Wiki-Encyclopedia Update

posted by Ginger at 04:08 PM, February 14, 2004 | Filed under : Wiki News | Comments and Followups

I’m still plugging away at updating the wiki with the old encyclopedia entries. I have somewhere over 400 items added to the wiki, and there were 460-odd in the MT encyclopedia. I’m not nearly finished. The topic expansion seems to be related to both the organization of the wiki and to additional material that’s appearing in the wiki. As I run into things that weren’t in the encyclopedia, I just make a new WikiWord and add the new item.

I’m also updating entries as I think of things to add to ones I’m entering. It’s a lot simpler for me to find and edit existing pages. Sometimes I wonder if I’m the only person who uses it, but the encyclopedia does make my life a lot easier.

I use it... not just as a comparison to entries in 'GA' either.

As someone 'catching up' with different elements of the game.

I've frequently used the encyclopedia as well. It was my absolute favorite part of the site. Vital even. :)

Hey, then come check out the wiki. It's really moving along. The search capabilities are as good as the encyclopedia's and the internal hyperlinking is great for cross-referencing in ways that beat even the categories of the MT encyclopedia.
