Super Mario Bros. X Forums

While I can appreciate the work you did, I have to be kind of honest here and ask how many people actually use the wiki in the first place? It seemed like a good idea at first, don't get me wrong, but it doesn't seem all that active.

I know, I've only just started doing stuff again in there after a break. The activity log consists of about 3 edits in the last month excluding my most recent stuff, but maybe if it gets a bit more established, in terms of content it will attract more attention. That's my thinking anyway, though I'm happy to do the work, it let's me unleash my creative side somewhat, plus with all of our history that was lost when Knux's forum went down is a motivator for me at least to see this through. It does have the potential, but it also needs people willing enough to bring it to life.

Yeah... That makes me think I need to do something for it again. I remember I used to go on it a lot.

I edited this page at 8 April 2015:

THX (I mean someone from the staff would know who's who )

WHAT?????? You guys actually have a full, modern wiki. Fuck, that is so good. The old crappy SMWiki (which SMW Central has) hasn't been used in like three years because SNN and Kieran won't update it. Worse of all, I can't even log in there to edit it myself cuz they locked it.

DANG. I think you should just go on ours than.

There are some bugs with SMBX Wiki:

1) The style has completely changed to a primitive one for some reason;
2) I can't edit any of the pages, it gives me this error:
"Error
Incorrect or missing CAPTCHA.";
3) I can't upload any files on the wiki, it gives me this error:
"[39e9fdda] 2015-07-24 07:10:05: Fatal exception of type "MWException"".

Same thing, it gave me the error when I try to upload an image there. :(

Yeah, I'm probably just going to trash the current wiki in favor of restarting it. We need a better system for page creation and management because the quality level of the current wiki is too low.

Yeah I'm all for that. It would be a shame to see it sit in its current state for the rest of its time.

Alright, I suppose I'll say this now: If there's anything from the wiki that you want to keep, go find it now. You can click the "View Source" link ("Edit" works as well if you're logged in) on each wiki page to get the wikicode if you want to save that as well. Note that infoboxes and other templates will likely be structured differently once the wiki is reopened.

Great idea Joey. There really isn't that much on the wiki anyway.

Well I've saved all of my stuff which I'll transfer in the future.

Also Joey, should we give a time limit of 24 hours or something for users to collect their material, before you hit the nuke button, just so everyone has time to be made aware and collect their own material?

Yeah I probably won't remove the wiki until later. And, just in case, I have a backup of most of the stuff.

If you're gonna restart the Wiki, I could see myself contributing some stuff, too.

Alright, I'm off to go save some pages I've worked on.
