Now, a while back, probably around the time when I officially joined, there was a bit of chat going on which resulted in that oddity called the Althanas Wikia. Now, personaly, I thought that was a great idea, because I've seen these things used to great effect as evidenced here at the Survival Of The Fittest (http://sotf.wikia.com/wiki/Survival_of_the_Fittest_Wiki) wiki. SOTF being a forum of comparable size, with the subject of Battle Royale as its center point has chronicled a great deal of the goings on while managing a faily long storyline. So far, 965 articles detailing storylines and interpersonal character relationships, but of course their system seems to be much more structured.

Now, I personally found the wikia impressive, take of that what you will (he's easily impressed, silly fool), and seeing as we have such a wikia here, I wanted to know if we would be using it to similar effect or leaving it as an experiment not worth the time to finish?

Seriously? No one knew? Haha... Alright, so will we be making use of it? It might work as a good way to organize things... or at least look flashy.

I don't really see what function it can provide beyond what we already have on the forums. It's cool, yeah, but I don't really see what the use is of it.

+=+ Its cool, and we have one. Just wondering if we could use it to make a bit more sense of the lore we've got in addition to characters and all the other bits of information that can be a bit hard to find.

Personally, I'm not looking for a change in policy where this might come down to just moderators, just a change in trend.

We're currently in the process of overhauling the wiki. You'll notice the changes eventually. Believe me when I say we have one of our best men on it.
