See?

Seems WoD never got FA'd when it was new, and it seemd appropriate that you get one now, seeing as how the one year anniversary is fast approaching. I'm going to make some quick updates to the wiki page, but I'm hardly the best source for new WoD data. If anyone wants to add anything to the wiki page (especially reviews from players, in the "Player Comments" section) I'd be most appreciative.

Also, if people want to help getting WoD more established on the wiki, one of the most useful things you could do would be to continue the good work started here. Adding a ship to the database is simple, and only takes 5-10 minutes. As long as you can use notepad and PCS2, you have all the information you need at your fingertips.

Screenshots for the main page would also be very useful, if anyone has any good ones, please upload them to the wiki, using some kind of system - I would suggest WoDScreen####.jpg or .png - and they'll get added as part of the general Featured Article tidying up.

[EDIT] - You can now add WoD screenshots in much the same way as regular mainpage screenshots. Simply add them into this article and this article. Please remember to modify both articles to make the system work right.

If anyone's feeling particularly spry, I'd suggest creating some new articles for as-yet untouched subjects. A Nodera Day and Wings of Dawn 2 might be some good places to start.

How long can the comments section be? I wrote a full review for wod here awahile ago. Its also got some screens in it.

Here's another one I took some months back that I happen to like:

BP Multi
The Antagonist
Zacam: Uh. No, using an effect is okay. But you are literally using the TECHROOM ani as the weapon effect.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that shockwave one of nighteyes work, rather than what is in the WoD1 vp files and current media VPs?
While it does look great, I'm not so sure a wiki article should feature "customized" versions of the game, so to say, at least not without pointing out that it isn't from the stock WoD files.

You are correct, that is one of nighteye's shockwaves. I opted not to use them because I feel they do not have enough frames (yes, one of nighteye's effects not having enough frames, there is some irony in there) and thus do not look as smooth as the other shockwave effects.

Added a bunch of WoD1 screenshots to the wiki's gallery just now.

It's even worse than that. This screenshot was taken from a custom made multiplayer mission for WOD, so the background never existed in the modpack to begin with.  :ick:

More broadly I would want to see a portal for WoD which holds all the stuff that the WoD universe consists of.

Yeah, I was just thinking a WoD species page would be a good place to start.

Well, looks like Snail is working himself off as well. Thank you so much.

* AndrewofDoom gives Snail a "Ward Off Frenchmen For a Day" card.

I got the portal for it started up, now my problem is where should it be accessed at for the everyday dude? Not everyone is smart wiki guy like AndrewofDoom, Black Wolf, or Snail.

Maybe just link to the Wings of Dawn portal from the Wings of Dawn main page. That should be enough.

Now I remember why I hate doing this. Knocked out the UEU Ray and the Star, somebody more artistically inclined can take pictures.

Patience for poking tables at a temporary end, more when I've played some FreeSpace to compensate/listened to WoD Mainhall3.ogg enough.
