Here's my wiki, EarthBoundFanon. Can anyone help out? PLEASE?!?

I blame the economy.

While I do have a lot of ideas for my own little fan things for the Mother series, I'd feel really weird putting them up on a wiki... '-'

I have a massive to-do list for WikiBound that I am drowning in, too. ;-; (I've been conveniently putting it off by making plushies instead.)

Otherwise, I'd help out! Keep in mind that if you're starting a wiki, it'll suck up a lot of your time taking care of it. Just know that there's a large responsibility behind growing a wiki.

Speaking of that, I think you might have to put me on hiatus at WikiBound. Sorry, ;_;

I created the wiki in hopes it would someday be able to join NIWA.

That's a long ways away, :b

All I can say is that you should never give up! My team and I rebuilt Animal Crossing Wiki from 0 articles to 200 twice before finally merging with Animal Crossing Wikia. The key is just to put a great amount of care into your wiki, and support its needs as time goes on. It may not take as long as you think.

Best of luck! :)

Yea, but you had a team. I don't exactly know how much support RamblinEvilMushroom has in building this one.

Jake

I'd recommend going to communities/fansites and seeing if any of them will give you a quick shoutout. I'm sure a lot of Earthbound Forums have members that write fanon and would be willing to contribute.

My wiki is sad...

Only 1 person has joined...

Um.... there currently doesn't seem to be any fanon there at the moment.

I put starmen.net and the Mother 3 fan translation... What do you think "fanon"should define in the broadest sense?...

Can anyone help me find any fan games to put on there? Can anyone join?!

Those are fansites or fanprojects, not fanon. Fanon is short for "fan canon." There is nothing canonical (either offically or in the fandom) of a website or a translation project. Fanon would be more like fanfic.

If you want to cover Mother fandom, that would be more appropriate.

I was thinking that EarthBound fan games are fanon.

Also: I REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY need template help.

Mother 3 isn't a fan game though. The site you reference is an optional fan translation.

Still a huge part of the fandom... and by a fan... :\

M3FT is a game, technically, since it is playable.

EDIT: I need someone to help me create a good main page.

For templates, i recommend checking out the following links:

Link there is off limits, so it probably isn't going to be helpful for anyone who wants to template and isn't NIWA Staff.

Sorry. I was under the impression that he believed the entire game to be completely fanon. An article on the translation would, of course, be completely appropriate on the fanon wiki. My mistake there. :-[

Sorry, i was unaware that it was off limits....hopefully the rest weren't under the same case.
