Forum:Ultima VI Online

I was recently in contact with Cear Dragon over at Ultima VI Online. I noticed that his small wiki Ultima VI Online Wiki devoted to Ultima VI Online had been largely overrun by spammers. I contacted him regarding whether he would be interested in joining with us over at the Codex of Ultima Wisdom, and he seemed quite interested. So I'm proposing bringing the non-spam pages over at his wiki to the Codex, and then redirecting the Ultima VI Online Codex permanently to here, thus making the Codex of Ultima Wisdom the wiki responsible for all things Ultima VI Online.

How I'd propose we do this, is turn the current Ultima VI Online page into a merger between the current page and the current main page of the wiki. We could create a template that clearly labeled and categorized all pages that were Ultima VI Online specific, and this template could also serve as a nav template for Ultima VI Online pages. All Ultima VI Online pages would be titled "(U6O)-X", or "X-(U6O)", where X represents the page name.

Advantages:
 * More new editors
 * More new page views (They have over 3,000 views of their main page over the last 2 months)

Disadvantages:
 * Organization (This should be easily surmountable if we plan ahead)

 * I don't see why we wouldn't want to do this. I feel like The Codex should be the end-all-be-all of collective Ultima knowledge on the internet, so this is another logical step as far as I'm concerned. :) --polygoncount (Polygon Dragon -==(UDIC)==-) 22:13, 1 February 2011 (PST)

 * Hey guys, Cear Dragon here from Ultima VI Online. If you all can find a sufficient way to host our wiki's information, and not have it lost or just placed about randomly on this wiki, then we are more than all for it. I originally installed the wiki on my site just to see what would happen, as I have little to no experience with the wiki format of doing things. I had no idea people would come to place to much information there. I absolutely love this wiki and would be honored to have U6O game info kept here. While I have little time to mess with the Wiki while developing Ultima VI Online, I know that if this goes through I can call on our player base to help transfer the information. I would love to get free of the spam and misinformation on both sites. With that said I'm going to correct the false ultima six online youtube video on this wiki and get back to programming in U6O. Talk to you all soon!
