check it out, its wiki AGS for all your need too know stuff aout AGS
Awesome, I only saw this today!
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. :)
It's such a great idea! :D
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.
Yep. I've got it saved under web links!
Joseph DiPerla is the third most favourite page!
LOL :p
What da??? I am?
Its becouse everyone hates me and wonders what crap is put in there about me :P
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!
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!
I was afraid you would get a vanity page ;)
{{Vanitypage}}
Sounds like the name to an old Burlesque star
Appearing Tonight Only, Vanity Paige and her sultry FAN DANCE!
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.
I'm not fussed! Whoever wrote mine is a bit of a legend!!
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. ;)
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)
I agree. There could be some immodesty. But if someone is modest? What would be wrong with that?
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. :=
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"....
No lies there :)
Well, I wasnt talking about my page. I was talking about some other members who dont have a page yet. I think every member should be added along with their games, contributions and any general info about them as well as links to their homepages.. Basically complete details.
Any personal opinions or views can then be tackled on by someone else. For instance, after I write my page, then someone can add something like "Known for his massive lists of suggestions." Basically speak the truth about yourself and let others talk about WHO you are. What they know you for.
If you look at Edmundo's page, thats what I thought was the basic outline to follow. I still cant figure out why he had a vanity page on his though...
I wrote mine myself. I don't think it's too immodest. I'm just typing in stereotypes about me :=
Actually Hadas, that was very informative. I see nothing wrong with your page.
There's not nearly enough LGM in that Wiki
Maybe I will add you then :P
Go for it.. Seeing as I have no idea how to do it myself.
Just added a phenomenal one member-two people in Wiki. hehe
Looks like it has been erased or something Nik...
Yes, I know it has...
After seing them in the picture thread asking us to stop picking on them, I errased everything. Anyway it wasn't something really serious... sorry for that...
Cool then, just was wondering. I thought about putting something in there, looked too empty, but then I realized I don't know a whole lot about them so....
And I must be a complete tard because I can't figure out how to add people into the wiki, olny add to whats already there....
Perhaps, via "upload file" on the bottom right hand corner of the screen? Although you need to be a member. (Is that something anyone can join?)
No.
Read the topics linked on the front page. They explain how to do stuff.
Hey lgm, I just added you. Check yourself out.
Man! My popularity moved into 6th! I had my 15 minutes...
EDIT: I have also just added Darth Mandarb. I am actually surprised noone has put him in yet either...
Damn it, I was gonna put in darth....
Sorry. I would have let it go if I would have known.
Bah, I was just lamenting my inability to figure it out. I'm glad you did it, you seem to do a good job at it....
Thanks.
I just like giving people recognition.
Just checking this out.Ã, Freaking sweet!Ã, More members should post in here so everybody gets recognition.Ã, Peace.Ã, Ã, ;)
So little info on CJ?
And... where's Andail???
I hope wiki stays organized. Despite I don't like wikis much (or actually wikis that not original wikipedia), AGS wiki is quite good.

I sort of agree. Where am I?
I see that i have not been added yet. Well, there's no rush guys.
We expended our Wiki profile(http://www.2dadventure.com/ags/smile20.png)
go and see it if you wish
I cannot believe that such a wonderfull couple (check their picture, in the pic thread), can be bad persons! No need to prove it guy and gal!
So... Lena and Dule. Nice to meet you! And thanks for correcting the initiall comment a little... (and for not changing it too much...hihi)
I've decided to enter in information on Helm, but it keeps getting deleted, and replaced with only "Likes Goats". Happened twice.
I think thats rude and childish, and not the way for a Wiki to be run. This is why I don't like Wiki's because of this stuff, anybody can come along and make your hard work into a joke.
I would understand if something good came of the changes, but it is just flat out being deleted for a tired joke. Are we not allowed to enter anything of value on Helm's entry? Will all further entrys be deleted to enter yet again, "Likes Goats"?
Thats just dumb as hell...
That sucks, Squinky, I hope it stops.
Also, I really really think people should stop writing about themselves, since it will make the wiki feature members in a rather disproportionate fashion.
If I can come up with two simple requests regarding the addition of personal articles:
* Don't let it become some sort of I-scratch-your-back-you'll-scratch-mine favour service. Add articles if you think there is a sincere need for them, not after some sort of deal or arrangement.
* Quit adding yourselves, and quit changing your own articles if people make pertinent and sincere updates. If you can't take any sort of criticism, refer to your own homepage or whatever
Thank you.

You're actually in a TV studio in Gothenburg. This whole AGS thing has been an elaborate hoax.

I'm not sure how to break this to you, so I'll let the picture do the talking:
(http://brandxculture.com/blog/uploaded_images/mawg-sorry-730793.JPG)
I am the one changing my profile information. Please don't enter anything there, I don't like having stuff about me on the internet. Appreciate you doing it, squinky, but.
I can lock the article so it can only be edited by people with the power to do so. I will do that now.
Woops, thought it was just somebody with a lame sense of humor. I didn't mean to do something wrong, just going with the flow of the wiki.
I agree fully with Helm on this subject. If you don't want information about yourself (Good or bad) posted then it's your right. No entry about me either, thanks. Just not my kind of thing.
LOL, and whoever wrote the FoY entry isn't so funny. Or very good at consistency; "De moh" and "De mod" :P
:P
But still quite witty!
Guess it must be SHH ;)
