Teletraan-1 is a good wiki name
worse, fextralife.
>it's wrong
what's wrong with fextralife?
>game doesn't have a wiki
much better than wikia

One of the Dark Souls wikis had one of those before he was banned and his bullshit removed.
Atelier games. Bunch of wikis, use one wiki to find item, another wiki to find item location, use Google spreadsheet to cross examine item with craftable option. Open up second Google spreadsheet for other item I need. Forgot what I was trying to make.

No I have to approve of this, after watching a movie or playing a game and then reading about it on your phone in bed before going to sleep is maximum comfy.
>Game has an official wiki
>An unofficial wiki that just copies from the official one and plasters ads all over it is the first google search result

O-oh?

Don’t even need to click it to know what it is

Fucking 1.13.
>the wiki screams at 500 decibels
so when you found the undocumented changes, did YOU update the wiki?
>Game's official wiki page has a page regarding the sheer amount of porn it has
en.wikipedia.org
Why the fuck is this an entire wikipedia page?
>pornsites official info page has a page achknowleding the games it takes from
>wiki quotes Jim Sterling
You need to request access from an admin. I actually started making a second one, but dropped it cause it's embarrassingly bad.

The writing for HM is pretty basic user, sorry that such a simple point is lost on you
I never bothered to look at a game's wiki. Why do other people do it?

Not a video game but moleman you gotta rethink your fuckin life my dude

I don't really know shit about hosting websites, but how hard is it to get a MediaWiki site going?

Most have search keywords and are well organized. They're also light on resources and easier to save if you're in to that.

What do you get, Yea Forums?
>both wikis are pretty similar but one is wikiashit
>wikia one is always listed first
>game has three wikis
>one is run by a madlad that somehow maintains it near perfectly, but the visuals are god awful
>one is run by a weirdo but the layout is much nicer, information is usually decently accurate too but there's ads and other superfluous bullshit everywhere
>third is just shit
While that's some serious autism, script dumps are fairly common.
are you saying this is bad?
I'm saying it's comfy as hell and nostalgic
I still remember the days when I used to print out FAQs at school and bring them home before internet was ubiquitous
>google lists the ign wiki first
I still get pissed off when i accidently click their site.
>wiki adds a ton of info to every page from a new, noncanon game with bad writing
>doesn't even remotely attempt to distinguish the new shit from the old stuff
Actually that's so loud the planet would be destroyed
*universe
where's the Touhou and pornography article
>general has a shitty pastebin that hasn't been updated in years
>asking any question in the thread gets nothing but people telling you to read the pastebin
no one cares about retarded autistic shit for autists who can't play real games
>using a wiki
what about Pokemon and pornography
>that script that turns words and phrases into links
>but they are ads
>Both wikis are copying each other
>Why do other people do it?
Can you really not figure that one out for yourself?
What's his name again guys?
>mobile version of wiki barely works
>ads cover up 90% of the screen
>scrolling has a 50/50 chance of clicking an ad instead of funtioning properly
Who the fuck is the intended audience for that?
>Nukapedia
>general gets an amazing pastebin
>pastefag leaves the general
>new pastefag takes over it, and doesn't do half of the shit that the last one did, but nobody really cares because the game is completely dead now anyways
that fucker was basically running a wiki
What game?
The last time it happened was for maplestory 2, but it also happened for the dragon nest general and a mixed general that had a bunch of abandoned lobby games that started as a Yea Forums thread like dungeonland, duck game, magicka, viscera cleanup detail, etc. that I can't remember the name of
Rayman has that problem.
The gross wikia and the more professional pedia one.
Wookieepedia is such a stupid name, but I can't think of a better one.
>It's another "get banned from a Wiki because you tried to contribute information without realizing that the admin is an autistic control freak that won't let let anyone touch their wiki, but they aren't actually autistic enough to make the Wiki good all by themselves, and the series is too small/niche for anyone to ever try making their own, better Wiki as a response" episode
They gotta stop with these
Fucking dark souls. 3 wikis, and the first one that shows up on searches is the worst one
>When the mods put on their "mod" hats
I mean 4hcan mods suck complete asshole, but at least they don't have special spooky avatars for modding like the idiots at TVTropes has.
They're just rude unhelpful dickheads.
>participate in making/revamping articles of a dead wiki
>wiki suddenly gets attention and more and more people are on it now
>60k comments
>wiki has a section that talks about a hidden cutscene
>the cutscenes requirement is too hard but nobody has bothered to prove it and of it so the article is still up
What.
>More people are on it and make comments on articles for a specific character/class
>It's all bitching because they can't play it properly despite the article above having loads of guides and tips for how to do x, y, and z
I'm happy for hopoo that his game is doing incredibly well, but holy fuck normalfags make RoR2 threads on Yea Forums completely garbage
i only know it from the souls series, but there, fextralife was riddled with misinformation on one side and had lacking info on others.
if you have good internet it's a non issue, but it's also bloated as fuck with graphics and whatnot so it takes forever to load on slow connections.
Proof or it never existed
>wikis now play ads with sound
i mean he's right but still what a fucking faggot
>the wiki is basically dead but has sufficient information and no red links
>one month later
>every second link is dead
>random sentences have been deleted
>on EVERY SINGLE FUCKING PAGE there is a section filled entirely with quotes of this one autist shitting up an offtopic thread on an related forum but full of moronic idjits
Fuck you, R******d.
He makes compelling arguments, but why the fuck would he post it on a wiki?
>old wiki is abandoned
>still shows up as top result when you search for anything
The Souls series wiki's are so fucking bad it's shocking. Same with Divinity now that I think about it.
Dear God copy the fucking Dragon Age wiki and actually make reading your wiki remotely interesting.

and Furries.
