: I would be a little bit afraid, that this could split up our forces, as it is a lot additional work. Maybe people would start writing only in their native languages. Better to have an article in bad english (which can be corrected by other people) than having it only in a "local" language (which can't be read by other people). But that's just my opinion. -- [[User:Prodatron|Prodatron]] 13:12, 5 August 2006 (CEST)

:: I have the same opinion like Prodatron. It's much more work and both Wikis will be different. You can see an example for that situation on the GP2X Wiki [http://wiki.gp2x.org] and this device has a much bigger userbase. I guess the most common language should be used, so we should write greek.... aehm... english ;-). --[[User:Octoate|Octoate]] 15:57, 5 August 2006 (CEST)

Real names with the pseudonym? Shall we add the real names to the scene-informations as we know it? Maybe it's very helpfull to add the real name to remember the persons. So in my case i will add "Kangaroo MusiQue (Thorsten Norman Mitschele). What do you think about that? Kangaroo MusiQue of HJT 09:48, 5 August 2006 (CEST)


Moving the search field a bit more to the top of the left menu will be nice, so its easier to search articles without scrolling around. Hope you can do that PLEAAAASE :-) Kangaroo MusiQue of HJT 09:36, 5 August 2006 (CEST)


I think it would be nice to have a menu link to technical documentation and sourcecode (routine collection) on the left side. You then can put articles like 'Hardware scrolling' in this categories... --Octoate 15:14, 3 July 2006 (CDT)

That's a really good idea - it would be nice to be able to post source code here.... --ChaRleyTroniC 17:00, 3 July 2006 (CDT)
Indeed it's a nice idea, and I thought about it upon looking at the source code provided over at the Zone. Will add a link when I get back from work :) - Gryzor 22:35, 3 July 2006 (CDT)

Maybe its possible to make a list of all software-houses like Ocean, Alligata etc. Where we can add some nice informations about those companies?

You can actually add a link yourself. If you go into The Games section you can add a link about Software Houses and start adding. Maybe I will add it to the sidebar as well :) - Gryzor 22:35, 3 July 2006 (CDT)

Why does the crap keep getting posted at the bottom of the main page... bloody spammers! Executioner

Indeed... I have noticed your work (you always get to it faster than me!), and I really thank you for that. This is what you get for allowing posts without registering, but I think it's worth it continuing like this, at least for a while, and see how it goes... Thanks so much!

Hi, if I add a JPG with the '|thumb' command, it doesn't show on the page (e.g. CPC Schneider International). What am I doing wrong? --Octoate 01:02, 5 August 2006 (CEST)

I also think, that the "thumb" feature is not working yet. -- Prodatron 03:18, 5 August 2006 (CEST)
I'm having troubles with the permissions on the server. The Wiki needs the image folder to be chmod'ed to 777, but some of the subfolders do not have full access yet. I'm trying to chmod all of them, but how do I make sure that the newly created ones will be 777? Gryzor 08:38, 5 August 2006 (CEST)
if you need help or Shell-Access on the server to do chmod -r comands on dirs, just give me a call and i will set it up for you. Kangaroo MusiQue of HJT 09:27, 5 August 2006 (CEST)

I think it will be a good idea to do localisation. So i can add or translate Pages into german, cause my english writing is not that good as needed for the wiki. I'll do my best, but hey.. there are a few users around wich cannot write nor read english, so it will be a help for them. What do you think about localisation?

I have the same opinion like Prodatron. It's much more work and both Wikis will be different. You can see an example for that situation on the GP2X Wiki [1] and this device has a much bigger userbase.
