Everyone here has seen the link. It is right at the top of the forums.

edit: A very cool idea and will come in very handy.

Anarcho · Thu 08/12/2005 14:37:22

It's such a great idea!

Andail · Thu 08/12/2005 14:53:19

The Wiki was setup by AGA and some of the moderators. Righ now there are mostly technical issues, but anything that has to do with our community goes there.
The old dictionary is also slowly being remade and put into wiki-articles.

ManicMatt · Thu 08/12/2005 19:48:24

Yep. I've got it saved under web links!

m0ds · Sun 11/12/2005 20:53:42

Joseph DiPerla is the third most favourite page!

LOL :p

Joseph DiPerla · Mon 12/12/2005 02:38:43

What da??? I am?

Its becouse everyone hates me and wonders what crap is put in there about me

Sheesh, really though, I why is everyone reading my page? I mean Holly crap! I even beat Chris Jones! Thats just wrong.... He should be at the top of the page. I mean I read his page about 17 times. m0ds should even be ahead of me! He is more popular and interesting than I am, and everyone's favorite adventure game musical hero!

LOL

I would love to think that everyone has been reading my page becouse they all like me, but I have a feeling its more for curiosity to see "What this fool has in his page..."

------------------

Wanted to ask what everyone though if I would put the Simpsons Game Template on this category page: http://americangirlscouts.org/agswiki/index.php/Category:Design_resources
It would also be cool if more people would put some stuff about themselves in the AGS People page. I would like to get to know more about each member.

Oh, and why is Edmundo on a vanity page? I see nothing wrong with his page.

Joseph, there are a lot of option for you in order to know more members.

First of all you can be here more often and spend time reading older threads (like I do when I'm bored).

Then there is a button in the bottom of everyones profile that says :"Find older posts by this member". Try also that. Someone with 200+ posts is bount to have given away something about his.her personality away.

Anyone that seems interesting approach him/her. PM her/him!

Joseph DiPerla · Mon 12/12/2005 03:11:23

Yeah, I could do that. But believe me. I visit this site everyday and have been doing so since 1997. I read as many posts as I can.

Just thought that since a Wiki is a history of AGS and everything that it did and who took part in it, I feel that more members should get a mention in there.

PS, I added SSH in there becouse he seems to be doing a lot of work with games and the wiki itself. It only seemed right for him to be in there.

You forgot to say that I'm handsome!

Joseph DiPerla · Mon 12/12/2005 13:18:55

I was afraid you would get a vanity page

Sounds like the name to an old Burlesque star

Appearing Tonight Only, Vanity Paige and her sultry FAN DANCE!

Andail · Mon 12/12/2005 17:43:23

Maybe in order to avoid potential vanity-discussions, we can just agree on not writing our own person-articles?

It does strike me as a bit awkward.

m0ds · Mon 12/12/2005 18:53:57

I'm not fussed! Whoever wrote mine is a bit of a legend!!

Joseph DiPerla · Mon 12/12/2005 21:06:28

I just hope many members are not forgotten if they dont write themselves in. I am gonna go in the memberlist and look up everyone who is not on the wiki and ask them personal questions and write a wiki about them. Be the best way to get people on there.

I am fairly new to wiki's though... Why is it frowned upon if someone adds themself? I dont see how it would be {{Vanity Page}}. Many people write autobiographies. Again, keep in mind that I am fairly new to wiki's, when you answer this question.

ManicMatt · Mon 12/12/2005 22:01:13

At least if someone else wrote about a person, the entry won't have any chance of saying something egotistical like:

"DG, he is the best AGS user EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

(Please note I randomly plucked a username from the air)

Joseph DiPerla · Mon 12/12/2005 23:20:27

I agree. There could be some immodesty. But if someone is modest? What would be wrong with that?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Mon 12/12/2005 23:58:30

I think the issue is that everyone else has a couple of lines at most, and only some have their games listed. When compared to them, your page is an epic.

Squinky · Tue 13/12/2005 00:25:14

I simply cannot be trusted to put anything worthwhile in there....It is just too tempting to tack onto the end of Joe's entry with "Also, he is known for his giant wang"....
