Merge with CheatBase
Should we merge with CheatBase wiki and combine their articles? Please cast your vote below --Cs california 08:43, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: More detailed cheat articles --Cs california 08:43, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I also think we might consider Merge as well, our site does include a cheat section in every game page. DeathstrikeX 14:12, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: I think its a great idea to pull all the broad cross-game info into one wiki that can really serve as the entry point for Wiki Gaming Network ! angies (talk) 17:50, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: Having one definitive source for all sorts of gaming needs is definately a plus in my book. Also, since we really don't have detailed cheat sections like they do, their content would definately be put to good use. And ditto to what Angies said ^_^ -- 21:10, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: Great fodder for the /cheats page for all games. --Achernar 21:47, 10 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: All of the above, really. -- Adan Aileron 01:14, 11 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: Agreed. --AlphaTwo 05:49, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: Cheatbase wants to merge over? Wonderful! -Afker 10:59, 12 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Merge: Yes, I am the one who suggested this and tried to get it going as I was having trouble getting in touch with the admins of CheatBase. I have barely scratched the surface to Wiki Gaming so I don't know how many other cross-gaming Wikis are out there, but all of them should be merged together. If you think about it merely having the three basic portions of a Cheat site: Cheats, Hints, and FAQs, like Cheat Codes.com or Cheats CC (except IGN has a couple extra sections like the official Guide along with Reviews etc.) and anyway it goes you are somehow going to have to cite something else in your cheats that goes away from just those three sections, or even creating an intro for each page, how do you create an intro when that intro is basically going to be found on eGamia, except better? I would be good to help with the merging process, since CheatBase is somewhat small we could go through every page and take out all information that is not currently here and after we are done delete that page so we know how many are left. -PatPeter 05:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Then we would need LOTS of clean up! and remember we have gameplay info and a general over view plus in game related material. Remember to use the format here when you are converting pages because everything will look consistant--Cs california 05:22, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Don't worry I do more formatting than writing on Wikipedia and the like. -PatPeter 23:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Also we can implement A LOT of the CheatBase protocol, like having the system at the end of the game title when it is shared across consoles, one thing I have noticed in gaming is that there are ALWAYS differences between consoles. -PatPeter 23:10, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Since there's so much support for this, I'm going to carry out the merge now. All the pages are listed at Project:CheatBase. I'll add a note there about the duplicate titles too. Angela (talk) 07:41, 14 December 2007 (UTC)


 * That was a bit more complicated than I expected! Sorry for all the mess in recent changes, but it's now finished, except for some images which might need importing. Those are listed at Project:CheatBase. Angela (talk) 11:12, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

So glad to see thing happening! Would it be appropriate now to redirect Cheatbase.wiki to egamia.wiki? If so, we might want to add a section on the Main_page just for cheats. angies (talk) 19:54, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Not yet let me jack the pics of buttons first--Cs california 23:16, 17 December 2007 (UTC)


 * You done with the pictures? -PatPeter 23:10, 1 February 2008 (UTC)


 * We need to finish this up, people are still making constructive edits to CheatBase. -PatPeter 23:11, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
