Encyclopedia Malfadorica (Wiki)

Methinks its an encyclopedia so there! :-D

Ok, methinks some people are getting to crazy with links. I don't think there needs to be a description for every mod, PBW game, and component in SE4.

I do. And more besides.

Please clarify your statement.

?Fyron's Quadrant Mod is a good example of an interesting map modification, it is an attempt at replicating ?FTL travel for use with any mod and/or set of players.

And who posted this? FQM is not an attempt at replicating FTL travel. The map that does that would be the FTL Map, which was made by SJ.

You can probably work out who by looking at the Version history for the article. But it really doesn't matter who wrote it. If it's wrong, change it. That's the beauty of Wiki. It's anarchy in it's purest form.

Well, how much space is available on the server hosting the EM?

PS: HEY! Who went and deleted the whole "Gameplay Mods" entry?!?

Currently it's on Lazarus' web server. Not sure how much space he has, but I am sure it won't be a problem. Eventually we will probably move it to the PBW server.

The Gameplay Mods article was not deleted SJ. There were just no pages linking to it. The "modifications" page was trying to, but it was actually looking for "Gameplay mods", plural. I have corrected this now.

We don't need articles for the plural and other forms of every word. You can make you linke like this

code:

---

[gameplay mods|gameplay mod]

---

, and it will show up as "gameplay mods" on your page, and link to the "gameplay mod" article.

Ah. That's good to know.

I was thinking of using singular forms to link to definitions, and plural forms to link to a list.

so [gameplay mod] would be "a set of replacement datafiles...", and [gameplay mods] would be "P&N, Devnull, UM, Proportions, etc..."
