The New Wiki

<< < (5/14) > >>

Endy:
Thanks Nums for adding to the intro. I just modified what the original "homepage" had. I kind of like re-using some of what Carlos wrote, saves on time and keeps a certain continuity going.

It doesn't like the password I type in :( Any way to retrieve?

Numsgil:
Sent an email to the support people, and they sure were fast on the turn around time.  It's not a huge problem, I've screwed it up a few times myself messing with the toolbars and stuff.

Zelos, if you think you could do a better job finding a free wiki, be my guest.  The only better one out there is wikicities, and I don't think our wiki would fit in their terms of service.

All I'm saying is that it isn't a huge stretch of the imagination that if you break it, you should own up and tell people.  Geez, I didn't think we were in kindergarten.  Sometimes you have to admit responsibility.

I didn't say you did it on purpose either.  All I'm asking for is "woops, my bad.  Sorry guys."  Instead of a defensive "hey, it's not my fault, cause I'm perfect.  Must be someone else's fault because I can't be to blame."

Numsgil:
Yep Endy, let's all proofread and add to what others add.  OOoo, is this going to be sweet.

Zelos:
nope I dont num, I dont think I can do a better job coz im not interested

Zelos, a couple of points about the wiki:

1.  Log-in before you edit.  This way you don't have to sign every single entry (which is a bad taste by wiki standards anyway) and those who are interested can still find out that it was you who added/changed things.

2.  There is no need to explain general things, which are not directly related to DBs.  Like water - you could just give a link to wikipedia.  The manual should concern things that are relevant to DBs.  So your "water" entry would sound like this: "Right now DBs doesn't model water and it's effects on living organisms.  It is generally assumed that water is avaliable to bots in amounts necessary."  Something like that.

P.S: Oh, and make sure you check the spelling.  If not for the whole article, but at least for the title (hint: glycuse???).
