Title: wikipedia update
Post by: Ethan on October 12, 2005, 08:54:38 pm

Hi,
I am not sure about what should be written and/or updated and I am not  a very good English writer but it would be nice to update :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planeshift
And a very little section of mmorpg :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mmorpg#Amateur_development

And I have a question about : wikipedia describe the game, the history and races but history and races are under ab license, aren\'t they? All content from wikipedia is under GNU Free Documentation License.

PS : I didn\'t know where to post that...

Seems to me that the detailed description of Yliakum and its races should probably not be in Wikipedia, since they\'re not exactly \"factual\" or \"encyclopedia-worthy\", not to mention game content.

I disagree.

You can find all sorts of \"facts\" on fictional characters, races, worlds, items, gods etc. on Wikipedia. And I think that\'s good (as long as it says it\'s fictional - and usually it does).
