Library?

Well, I thought maybe we should make something like a /tg/-related book catalog? We already have an article about Tolkien, perhaps we can also write about some fantasy and sci-fi classics, like say Azimov, Martin, Pratchett etc, minding that we both discuss them on /tg/ and have games based on their works? What do you think, guys? Fatum 02:18, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Main Page

Best article voting

Best article December

Let's get the party started. The only rule we agreed upon is that the same article can't be nominated by the same person twice.

So when do we decide again? NightRapier 12:22, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, we were supposed to have decided by December 1st, but since there's no one to vote, really - herp. Fatum 21:27, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Completed Projects

General D&D articles

Date started: 2 July 2008

Date completed: 8 August 2008

I bring to your attention that D&D and Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition articles are still stubs.

Moreover, Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition and Advanced_Dungeons_and_Dragons also could use much more info.

I suggest pausing your work on less significant articles and getting the shit done.

Are these still necessary to work on? --Anonykota 19:06, 3 August 2008 (UTC)


Best article voting: past months

So, we've talked over it. Let's now get to business, and vote for the best article for September.

I say we have two rounds: first, we suggest articles-candidates; say, to 24.08.08. Each article gets voted for, every wikipedian has one vote.

Then, we have second round, where three highest-scoring articles from the first round compete using the same voting system with the Vote template. Then we'll have the winner by 01.09.08.

UPD: So, no second round, then? Should we just keep voting?

Round one: Suggestions

Sameo article.

 Vote Fatum 09:52, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 Vote I don't care if it's bullshit - Tgcodefag 11:44, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 Vote It's an awesome story, no matter what. --Rodwell 14:28, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 Vote It's not the most informative article, however, it's the most hilariously awesome. --Anonykota 16:13, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Betrayal at House on the Hill Not to be plugging my own crap, but it is very informative as to the game.--Anonykota 06:55, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Love Can Bloom doesn't have my vote, but I'm pretty sure putting it here is mandatory. Also, are you actually allowed to vote multiple times, Anonykota? - Ahri 19:14, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

I guess it's possible to suggest one article and vote for the other. Why not, after all. Fatum 02:27, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

K59, if just for the ending. 58.168.73.117 04:25, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Tarrasque

 Vote Not very informative, but awesome. - Ahri 12:36, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 Vote Tarrasque, FUCK YEAH! BladePHF 20:12, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Round two: Best article September

So are we putting in our votes or what? NightRapier 04:07, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I thought we're to vote on several most popular articles, but since there are just two articles with votes for them at all, I suppose we can just keep it all in one place. Fatum 21:35, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

Best article October

It's getting towards the end of the month so new suggestions or votes for old ones would be appreciated for next month's featured article (provided Wikifag can find new hosting of course). - Tgcodefag 01:53, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Planescape

 Vote A good and informative article about an interesting setting. Fatum 03:20, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

Best article November

Let's get this rolling. --216.221.111.179 18:29, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Sure, here's what was nominated previous months, feel free to vote for them or nominate a new article -- Tgcodefag 02:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

 Vote - Oh come on guys, we can't possibly have this article in the wiki and not award it with something. It's epic and the very base of /tg/ fluff. Fatum
 Vote - Awesome writefaggotry -- Tgcodefag 02:12, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 Vote - It passed. --Pantsuru Man 21:15, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 Vote - As a physics nerd, I found this hilarious and seriously, who couCLANG! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?.--Anonykota 03:21, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

I suggest adding a couple of rules: no voting on the same article for a month or two after it was first nominated unless it has been significantly changed; and perhaps no voting for writefaggotry? Or maybe let's make a separate category for writefaggotry? Otherwise it just turns into 'Choose the best writefaggotry article from a list of the variants. Oh, you like this one the most? We remove it, what about now?' Fatum 03:59, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

I don't know about that first point. It's not like we're discounting the other nominated articles because they aren't up to scratch. At least not at the moment.
Also most of the articles on here are originally writefaggotry, including your nomination this month of Love Can Bloom. Treating them separately is silly as they are as much of a part of /tg/ as the games systems themselves. -- Tgcodefag 07:18, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
What I'm saying is that it can get quite stupid; nominating the same articles over and over practically insures that they get the award sooner or later (oh, and also leads to same people voting for the same article month after month until it finally wins).
I feel that we must encourage the wikipedian effort at editing and creating articles from scratch first and most of all; as writing an article about writefaggotry is essentially copypasting it from the original thread, it's not much of effort on our side anyway. This way we in fact award the original writefaggotry and its author(s), not the article, know what I'm saying? Fatum 13:08, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
You make valid points. How about this compromise: if we decide that an article isn't worthy because of some problem with its formatting, grammar etc., then it can't be renominated until it's fixed and an article can't be nominated by the same person more than once. Otherwise we're going to run out of decent articles to nominate. -- Tgcodefag 07:33, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
Not that we nominate any articles with that kind of problems anyway, right? The second bit seems reasonable, though.
The point with wrtefaggotry still stands. Or maybe we could just make a separate template for them to show the innate difference between an article the wikipedians wrote and a writefaggotry they looted somewhere.

Hmmmmmmm. It r November.--216.221.113.158 01:28, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Not nearly enough votes, as you can clearly see. Fatum 05:01, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
Oh god wat, voting still open? --Pantsuru Man 21:15, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
Why isn't the November article shown on the main page? NightRapier 04:42, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Because I suck at writing things, and it seems like I was the only one around in the beginning of November. Feel free to correct it. Fatum 05:40, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Righto, I didn't think we were allowed to mess with the front page. Fixed. NightRapier 06:05, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
