The UY Wiki

Post by John Pannozzi »

May I ask what is up with the Usagi Yojimbo Wiki (http://wiki.usagiyojimbo.com/wiki/Main_Page)?

It doesn't seem to have been updated since 2008. What happened? Is anyone involved with it still around? I would love to join, but I'm not even sure if that possible. I just want some answers regarding the current fate of this wiki.

The Dojo member who was working on the Wiki had to stop so that he could deal with some health issues as well as changes in his employment, etc.

If you have the spare time and interest, we would be happy to have your assistance with updating it. :D

[EDIT] I went and visited the wiki and not sure if there is a problem there or not, it would not let me register a new account for it. Of course, that could just be a security feature to keep the bots off it.

I will try to contact the original administrator and see if they can check in on it.

I checked with the person I thought was the original administrator, but they said they had just helped work on it.

Found the thread concerning the original setup of the Wiki....
Todd Shogun wrote:I created a preliminary Usagi Wiki over at http://wiki.usagiyojimbo.com if anyone is interested in contributing. It was easier to create than I thought...Maybe we could import what's on the Wikipedia site for Usagi and go from there? Ideas?

Addendum: I modified the settings so that only Admin's can create accounts. Figured this would help ensure the integrity of the Wiki. Let me know if you'd like to contribute.
I will contact Todd and let him know you are interested in updating the Wiki....

*Unfortunately, the Shogun has a very busy career, as well as family life and does not get as much time as he would like on the forum here.... :)

Does anyone else besides Todd have admin privileges on the wiki?

I think you guys need to upgrade to the latest version of MediaWiki. since the wiki's not sending my confirmation code to any of my addresses. Please help.

Now the wiki is all messed up.

Anyone else want to start a new Usagi wiki, maybe with Wikia?

I don't know how to start up a wiki, but would certainly be interested in contributing to a new one.
