Llama8 8 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've added a definition for proc, but it feels a bit unwieldy. Link to comment
Antitrust 32 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Am I the only one that read "Please don't try to edit yet"? Nice work and all, but I think you've gone too far. Definition of "screenshot" Come on... The wiki is being turned into something I really don't approve. Link to comment
gogoblender 3,078 Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Well, probably having the words "not to work on this page" are kind of against the spirit of a wiki, but I understand the kind of focus one person's vision working on a page "as their own" allows, but it also mars the concept of wikilating and serves as a kind of precedent. So... Erris, who actually has worked for technical manuals for software companies, and who we've known for years now has been accorded Wiki Editor/Admin status. Because of this, we've now been able to remove those words asking peeps not to work on that page, and instead transform it into a "protected" page that only wiki admins/editors can work on. This strategy will allow Erris to work unhampered for a few days until she's done. I've sent Erris a pm regarding all of this, and will ask her to tell me when the baseline work she is putting into the glossary is done, and we can then turn the page over to the public. Regarding content that is being added to the page, let's wait and see till everything is in place, and then we can discuss the relevancy and/or utility of words on that page, that can perhaps be written up as their own articles or changed.

Schot 407 Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 I believe some of the more recent arrivals to DarkMatters could benefit from the work done here and on the wiki about abbreviations. If anyone thinks an abbreviation needs to be added by all means post it here or even add it to the wiki page: Game Glossary and Abbreviations Link to comment
gogoblender 3,078 Posted January 19, 2010 Author Share Posted January 19, 2010 Great idea! Erris did a first class job on most of this... and her touch still remains on the bestiary creature descriptions. If anyone feels like going into dictionary mode to help here yay! gogo Link to comment
