I think it would be beneficial for noobstown to have a wiki page. For instance the wiki page could have mulitple guides and FAQ's on the site. It could also have the history of noobstown and the list of plugins and the commands for the plugins. I see a lot of server that have wiki pages and I think that it would be good for noobstown to have one too.
-
This should be added soon! I hope it does! Almost everything has a wiki even TV shows have wikis we need one for noobstown!
-
There already is one (http://noobscraft.wikispaces.com/ (http://noobscraft.wikispaces.com/)). But that is quite outdated so if someone would be willing to make a more up to date one, then yes, that'd be great.
-
If I was to make an updated wiki for noobstown should I name it Noobstown after the server or Noobscraft after the website?
-
I made a server rules page :D

I am willing to update it! :) if someone gives me the perms! XD
-
Im currently editing it and I have asked for admin rights to the noobscraft wiki so I can be able to delete outdated pages
-
And also mc you can edit it if you would like too
-
Can i edit as well? Im kinda one of the oldest members :P
-
add me as a moderator/admin on the forum so i can edit it please?
my wiki name is masterrbc
-
You should be allowed to edit the wiki as it is, I think that the person who was the original admin had it so anyone can edit it
-
ok :P i have done some editing myself already! XD
-
Yea if I get admin rights to the wiki, im going to change some things around and rename some things. I want it to be more how should I say "Professional"
-
Definetly :)
-
Done a fair bit of work on the Noobscraft wiki, i will update it with more information later :)
-
I've been making a wiki on localhost a few days ago, and my wampserver software crashed along with the database! I'll start repairing it now, also, I belive the admin of ghe wiki is not staff.

While wikis are a really useful way to find out information about how to do certain things, we need to ensure that information given to our players is completely accurate and correct otherwise they are likely to become even more confused. This is why up to now I have avoided having/endorsing wikis because although I know you mean good, sometimes the information that players give on their community driven wikis can easily be incorrect/inaccurate in some way.
If there is enough demand for an actual wiki then a basic one could be added to the site however it would have to be strictly moderated or access to editing would have to be highly restricted. Currently this isn't feasible; but by all means continue with your community one :).

Thanks, sorry just saw that you posted on this :), but yes I will try to make everything as accurate as possible, and try to make it simple and easy for others to understand as to not confuse people. Hopefully I can get it all worked out, and maybe, just maybe the noobstown can have its very own "Official" Wiki :D

I don't understand... Why don't you just use the minecraft wiki?

Eh.. This Noobscraft wiki is for Noobscraft. The Minecraft wiki is for Minecraft. This wiki that Samson is creating, along with other people, is to help people with Noobscraft and the general information, not Minecraft in general.

Just to add to this, I am making it so people have a way to learn how the server works. I will have many guides and tips on the server that will help those in need. I will make things more specific to Noobscraft, more then just a information about minecraft. I will have guides on how to rank up, earn money, information on the staff, and stuff of that nature.

ohh right, sorry I thought it meant minecraft in general. Continue lol

Right, I couldnt fix my Wamp database :(
So I've hired AQW_Assassian01 as my Admin to help me start work at Wikia. The Wiki is Noobstown
-
I have a small one set up Lewes http://noobscraft.wikia.com/wiki/Noobscraft_Wiki (http://noobscraft.wikia.com/wiki/Noobscraft_Wiki)
-
You could transfer it into ours, if you tell me your username I'll make you an admin.
-
You could transfer it into ours,
That doesn't seem fair to me. Considering Samson started his first. :/
-
I like how this idea has turned real inside the topic
-
Which Wiki page are we working on? I need to know so I don't post the tutorials and guides i'm making at the moment onto the wrong wikipedia :S
-
The one that Samson has started is fine enough. I'd ask for permission off him to help him. That's just my opinion though.
-
Samson, can I help with making some of the guides and tutorials on the wiki?

Ok, I'm not quite sure. Yes, I would love you help AQW and lewes but I'm am not currently the admin of the noobscraft wiki. There was a previous owner but he let the wiki page fall into ruin. I have repaired it and have requested admin rights to the wiki page. I have gotten a reply saying that I need to prove that I will take care of the wiki and continue to post and update it. For right now I think anyone can edit the wiki. But once I get admin rights I will want to change that. But I don't care which wiki it will be. As long as there is a wiki for the server.
I am also sorry for the long wait. My computer crashed and I have to resort to using my iPhone to type with.
-
Wikia can not change the permissions for only selected people can edit. Its a rule, I tried it before :(
-
I fell Samson should continue work on his unimpeded. Especially because many of you eager to help are newer to the server than some wanting to help. If we were to make it as good as possible we need more people who were on much longer, such as my self, Danniel, or Masterr. Thats my opinion.

Tyja, I have been on since late November, but I left for a while to have a break from the server.
-
I have only been on the server for about 3 months, but I feel I have a good amount of knowledge about this server. But you or any other people on the server can edit it too and add their information to the wiki too.

Ive been on since April 2011 <3

But it doesn't really make me new to the server though.

For the wiki itself, seeing as youve only seen one maybe two versions.

Just because I haven't been on for that long does not mean I cannot write guides though, does it?

Is a wiki really for guides? Seeing as how there is a whole guides section on the forum it seems redundant and unnecessary.

Ok, setting some things out straight. Samson started the wiki to help new players to Noobscraft get "More of an insight" as to what Noobscraft is and to give them information about things like towns, the Staff, I have made several sections about what VIP is, how it affects you and several other things. I inted to make a page about the towns in Noobscraft, including the "Historical" sence they may have.

So your saying that if we make a wiki, there is no way that we can stop people from editing the information on the wiki? People will always be able to edit it?
-
Sadly yes, anyone can edit any wiki on wikia except the wiki "help".
Anyway, someone could come along and delete everything. I remember another wiki suffering from it. Poor them :(

Samson, you should make copies of our wiki

It is possible for me to undo edits by other people. The wiki stores all previous information of what was edited, and a copy of the page before the edit. So I think that we should be good. I shoes me who edited something and what they edited.
