not a problem.

---Edit to prevent necroposting---
Alright, so i seems there maybe problems with a smash wiki. As much as i liked to run one (and i really would), i don't want to infringe on any previous efforts made by someone else. So, for now, my smash wiki is simply a "fun" wiki, where if the staff at the niwa likes what we've done, we maybe allowed to migrate some of it over.

Which means i am now switching to the mother/earthbound wiki. Which may have it's own problems, as i have limited play time with the games.
Is anyone interested in helping me out on this? or should i scrap the idea?

the post i am referring to is had a quote form a previous post, and then nothing new. So, i was curious if you were doing nothing but reposting what was already said.

You are totally right, you have my support. I will get to your wiki

Thank you so much!

No prob Tomorrow I'll check the wiki to see where it needs help, will improve some articles, etc

Great! Thank you!

So you will make steps to make WarsWiki a part of NIWA? Or am I misinterpreting your post?

By the way, I PMed the admin (JoJo) of Wars Central about NIWA after I posted here.  So the brass on our side is aware of this.

I will

<--- no, i mean here.

are the problems more content-related or wiki-related?

The reason i am asking, is I've only played one Advance Wars game, but i run many wikis. So, i would like to help, but i am afraid i wouldn't be able to contribute much.

Out of Curiosity, what criteria does a wiki need to be independent?

the reason i am asking is: I rent web-space from commercial servers, and allow my friends, acquaintances and so on to use it for free. If i were to set up a wiki in this web-space, would it be considered independent?

Most likely, yes. As a rule of thumb, to be considered independent you'd want to fill the following two criteria.

A) Be self-funded, and not part of a network akin to Wikia
B) Be run by fans of the series, for fans of the series

Sweet. Did anyone claim Smash bros or Mother/Earthbound? I can set up wiki's for both, and more if needed. I am more of a fan of Smash bros, so i would would need to appoint someone to be the Earthbound/other admin.

On a side note, How important is the domain?

I currently own 2, csanimefan.com (primary) and grifkuba.org (add-on). I like to put the wiki's under grifkuba.org; unless that would be a problem.

Alright, let's start from the beginning. Bellow is a list of Nintendo franchises according to Wikipedia. Please copy the list, and modify it to the criteria bellow.

• Strike out franchises that have wikis, and these wikis meet some kind of minimum expectation (like activeness, quality of articles, independence, etc), or is covered by another franchise, such as yoshi by the mario wiki. Be sure to include link to the wiki you are thinking of
• Unstrike - if you believe wiki doesn't meet minimum activeness, quality, etc. and therefore you believe the a better wiki is still needed.

A
Animal Crossing
C
Custom Robo (series)
D
Donkey Kong
E
EarthBound (series)
F
F-Zero
Fire Emblem
G
Game & Watch
Golden Sun (series)
K
Kid Icarus (series)
Kirby (series)
L
The Legend of Zelda
The Legendary Starfy (series)
M
Mario (series)
Mario Kart
Mario Party
Metroid (series)
P
Pikmin (series)
Pokémon (video game series)
Punch-Out!!
Puzzle League (series)
S
Star Fox (series)
Super Smash Bros. (series)
T
Touch! Generations
W
Wario (series)
Wars (series)
Y
Yoshi

My intention here is to develop a list franchises that need good, independent wikis; but have otherwise not been able to achieve.

(my introduction post )

for those of you who don't know me (^see my introduction post ) i am interested in game design/development.

I'm currently working on a card game that started off to be about smash bros, but am now I'm looking to make it franchise independent. Even so, there is enough influences from Nintendo games, that it could still be called a Nintendo Card Game. 

I am looking for people to critique it, play test it, contribute cards, etc.

Please follow these links for more info:

I apologize if this is inappropriate for this site/board/forum. And i apologize to anyone whom my grammar may cause sever pains in the abdomen.

it's probably not going to happen, as "not very effective" is more early game friendly than "no effect at all". This is good for beginners, as the later may catch them off-guard.

Grass, fire and water have plenty of "not very effective", but none of them have "no effect at all", making them excellent beginners. Then addin stats, moves and other things as the game progresses, the "no effect at all" of ground, flying, ghost and normal becomes better favored as the mid-game enters approaches, and then the end game is more about the players preference than either of the two talked about here.
