RPG Maker Encyclopedia

Me and Dwarra have had an idea, an RPG Maker Encyclopedia website we are thinking of starting, where the members can post articals, tutorials and general rpg maker information making it any rpg makers hand book. (don't worry it wouldnt be forum, far from it).

We are wondering if it is worth it or not, and would you join etc.

Hmmm like wikipedia?

It'd be more like a big Users Guide.
Encyclopedias normally explains it's history. Along with the stuff you mentioned.

I would certianly help.

sounds like a great idea.

I'd love to help with something like that.

i have nothing better to do..

umm....It's kinda a good idea and...I think i can join n' help!

Hmmm like wikipedia?

Only in the sense that we would use Mediawiki as the script, since i recently learn how to edit the damn thing    you have to do it all in php, there's no admin panel or anything X.x

i have nothing better to do..

LOL BlueXx makes TheBodge laugh

This was Silverline's Idea

Silverlines idea; make a rembrant wiki and people will probably post some rpg maker stuff on it.

Me and thebodge invented it  :wink:

Nice idea! I would love to help on this thing-ie.

I don't think a site is needed, only a wiki.

Oh, and I'll help.

Sure watever, i'll join.  

settled then i wil 75% surely be doing it.....

suggestions for website name?

all i could think of was....

rpg-wiki
rpgmakerwiki
wikirpg

and all that sort of stuff....

Gamepedia...
Is my suggestion.

? :O_o:

Why they exist then? I've been writing articles in them.

is it to late for me to join?

Well after checking the main page I see thebodge has updated the news saying it's open, so here goes.

WIKI

There's not many articles on it at the moment, which is why you guys should get posting.

Make sure you read articles already up there first to get an idea of the style you should use in your writing. Remember, you are writing to what is essentially an encyclopedia - so use proper english and write in a formal style.

I've just finished writing up my giude on exactly how to use the wiki, so have a look here if you're not sure of what to do.

You have to register before you can post or edit articles.

Ack, sorry I posted something accidentally in the discussion.
Under tutorials.  :oops:

You should probably delete it.
I'll add the Tutorial tomorrow maybe.

No problem, I fixed it for you.

Here's a sample article that's already up there:



Is it missing anything? that's the thing, you can easily just add to any article if you have extra information :roll:

Dude very good idea for dwaar and thebodge, it sounds great that would help out ALOT of people!

Well... i put the "open" post up several days before paul made his open post here, when i was still toying with the idea of making a proper rpg only based website for it not just a small part of rembrant. i guess i had my mind made up for me by someone  

Still post suggestions guys
