Alright, I'm releasing the link for Lylat Wiki, since it needs to get going, and nothing's being done. I'm leaving for three weeks, and I need to get it started for now. When I return, I'll be looking into skins for it, as well.

For now, the link is here:

woo!! We're public!

Now, here are some of the things that i think we will need or that I really, really want:


  • Banner for the Sig's (like WiKibry has)
  • a graphic to represent the wiki and to be used as a favicon (like Mario Wiki Has)
  • a graphic to represent us on affiliate pages
  • a Wiki-Tan

Well...that's all i got of the top of might head.

Wow, I want a Wiki-tan too! I can draw, but never tried the anime style. :s

ZW's would be easy, any one of, or all 3 Golden Goddesses, Nayru would be a good fit, but the Farore image is awesome too.

Justin

THAT'S what it is! That's pretty cool, to be honest! But I don't know what we could use, exactly :/

I've been using it as the "In-universe" person running the wiki, as well as the person who runs the wiki central-communications area, Corneria (For those who don't know, this is similar to Wikipedia's Village Pump).

Edit: May we be stickyied and/or should we be moved to Membership and Affiliate Requests?







Justin

We're not ready for membership, although affiliation may be alright. I'm willing to go for that.

If you guys finish your policy pages http://grifkuba.org/starfox/wiki/Lylat_Wiki:About
Get the news for the Star Fox 3DS game, on the Main Page at least.
QuoteWe have 31 articles of 1,024 pages and 80 files on Star Fox, including Star Fox and Star Fox.
Is that a joke? "Star Fox, Star Fox, and Star Fox" If not fixing it would be good.

And show interest in the wiki, I'd be glad to have Lylat Wiki as a WiKirby affiliate.

It made sense, but it didn't clarify what each link was. I fixed it.

Anyways, I'm going to try to get some work in on it. I'd be glad to affiliate with WK, of course!

EDIT: By the way, we're going to have our own domain, soon. I'm going to purchase it soon. I tried today, but they didn't tell me about the ICANN fee until the end, so I didn't have enough cash in my bank. On Monday, I'll deposit some more funds, though.

To answer the question: yes, it was a joke.

Anyway, i am so proud to have seen Lylat Wiki start and grow; and am happy to see it ready to move on to the next step.

Happy to be of help thus far, and i hope to continue to help in the future.

Next up for me: Getting PK Wiki up and active. And finding a job to continue providing web hosting services. And a few other things.







Justin

Lylat Wiki is now independent. Check us out

Um...the links points me to a directory listing.

Anyway.  Here are some resources i have found, and i am currently looking for people to transfer information, images, etc. to the wiki. If you do so, please remember to tell us where you got it from.

I think this is the correct link. That must be a very rare problem, I've never seen it before anyway. Also, $wgLogo needs to be set.

Yea, that's the correct link. But what if i remove everything after the '/'?

and neo is probably working on setting $wgLogo....







Justin

I fixed our .htaccess, so it should now default to the correct link.

Also, the logo does need to be fixed. I'll pull it off the old site and put it up. By the by, the old Lylat Wiki is now closed. It will remain up for a little bit until the new one can stand on its own, but please use the new domain for now. Editing has been disabled at the old one, as well.

Pardon the double post, but I'd like to make an announcement, here.

Lylat Wiki is currently looking for more staff members. I need additional people to watch over and help launch the project. If you're interested, please send me an email at jfolvarcik[at]gmail[dot]com explaining why you think you'd be good for being on staff. I'd prefer that you be at least an autopatrolled user on another wiki, but all are welcome to apply. Thanks for reading.

Your LocalSettings file appears to be broken. As I write, it is currently 8.20pm UTC, if the time's important. At this time, I am getting this message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/zwneo/starfoxwiki.org/w/LocalSettings.php on line 201
You may be onto this as I write, but I just felt it's important to mention it.
