Woot for new NS2 wiki

obsid

I just posted a brief stuff for the Marines and Kharaa on the new wiki ( <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki" target="_blank">http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/wiki</a> ). I would like to keep all the information released about the game there in one centeral spot so someone coming to the game that doesnt know about it can look up what each of the things mean. Help me out and type up a brief description of each of the stuctures/lifeforms etc. so someone that doesnt know NS can tell what they are. Hopefully we can add all the new NS2 specific information there too as its released (such as skills/abilities).

o.O
I was not aware that there was a NS2 wiki.

pretty lame that the forum handle doesn't work for it

I was gonna make a page for "When It's Done" and have that redirect from release date

Can we have the front page look a little more like <a href="http://starwars.wikia.com/" target="_blank">http://starwars.wikia.com/</a> with random, featured articles, and stuff just so you don't have to search and you can actually browse the wiki like you would on youtube or wiki.com, bouncing from related articles etc.

I added a bit more info for the Marines

We have a wiki? lol! Had no idea.

Flayra

I added it kind of surreptitiously.

Kassinger

You see, Flayra is practicing his skulking skills.

I tried to add an image of the current renders on the resource tower page, but I see that uploading is currently disabled. Do you know how to link to external images withiout uploading them? Or can we get uploaded (within reason) turned on?

Can't you just use xs.to or imageshack or photobucket?

K, maybe I'm just an idiot, but how do you actually browse the pages of the wiki? There seems to be no listing of all the available pages, only an open-ended search box. I hit 'Random Page' a few times and saw some pages pop up, which was the only way I could tell the wiki was actually populated.

I think it is very low on articles, people need to start spending some time adding / editing it.

Harimau

Yeah.. that's the point of a wiki, yeah.

digz

Harimau, I'm stealing your Gurren Lagann avatar.

Harimau

You bas.tard!
lol. wasn't my work to begin with (as in the redraw), i just edited it to make it into an avatar.

Wait, so now you're a link ninja AND an avatar pirate? That's just wrong.

Yea there are pleanty of ways to host it (infact its already hosted by unknown worlds), but there is no way I know of to do an image refrence to an external image. You have to do a refrence to the image name then upload the image, but the uploading is still disabled. So there is no way to do images currently.

what

Can't you just use the [img] tags, linking directly to the actual picture?

Harimau

he's talking about the wiki.

exoity

I am the one the created the NS2 page on wikipedia.org.

True story.

Coincidentally enough I was also the person that made the Jason Bourne 4 page too.

Kassinger

You win at the internets, exoity.

Harimau

That's cool. Irrelevant... but cool.
