Legions Wiki

Hey Charmie,

This is a laudable idea! I work with wikis a lot in my day job, and I've come to really appreciate how helpful they can be.

A few pointers to remember when you're working on your wiki:
  1. Never use the personal pronoun 'I', and use 'You' sparingly. Ideally, wikis should be written collectively, and the writing should reflect this. Thus, instead of saying "In this page, I would tell you some skills to help you master Legions," you might say, "This page provides on overview of various Legions techniques, roughly ordered by level of difficulty." Notice that in the example, who wrote the page is never mentioned.
  2. A Glossary of Terms would be an excellent addition. You use a lot of terminology -- "capper," "chaser," and so forth -- without defining those terms. On a wiki, each of those terms should be a link to a separate page explaining what those terms mean.
  3. Encourage others to contribute to your wiki. Aggregating all the information about a game -- even one as simple and straightforward as Legions -- is often too much for any one person. The more people that can work on the wiki, the better!
Best of luck, Charmie!

DON'T FORGET TO MENTION THAT IT'S FREE!11111111.

Make sure you underline that part and over emphasize it ^,^.
No but seriously, it would actually stand a better chance of making other people curious as potential gamers are aware that they will not have to pay for it (hopefully).

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks!
Okay, for the pointers you gave me:

1. I never do...I say either [classname], the [certain position]. Like that! :D And I mostly don't write my name... -.-..Well I used to, but I stopped.
2. Yea, great idea. I'll add that. (Probably a "Glossary" page?)
3. Erm... I'll try! :D But if bad people were to edit...that's a huge mistake. Probably I'll save the wiki or something?...wait...Yea, theres a version change thing. Anyway, I'll try.

Thanks! :D

One of these already exists with some content, it might make more sense to update and add things to that one then create a whole new one. On the other hand, that one is a lot prettier.

By "that one" is it mine?..wait..It's mine (-.-).
Yea, well It's good to have 2 wikis incase some info is wrong, you could ask the other wiki owner if you can "get" it.

Coming along very nicely Charmie! However:
1) "The game no longer supports Mac OS X", it should say: The game no longer supports Mac OS X yet...
2) You could possibly upload/put links on the wiki to the skill montages by our community for further viewing I guess

Yea. I'm fixing #1. Also, you got some wrong syntax. It's supposed to be: The game doesn't support Mac OS X yet. But who knows? Maybe the devs do.

And for #2, yea probably an "Old Skill Videos", old meaning from FE:L not L:O.

Thanks for your contributions! :D

Poor Seymour, he wrote a lot of the player descriptions on there, but nobody ever wrote one for him. (And it'd be hella lame for Seymour to write his own.)
