A call for the old PA players
Well PAwiki is out there, and i think it will become a greatest tool so new PA players get a glimpse of what PA was before and understand how he bacame what it is today. Myself has introduced some players this round who are very exceited about PA ( those who might "heh" this can just keep the thought or explain wtf are you still here ) and they could get a better understanding about who are who and why he is there in his own ally and about the alliances on the universe rank.
We ( the community ) already had many players and alliance's descriptions included on the wiki, tho the information is far from complete many small alliances and players were not included cos many players left, including members of whole alliances.
ofc many may agree that some of these allainces arent important, but the most complete the DB is better for PA and i believe some nostalgic would appreciate to see info about old mates around.
SO what i am suggesting and asking is that all players of the community made the lesser effort of submitting your own history to PA wiki and more, askin old friends and mates who no longer play PA to do the same, go there and tell about old small alliances, BGs, blocks, and their own history. Since most dont come to PA community anumore, some of you could be of much help.
I had some friends who were old PA players ( WhiteSnake, Declan, Ramses, as some of you might remember) and i asked them to include their history what they did, you could call or mail that old PA player who u still knows the whereabouts and ask him to do the same, wont take to much time.
I can say as a new player to the community, the i find PA's past interesting and a must know, maybe some of you find this what im askin stupid, but for most ( i know cause i have contact with many new players ) this could be nice stuff to read.
If they are to lazy to join PAwiki and do the editing, give them this email [email protected] and ask them to send their history that i will do for them.
I must say that all i said above is from my own innitiative and thought, i did without ask autorization of the PAwiki Team. If they feel that i am abusing it doin such thing, lemme know and ill edit the thread.
=edit= forgot to include PAwiki's url, wich is http://www.clawofdarkness.com/pawiki/

Re: A call for the old PA players
you can try #pawiki
or you can look at the help files
it's really not as complicated as it looks... a lot of it i worked out just by seeing how other people did it.

Re: A call for the old PA players
Well, i just noticed we have a increase in the players database who submitted info about their PA history, nice
I noticed talking with some players in the community that they dont know exactly what is PAwiki for or why should they submit info, or they even dont care.
PAwiki intends to a the improved PA wikipedia, the database where past and future players can go and find the history about PA past, their old mates, etc. I think is a great idea, cos many newcomers to the community can learn more about PA past and know why everything is how it is these days. There you can remember trhough information about old good mates u have forgotten, small alliances who you started and didnt even remember anymore, and much more. Maybe nostalgia doesnt matter for you, but i believe that must exista solid database for when PA is gone, cos completely vanish all about this game who made us wake up so many nights would be a sad thing. It must be registered. And all who participated of this community should be remeberd. But its up to the community. It doesnt take too much time to write some info like galaxies you player, good old mates, allainces you played, gossips and info only you know about the past... People could care a little more

Re: A call for the old PA players
I've contributed the r3 and 4 tech tree's so far, and some information about Joker from r1. I'll contribute some more after I've slept a bit. I also have an interesting addition that may or may not appear there in the future, i cant say for certain yet.

You will have to excuse me for being a bit slow, but from reading this it sounds like you want everyone to put things about their pa history/pa friends. But the 'people' page on the wiki says:

Other than the more PA-Related indiviuals below, You can find some of the "main users" of this PAWiki in Category:Users and the regulars of General Discussion in Category:General Discussion.

Which kind of implies it's only the important players/ones that have contributed that should put things there.

Poeple can have different opinions on what a contribution is. In my opinion (and I wrote the stuff you quoted), anyone someone finds it important enough to write about can fit on there.
However, the People category is meant to be topical and by that follow the wiki's style (third person, neutral point of view). Which is what the text is trying to say. When writing about a person it should be about their contributions (they led Alliance X, were on PAteam, etc).

Re: A call for the old PA players
Jester, I know this was mentioned before, but the User:<person> is a bit odd-looking. How is that fixed to be able to join in the alphabetical order.
Oh, and also: I busted out laughing when I read this. I don't know why.

That's because your'e filling in the User section for someone registered on the wiki. All registered users get one of these pages. If you add the appropriate category tag it will apear in People. To circumvent this, simply create a new page, for example Synthetic_Sid rather than User: Synthetic_Sid.
This make sense?

Re: A call for the old PA players
My experience of WIKIs is they are wank. They are ok if you want to search for specific items but whoi does. I just want to browse, see where I end up and that seems pretty impossible.

Re: A call for the old PA players
The only way to make the Wiki better is to add information to it and edit things that are on there to make it more accurate and relevant. If you can't find a page on something you know something about, then add it. If you think information on a page is wrong or could be improved, then all you need to do is click the "edit" link at the top of the page.
