples.
I've talked to some of you in game and I know you have stories in your head. Lets hear them.

Re: Wiki Help Needed
I was approved for a wiki account the other day, and will be devoting some time to update and improve the documentation therein as I learn/play the game.
Re: Wiki Help Needed
Well I was trying to change stuff here and there to offer players a better way to follow the things the dev team is working on as we also have a lack of communication here.
I bet some of you would prefer something like a weekly summary (yeah I know we used to have one ) but devs usually just want to work on their stuff and forget about those summary things (we should have dev-player meetings more often though).
However, please check this page: Dev:Developers
Under "Recent projects" i added a few links and a short description about how you can follow the development progress.
Also you will be redirected to this page by entering things like "Project"/"Projects" or "Developer" in the search function in case you forgot that it's actually called "Dev:Developers".
It's sure not perfect but better than before
Oh, and I also deleted this totally outdated page which is a perfect example that keeping an overview in an extra page is not working.
Hope you like it ♥

I just couldn't find something important or urgent in it, but honestly I don't understand a few things in it <.<
However, I will update this page too and add some points of my personal wiki to-do list if I got more time

Re: Wiki Help Needed
Yeah to keep the people playing, we need updates.
I think it's time for another map update.

Re: Wiki Help Needed
I'm sure someone has already thought of this but it strikes me that a lot of the wiki maintenance could be accomplished by using scripts that convert the game content to basic wiki entries. It'd probably be a better use of time to work on this a bit than continue with the manual-update method. Maybe even a wiki-tools git repo so the scripts are easy to find?

Tools that are only on the wiki tend to get lost. Far better that they be added to the existing tools repo, with a makefile shortcut.Nard wrote:Why not wiki itself? it is usually the purpose of a dev namespace.

I am uncertain how the kind of script we need *could* be implemented as a MediaWiki extension, and I certainly do not want to have to maintain that.

There are several kinds of scripts which can developed and integrated in mediawikis:
- Javascripts: Javascript can be included in a page or can be made available to every skins by putting them in ProjectNameSpace:common.js; for example see: Wikipedia:NavFrame
See also: - extensions: For details about extension development and integration see Wikimedia Manual:Developing extensions
