Tip! Hit that nice "random page" button over on the left, there. That'll take you to a random page, and if you see any syntax errors or such, fix 'em!
If you need to fool around with stuff, do so in the sandbox.

Progress Report
Awesome stuff that's being worked on:
- Main page is being re-organized.
- Some of the weapons pages might have incorrect info.
- Some of the ships have incorrect info. I've fixed some but they should all be checked. Especially the minimum faction requirements. -Obsidian
Suggestions Place
Put here any ideas you have in passing to add to/change about the Wiki. (If you'd like, also sign your name so if the idea is implemented we can contact the original person for specifications and the like.)
- GTS on pages is rather dumb and very slow to load. Can we get rid of them? --red_cactus (saying this at risk of lots o' flames.)
- I concur. It's pointless, slow, and ugly. If you really want it, make everyone download the GTS font and use its unicode characters. But I don't want it at all.--Roguelazer
- Well I only added cause I thought it would get people more familiar with the characters so when in game they would know what they meant. If you all really don't like it feel free to remove the images from the database and remove the coding, but I won't be the one to do it. --Mark McDoogle 11:43, 29 Jun 2005 (CST)
- Fix the <math></math> tags --Roguelazer 17:36, 7 Mar 2005 (CST)
- MediaWiki 1.5? Sidebar editing! Mmmm. Please? --Roguelazer 08:37, 29 Jun 2005 (CST)
- Yes please, I've been asking about this for the past few weeks, both Moofed and I looked into it, but if they have an update for it get it Lemming!! --Mark McDoogle 11:43, 29 Jun 2005 (CST)
- Now that we can edit the navigation box, can we stick the link for "editors main" under the link for main page? As well as Categories, or something called "Index" maybe?? --Mark McDoogle July 4, 2005 21:32 (CST)
- Per Rogue's suggestion, most of the intro paragraphs have been moved to before the TOC, keep an eye out for any that have been missed. --Mark McDoogle
- Categories: My suggestion is that the categories should reflect more what is already grouped on the main page. Instead of just ingame databases, activities, etc. I would suggest that they fall under a scheme of: General, Game Info., Passive Activities, Aggressive Activities, User Interface and Misc., this just ties things together more IMO to the main page, which is grouped nicely and is easy to understand. Why make people remember two different category schemes? --Mark McDoogle 15:21, 30 Jun 2005 (CST)
- Actually, I'd reccommend instead a heiracheral (sp?) system instead with the top level being "General", "Passive Activities", "Game User Interface", "Game Info", "Aggressive Activities" and "Miscellaneous". Inside those categories would be further categories matching each of the entries to those categories on the main page. IE: The General category would contain subcategories "FAQ", "Rules", "IRC", etc. Those subcategories would contain the actual pages. That way the category system would exactly match the site layout. The current categorization is based off of matching (very closely) the former main page layout. --Roguelazer 16:10, 30 Jun 2005 (CST)
- I'm shocked, SHOCKED, to say this but, that is exactly what I had in mind in the first place rogue, if only LemHaru would agree to it. --Mark McDoogle 16:17, 30 Jun 2005 (CST)
- Pretty late at night over here, so I'll think it all through tomorrow morning. But, if I get the gist of it, sounds good. If you need to get my opinion on something you can either e-mail me or use memoserv on IRC to leave me a message, either way I'll get it. (e-mail is more likely to get noticed sooner though) Also, in case you care, editor pages are on my list of things to redo.
Bugs
If you find any bugs with the Wiki (not syntax errors, but software bugs), post 'em here.
- Category changes are a tad bit odd. For example, the category IngameDatabases still shows two pages as being in it that aren't in it anymore. This might be a caching issue...
- Yah, if you log out/back in, it's all better. Probably a caching issue. So before you do anything with Categories, log out and back in.--Roguelazer
- Uhh, now that we're on 1.5, it's impossible to toggle TOCs. Like, huh? --Roguelazer July 2, 2005 15:42 (CST)
- Works for me on Safari and Deer Park (Firefox beta). I blame you. --Lemming July 2, 2005 23:52 (CST)
- Doesn't work in Firefox 1.0.4. Where the "hide" button used to be, there's a button called "undefined" which does nothing when clicked. However, logging out and back in fixed it. Odd. But w/e!--Roguelazer 2005-07-04 17:00:38 (CST)
Personal Agendas
Lemming
Well, I'm going to significantly cut back on my work on the wiki. This is so I can pursue knowledge that will provide use later in life, unlike what goes on during school.
Miharu
Capital Ships is going to be a section jointly written by CrippledPidgeon, MarkMcDoogle and me. Look but do not touch. Any revisions made by someone other than CP, Mark or myself will be discarded. This section is planned to have:
- A manual for operations of capital warships, including systems and tactics (currently being written)
- A short manual for attacking capital warships (this I may leave open for everyone else)
- A history of capital ships in Vendetta Online
- Anything else CP, Mark and I can think of while we're working on it.
I will also get around to reformatting and finishing up Missions at some point in the near future.
Roguelazer
- Fixing/creating random CSS bugs
- Clicking "Random Page" and fixing whatever crops up
- Categorizing stuff!
- Removing double headers
- Doing whatever else I can possibly think of to do

Waiting for MySQL errors to pop Lemmings bubble. :>

No written agenda at this time.

Proofreading, maybe adding some content.
Mark McDoogle
I do whatever needs being done, trying to add any missing material, and trying to gather as much imagery as I can to make the site more interesting.

Looking to learn more about formatting and what not while, hopefully adding more information to the PvP section of the web site most noticeably the Pirate section.

I will correct any errors I find In the "Ships" and "Equipment" pages.
