===RPGnet Wiki===
 
The main purpose of this Wiki is to provide a space for various community RPG projects. This will include: people creating their own game systems; people communally creating game settings; and people creating collections of resources for their favorite games. Likely, other things will come up too.

'''Note:''' The thousands of individual game wikis are not listed on this page. Wiki used to have [[wiki:Category:Gaming|Gaming]] and [[wiki:Category:Computer Games|Computer Games]] categories containing many series- and genre-specific wikis, but the Wiki system was radically changed and no longer has those lists. Games that have Wiki wikis can be categorized here under [[:Category:Games with game-specific Wiki]], but there are so many of them that there will be no attempt to make a complete list.
This Wiki is explicitly not meant to replace any of the other functions of RPGnet. Thus it's not a place for general discussion, reviews, or articles or columns.

===Game Info===
 
Game Info is a wiki which intends to have information on every game ever created, especially computer games, but not excluding other genres such as board games, card games, and even sports. Our reason for including these other forms of games is that many computer games are often a form of these other kinds of games. For instance, there are many computer and console games about American football and basketball, so why not give them their own sections?

===Game Programming Wiki===
 
The Game Programming Wiki was created on August 1st, 2004 by Ryan Clark. It is the descendant of Ryan's VB Game Programming Website, though its scope has clearly broadened.
 
 
However, the purpose remains the same: To provide a single source for easy-to-use and thoughtfully presented game programming information.
 
 
The idea of a wiki is to let everyone share and edit content. The Game Programming Wiki is under constant modification by many of its users. All these users together make the wiki grow and become a large knowledge base for game programming (and related) articles.
 
 
The Game Programming Wiki also has a forums section. It is the place for discussions, problems, and ideas regarding your game, a future game, or about the wiki. Many of the articles (contributions) found in the wiki originated from an idea at the forum. The wiki and the forum together make this site a respectable interactive knowledge base.

===Game Ontology===
 
===Game Ontology===
 
The Game Ontology Project (GOP) is a framework for describing, analyzing and studying games. It is a hierarchy of concepts abstracted from an analysis of many specific games. GOP borrows concepts and methods from prototype theory as well as grounded theory to achieve a framework that is always growing and changing as new games are analyzed or particular research questions are explored.

The Game Ontology Project’s approach is to develop a game ontology that identifies the important structural elements of games and the relationships between them, organizing them hierarchically. The use of the term ontology is borrowed from computer science, and refers to the identification and (oftentimes formal) description of entities within a domain. Often, the elements are derived from common game terminology (e.g. level and boss) and then refined by both by abstracting more general concepts and by identifying more precise or specific concepts. An ontology is different than a game taxonomy in that, rather than organizing games by their characteristics or elements, it is the elements themselves that are organized.
