Have you guys tried to change the wiki banner on the old wiki? Apparently it was changed sometime during 2013 which by itself I can understand as the old one was kinda weird by virtue of awkwardly placed "wiki" word, but now it quite deceptively says "The Witcher official wikia". I think this is important because the current wiki still scores fairly low on Google Search.

Revision as of 11:03, 25 May 2015

Is anyone planning work on this wiki now that the game is out? I would gladly help, and am interested in knowing how many people would participate too, but I am wondering about a few things:

  • Is the focus of this wiki the books or the game? Based on that, should new pages related to the game be in a special namespace / category, or just in the main namespace?
  • How will spoiler information be hidden? I particularly hated going to the BioShock wikia and seeing that the main story was spelled out on the main page at one point. I think Wikipedia's "spoiler warning: spoilers below" is insufficient, and instead we could possibly make tags like on forums, where in a spoiler the text is the same color as the background and you have to highlight it to see it, or even a collapsable part of the page where you would click on a "+" which would reveal the spoiler.
  • Will there be any protection for adult subject matter? I think we at least need to check if user is 13 years old, though I'm not an expert in the contexts where this is legally required - Wikipedia for example has sex-related pages publicly available without any age verification...

Anyways, if someone can answer these and then we can get the ball rolling... --Jean seb 17:13, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm the admin of the wiki, although I'm not very active lately.

  • The focus of the wiki is both the game and the books. Pages related to the game don't need to be in another namespace, though, although on pages for characters, places etc. information from the books should come first, followed by information from the game under a separate heading (and by information from other adaptations).
  • Frankly, I don't think the wiki should have any spoiler tags, although general information on each topic should be separated from plot information, which should be under a separate heading.
  • As for adult subjects, I don't think it's necessary.
