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.

Need to establish basic wiki rules of use/conduct. See Tutorial:Cthulhuwiki Rules and add to it. --Squashua 13:48, 19 January 2006 (EST)

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.

If we separate fact vs. fiction within the scope of each entry, we should be fine. To every factual entry, we can have a "So and So within the Cthulhu Mythos" section. This could easily work for Historic Locations/Figures, etc. Items that have both fact and fiction entries, such as Aleister Crowley - he appears in Golden Dawn (Adventure) IIRC - can be listed under both Category:Historical Occultists and Category:Tenebrous Persons --Squashua 11:13, 2 February 2006 (EST)

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)
- Some of the books would be tough to catagorize in only 1 catagory. Taint of Madness, for example. --phobia @ the Shoggoth Network 01:43, 4 February 2006 (EST)
  - Taint of Madness is the insanities sourcebook, right? It would go under Sourcebooks, just like the Cairo and Bermuda Triangle Sourcebooks. --Squashua 08:18, 4 February 2006 (EST)
    - it covers historical and game info for all 3 eras, and includes a scenario for each. Where would you put it?
