The TF Wiki

[Gutsman Heavy]

I'll take all the Wiki's bias happily if it means articles like Pat Lee and ruined forever exist in that style. Gold.

Going back to what dirge said before:

If the "powers that be" who run the TF wikia decide to go that way, that's up to them. I do think it's a little _too_ lighthearted, but I'm not worried about it. I personally rarely visit the wikia, because I find the lightheartedness gets in the way of actual information (which is what I'd visit for).

For me - and probably others - the tone devalues it as a source of information. I have no interest in the wikia as a result, but for those such as yourself who do, it might be something worse considering. Which is I guess the point of this thread - allowing you to better understand the reasons why some transfans disregard the project, and possibly tweaking some aspects to reach a wider audience

That pretty much sums up my conclusion on this matter.

I was reading shortpacked to maintain my sanity at work and came across this:

Heh... I wouldn't waste my time doing that. Like I said, I spent a bit of time trying to contribute to TFwiki but since it's clear that my contributions aren't welcome, I just don't bother.

Just for those who may not know, I'm pretty certain that the author of Shortpacked is also the head honcho of the Wiki.

He was also one of the head honchos of #wiijii... I have nothing terribly pleasant to say about that IRC channel so I'll just shut my big yap now.

Does that make David Willis "Nemesis Prime"?

I'm glad Willis can see a funny-side to Wiki's critics... (which proves the comments/feedback aren't all getting marked as spam )
