Title: User Wiki
Post by: apljee on January 01, 2015, 03:13:25 AM
Well, it seems like the current wiki is two things:
- Outdated
- Unreliable

I propose that, we, the users, create a new, reliable, updated wiki with good information, tutorials, and many other informations for new users, things like how to get plasteel, how to make bionic parts, and just a generally more reliable source for new users.

Would anyone be willing to help?

The wiki is by members for members. Anyone can contribute. You don't have to create a new one for it. :)

exactly, why would you need to make a new one when you can edit the current one :D

 This has been brought up before. You can just edit the current wiki with up to date information. I've already mentioned that when I have time I want to try to provide some good content for the wiki.

Also, since when can you create bionic parts?  :P

Or why you'd need a guide to dig plasteel :D

I didn't mean create, I meant obtain, what I'm saying is that I want a team of people such as myself and others to update the wiki and make it more informative and reliable. Given the previous points, I don't think we'd need to do that but I'd just like to update the wiki.

So, I might've been a bit off on my first post, mostly because I was being very uninformative. I just want a wiki with better information  :)

You were sounding a bit like the wiki. ;)

I very much encourage everyone to contribute to the wiki. It is very much a community place.

You should chat with ZestyLemons; he's heading up that effort.

Yup, you can pretty much update anything you want. Registration is open (hopefully) forever now, it seems that the spambots can't answer RimWorld trivia very well. If you have stuff you want me to add/change that's not on the editing/creating pages level, you can always shoot me a PM.

For those interested, there's a to-do list of stuff here: http://rimworldwiki.com/wiki/RimWorld_Wiki:To-do
Feel free to edit in anything you feel needs to be done, and leave your name next to the edit.

Thanks. I never knew about the to-do list.
