Forum:Wasteland games

So, without wanting to beat around the bush, I'd like to buy a copy of Wasteland and add it to the wiki (info not the game). I think as it's technical forefather, this would be a good addition and it's something that I would do with little to no help if necessary, but I really just want the permission to do so. I've been wondering if we should do this for a while, and now with the split from Wikia, the Wasteland wiki there is distanced from this, we need to find a replacement. Also, we should consider the one-sided nature of this wiki, as well as the boost it will give us over Nukapedia (no offense guys) before F04 comes out due to people looking for info on Wasteland 2.

Anyway, I'm sure some people will agree and other vehemently disagree, but can we at least have a conclusive discussion this time? ;) Φύλαξ [~μίλησε μου~] 22:10, 1 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, I'm in the process of bringing the Wasteland Wiki to Curse as well. Stay tuned! Ausir 22:42, 1 March 2012 (UTC)


 * But that's not what I am after, I want to include it as part of this site. Φύλαξ [~μίλησε μου~] 22:48, 1 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I don't think it's a good idea, given that, while Fallout was originally meant to be a sequel to Wasteland, in the end it's a separate setting with its own continuity and canon. It's better to have it on a separate, even if interconnected, wiki. Ausir 22:55, 1 March 2012 (UTC)


 * While it would boost traffic which is something of a priority, it may prove difficult to reconcile the proposal and Ausir's concerns. --233345-cartman1_tiny.gif Avatar talk.png 00:06, 2 March 2012 (UTC)


 * The wiki will be closely linked to The Vault and will be under wasteland.falloutwiki.com instead of a separate domain. I believe it makes more sense to have it on a separate wiki than having e.g. "Las Vegas (Wasteland)", "Desert Rangers (Wasteland)", etc. articles here. Ausir 00:18, 2 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I'd also prefer not to have the Wasteland content on this wiki; it'll just be endlessly confusing in my opinion since it really is a completely different setting (albeit with a few similarities). -- Porter21 (talk) 22:41, 2 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Well that's conclusive enough for me, thanks guys. It seems best especially if the Wasteland wiki will be that close; it looks from the address that it's essentially an extention of this one anyway. Φύλαξ [~μίλησε μου~] 12:22, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

The Wasteland Wiki is now at wasteland.falloutwiki.com - it's still under construction and not launched officially, but you can feel free to edit it. Ausir 00:00, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
