Wiki.yog-sothoth.com

  • Currently we re-direct wiki.yog-sothoth.com to www.yog-sothoth.com/wiki/

It's cleaner to simply keep and run the wiki at wiki.yog-sothoth.com Would suggest looking into it - allows access and usage to be tracked easier.

Basic Wiki Rules

Wikipedia vs CthulhuWiki

  • A lot of information has been extracted from the original Wikipedia. I recommend (1) cleaning out many of these pages, (2) leaving only the information relevant to this wiki, (3) emphasizing the link to the wikipedia entry, (4) adjusting the entry on this site. Under the impression that this wiki is more for gaming/keeper/player purposes - that's where we can help guide it. If combining both factual and fiction information, there is a {{mythos|text}} template for this.

Fact vs. Fiction

CoC:Supplements or Not ?

  • Need to determine if we should sub-categorize the supplements found on Category:CoC:Supplements. Input needed. Rules Books, 1890's Setting, 1920's Setting, Modern Setting, etc. --Squashua 18:15, 3 February 2006 (EST)
