Codex Gamicus:Wiki move

What should we focus on after the move?
There are a few things that will be very important with the move to Wiki. The EG will be joining a larger community of video game wikis. To encourage the growth of this community, shorter articles will become more the norm at the EG, with in-article links to other Wiki Gaming sites encouraged to drive cross-traffic and communication between wikis. I think you'll find this to be a beneficial situation. The site will continue to be licensed under the GNU FDL.

Is there anything we can do to help?
Certainly. Be as awesome as you are now, just in the new location. Achernar will still be around to assist with the transition and will now have significantly more time to edit articles, so you should see him around a bit more often (he has a bunch of articles on Diplomacy he's been wanting to work on).


 * Some images from game info do not appear many are png files what is the problem?--Cs california 23:47, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

What happened to the logo?
Things need a little sprucing up in our new home. Let's get to it.

Gameinfo Pages and You
The content from gameinfo.gamepedia.com has been completely subsumed into the EG. If an article didn't appear in the EG, it's now here. If there were conflicts, they are here.

Whoa - where did the forums go?
They're gone. Intead, we can handle these kinds of things through talk pages and other wiki-like communications channels. It's easier, doesn't require a second login, and can be done while you're in "edit" mode.


 * The above seems to have been written before the standard wiki-style forums were finalized. They don't require second log-in or anything complicated. They are "wiki-like communications channels". They are ideal for any discussion that covers more than one page (and could therefore not fit well on a single article talk page) and for "help" (where people wanting help can't find what page to attach their question to). See Help:Wiki-style forum set up.
