Wiki

[freakofnature]

I found this pretty much just started, dead wiki here. I think it would be great if we as pretty much the last active Gotcha community improved and completed it. Maybe we could even have a forum section for showing rough drafts before editing and debating out issues so there are no edit wars.

[freakofnature]

Well, there has been no reply but I'm gonna start working on it myself anyway. The goal is to create an indepth strategy guide for each borg.

I'd love to help but using the Wii as an Internet browser makes it too much work.

[freakofnature]

Well, not all the work is in writing. A lot of it is just in playing each borg and giving strategic observation. The writers can then use that to help them create the articles. That's why it would help to have a forum section for it.
EDIT: Also, we need people to take screenshots of borgs for their profiles.

A formerly active GFF member went through and took a screenshot of every borg on their spec page. I've got all of them saved on my comp so I can do it if I have some spare time. If you look around, you can probably find the download link somewhere.

[freakofnature]

Wow, that would be perfect. Can you link me? I can't find it.

[njayhuang]

Here.

Oh, he deleted it. Hold on while I upload it.

Okay, here it is.

[freakofnature]

Alright! Thanks man.

If you're serious about making a wiki, you should create a new one. The admin of that one doesn't seem to be around, so if you need to do anything that requires admin privileges, you won't be able to.

[freakofnature]

They're giving me adminship in a few days. They just want to make sure I'm serious about it. I've already talked to them about it.

i would help out with this i can help with the glitch section and maybe some borg strategies

[freakofnature]

Well, since the staff don't want to make a forum section here (which is fine with me). I'm going to move the discussion to the wiki forums as soon as I get admin (so I can organize it).

[herger]

I'll help in any way i can

[freakofnature]

Okay yall thanks for the support. Right now all I'm doing is posting a bit and waiting on admin privileges which will come in a few days.

I made a template for info about each borg.

gotchaforce.wikia.com/wiki/Template:BorgInfoBox

To use it, copy the stuff under "Usage" on that page and fill in the information as described. See the Normal Ninja page for an example. I'm thinking that the move list and description would take up too much space in the info box and should go in the main article instead.

About the colors: I know it doesn't look great, but the colors can be easily modified. Feel free to try out some other colors.

[freakofnature]

Wow, that's perfect! Thanks bunches!
EDIT: I made a minor edit to the instructions for putting in HP.
EDIT: I'll look into colors later in the day when I have time.

[Manocheese]

The pictures are all uploaded. To put them in the wiki, type [[File:GG4E08-###.png]], where ### is the number of the borg. There aren't leading zeroes, so use GG4E08-1 for G Red, GG4E08-15 for Normal Ninja, etc.

[freakofnature]

Wow lol, I found that out just a second ago when I tried to upload double ninja's file and it told me that same file had already been uploaded.

I'm not much of a writer, but I'm enough of a Grammatical Maniac that I'm willing to fix anything that bugs me, which is just about everything.

Okay! Be sure to register so we know it's you. You can be our official spellchecker lol.
