First, we make a page here: http://iiwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page Source codes can be found somewhere for someone willing to do it. examples for how region pages look can be found here: http://iiwiki.com/wiki/Category:Regions we include subcategories that go into detail of geography, religion, organization, world events,etc. Including individual nation pages with the infobox and everything. Source codes are litered everywhere, i believe you can find templates. |

I'm thinking we start off simple, with a list of religions, ethnic groups, stuff like that. | |

i think everyone should handle their own nation, just from doing that you'll run into having to do language, people, plenty of things. Just look at rl wiki's and there are plenty of hyperlinks that could leqd you "down the rabbit hole" | |

I have something to say. When nations in Mundus write about their nations, they should have historical events or happenings that are complementary with their region. So, Epanastasia is right, there should be committees for each continent (or any other division). |

Having committees might unnecessarily complicate things, perhaps just doing factbooks and then deriving references like events, language, culture and geography into separate pages could be easier....like real wikipedia does, then simple collaborations when it comes to writing something with someone else like events or happenings. Committees would be necessary only if everyone in the region was doing wiki. |

Tried something similar, at least for historical stuff. Probably workable if you wanted to collaborate with a group of maybe two or three, but beyond that you risk ending up like my 'project history' thread

I like the idea, I imagine it could provide a really useful resource for getting to know Mundus better which would probably make it easier to engage in the RP. Plus I love link following on wikipedia, to do that for Mundus would be pretty awesome. When it comes to history a problem tends to be the turnover rate of nations and their diversity, makes it a bit difficult to produce a unified history. For example the best you'd probably be able to do for Cotif Aranye in its current form would be to postulate a history of loosely connected different small empires and kingdoms that might have engaged in unified military action against the Ardian Empire but further than that it would be very difficult to reconcile nations histories. As a small aside I've developed a little bit of a 'fan theory' about Mundus, mostly as a joke. Basically I posit that Mundus is a world that experienced an Orwell 1984 event hundreds of years in its past. After centuries of Orwellian government the form in which those regimes were expressed underwent slow mutation and refinement. Now centuries in the inner parties have vanished from view as shadow governments who ultimately remain in control of the fate of territorial units, all the various governments, all the cultures and histories are actually falsified history being played out for the benefit of power at that time. The sudden disappearance of nations with supposed thousand year histories and their replacement with completely different ones with equally long histories would be explained by the highly sophisticated revision of all historical resources, the re-writing of culture an easy task given the total control of peoples perceptions through doublethink etc. A state of flux that has been so refined and instituted for so long that it is natural for people to overnight believe they are a completely different people from what they were. This would also explain the retcons that happen from time to time. Suddenly an event or nation vanishes from historical record and people continue with the new 'line' without a blink. Is it possible that Mundus' entire population live in Orwellian states so advanced and with so much control over peoples thoughts that people sincerely believe and view the world in a way that is completely dissimilar from the reality? That everything in the game is in fact a farce perpetrated by total governments who's ways and reasons are opaque to us? A bit of a tangent but the thought amused me so thought I'd throw it in there

Oh, I was talking more like a committee of 5 or less (just a few NS players with a lot of background to the Independent Order). And maybe, history shouldn't be focused just yet in history IMO. Maybe just the "skeletal information" of Mundus. | |

wow Asetoth! That's pretty damn good fiction i always theorized everyone were ghost in a nuclear devestated world where one will let go of the past, thus spotty memory of former nations, no nukes and strange occurrences. Also have one where everyone has unknowingly collectively manifested the cyber existance of Mundus in our minds and on our computers and that it's a fully aware world...basically a sims/matrix type thing.But I like Asetroth's theory, just brilliant.

My theory is that reality is constantly warped and edited by extradimensional beings known as the OOC gods. |

I've updated the main page with a demographics post and added a page for the UBR-17, although it isn't finished yet and still has a placeholder FAL picture. (I have no access to my Vendosia-folders at the moment) Btw: All code from the "real" wikipedia should work here, so if you see something there that looks nicely formatted, you can grap it from the source code of the page in question
