Tron Wiki

on Sunday, September, 02, 2007 9:47 PM
I just noticed the Tron on Wiki has some stuff in jeopardy.

An image has this under its caption:
The Solar Sailer moves through the world of Tron in this concept painting. This image is a candidate for speedy deletion. It will be deleted after seven days from the date of nomination.

A couple sections say this:
This article does not cite any references or sources.
Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. (help, get involved!)
Unverifiable material may be challenged and removed.
This article has been tagged since January 2007.

The Trivia section says this:
Trivia sections are discouraged under Wikipedia guidelines.
The article could be improved by integrating relevant items into the main text and removing inappropriate items. (May 2007)

Wikipedia just needs to leave TRON to the experts (us)

I've given up on Wikipedia. Every time you make a change there, it either gets erased or debated to death. The admins are dictators. It's not worth the headache. Much as it saddens me to see good information ripped out, just because your source isn't "good enough" or doesn't fit the rules to a "T".

You took the words outta my mouth, Rod. I worked very hard on a particular article on Wikipedia and one day, some guy completely deleted and reposted the page, thus removing all of my edits on the article's history page. I was so pissed off.

Sad, really. Wiki isn't worth anything at all, period. Sure, it's good for quick information that can be used to google for BETTER sources of information.

I think Wikipedia has outlived its usefulness a long time ago what with people changing information to fit their whim. Already, college professors have banned using Wikipedia as a source from their classes due to this issue.

If there are companies/government editing Wikipedia at will in order to cover up criticism, it's safe to say that Wikipedia should be avoided, period. (There was a story about a student scanning through the ips of every edits at wiki and a lot of surprising entries came up: http://www.maltastar.com/pages/msFullArt.asp?an=14323where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

Kia: Cool. I'm a infamous mythological perfect User.

Ditto.

The self-righteous Wiki-Nazis end up destroying any beauty Wikipedia had in concept with the fact that they're... well, self-righteous Wiki-Nazis.

Wikipedia is good for picking up a general idea of something that one may not be familiar with. Beyond that, it is useless in my eyes.

And for those members of Wikipedia who are not "Wiki-Nazis" and who are honestly trying to do good by the site and not so damn evil in their approach, I tip my hat to you. Too bad the honorable moderators overshadowed by the Wiki-Nazis though, in my opinion.

I'm sure Google will somehow 'buy' Wiki next year for $5 billion

At any rate, sorry to hear the Wiki woes. If you are all willing to let the Tron information die there, then so am I. I knew there were past problems with getting it updated, but didn't know it was so out of control. We should make a Tron-Sector wiki stored here on this site that can never be messed with

Autobots! Transform and start copying and pasting now!!

Well, if we really wanted to . . . instead of relying on the official Wikipedia site, we could request a Tron site on Wikia and start our own Tron wikipedia. Where we'd be in control. But it would take a lot of work and commitment.

Wikipedia is a nightmare. Unfortunately, it's a nightmare that many people use for information. It's become legitimized in our society. And not for a single good reason.

Nope, no need to waste time with them. Just set up a tron-sector.com/wiki/index.html page or something and have our own Tron wiki link on the menu nav Unless the term "wiki" is copyrighted...

I'm not sure but I'm thinking that 'wiki' is some form of magic, I think it's Indian magic. They might have copyrighted 'Wikipedia' but I don't think they could copyright wiki.
Also, they shouldn't change the information on TRON. Who better to provide us with TRON info than DaveTRON? He was in the production of 2.0, and David 'Auric' Hernley (Webmaster) recieved a special thanks (lol yes I actually read the credits)
In short, as I said before, they should leave TRON to the experts (us)

Actually it's the Hawaiian-language word for "fast". The first wiki was made by Ward Cunningham and he was going to call it "Quick-web" but chose "Wiki" instead.

Yeah, I'm all for a Tron Wiki, either on Wikia or on here on Tron-Sector. We could also use that MediaWiki program to make our own wiki here on TS.

EDIT:

Should we make a Tron Wiki on Wikia, before someone else does?order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pillabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Yeah, see that's what I was thinking. If we don't create a Tron wiki there, someone else will eventually.

I mean, in theory we could create a wiki or something like it here on Tron-Sector. But creating a Tron site on Wikia would allow us to get started right away, and prevent someone else from creating another wiki. The wikimedia software also allows us to easily collaborate. The only catch is having to learn the wiki markup language. It takes a bit of getting used to.

After a lot of work, I made several great updates today. I added a background and a logo (made by yours truly ), worked on two articles and the template for the Infobox.

New Tron Wiki look
Examples of Infobox:
http://tron.wikia.com/wiki/Cluhttp://tron.wikia.com/wiki/Bit
And someone else is working on the articles as well, wish is great. I assuming it's Traahn, but I may be totally wrong.

Hope you guys like the new look!

Since it's a Wiki, don't have to join, but you can if you want to. The Wiki is constantly updating so your material may be edited. Just to let ya know. I had my stuff on Wikipedia edited mercilessly and it sucks. But that's why we made this wiki in the fist place! :-D
