  • the wiki for CnC is dead

    #1
    The CnC wiki (http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/EVA_Database) is pretty much dead. I am one of the five active users there (I'm http://cnc.wikia.com/wiki/User:Cncfanic). If you are reading this, please go there and create an account. Its free. And the wiki needs more edits and pages.

    I'll consider it, then again. I'd be tempted to write fan fiction in, so maybe I should be more restrained.

    I'll check it out in middle of next month tho.

          Fan fiction? You do realize the blasphemy of posting fan fiction in a wiki, right?

            When I was reading that wiki the last time, most of it was made up fan fiction by WW fanboys who wanted to connect Tiberium and RA series.

                Don't even bother considering it if that's the case.

                OT: The wiki is hardly dead when there's absolutely nothing to add to it right now.

                  This is what I'm wondering at, and I don't like the idea of mixing fanfiction to general information.

                    Well, heres an idea, what about making a CnC fanan wiki?

                    It worked for these guys.

                      Yup. Though I took the opportunity to make an account anyway. Here's to hoping they'll be some new information to post up there soon.

                        1) There is a C&C Fanon wiki. http://cncfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Comma...uer_Fanon_Wiki
                        2) There's quite a few stubs and incomplete articles (even the one about TS Firestorm itself!)

                          After quickly browsing the above link, I'm fairly disappointed, most of what is written seems to be just official information compiled and rewritten. I didn't see that much actual fan fiction.

                          It's not fan fiction if you write up a profile for an existing unit and use current game information to explain it....
                          Nor is it, just by summarizing the events of past games.

                          There do seem to be a few added fictional segments, but they are all inconsequential.

                          The Kane Document mainly numerates the events of the game, doesn't use that information to support a fiction.

                          The above link is as good as the official C&C wiki....

                            What did you expect in a wiki??

                              He's referring to the fan wiki...
