Charas-Project

Thanks to our dear old admin SaiKar, I found an awesome site: EditThis.info (http://editthis.info). Essentially, it lets you make your own free wiki, and add, edit, etc. to it as you like.
So, is anyone up for doing something like this? Since Wikipedia proper doesn't want us, I figure we could make our own specific wiki. Content would be everything Charas-related: history of the site, info about the generators, forum history, noted members, etc. But since wikis are collaborative projects, we'll need to work together to do it.
-
The only use for a wiki would be for a "Post info about your game" section, which is subject to vandalism.
I can't really see any other use for it.
-
It WOULD be fun.
However we'd need to make some sort of thing that stops people from signing up as other people.

Give them the ultimatum that if they do so, they will be banned?
A Charas Wiki would be cool, and this way there's less chance of another ordeal like the previous try. I'm not sure how much I could contribute, but I could try. Plus I could spelling/grammar/syntax the entries to death if you want.
-
It doesn't seem to me like there could be much info in a Charas wiki.
-
Well, it's jut an idea. If someone gets really passionate about doing it, we'll do it - I'm sure we can find enough Charas stuff to fill a wiki.
-
I guess it'd probably be fun to do. :p
-
It would be interesting, but I agree with Osmose here. Someone that dislikes the forum or has a bone to pick with a certain person would just eventually ruin it.
-
I could write pages upon pages about myself..
-
I already made one of mine on that site for the entire Brethren Steel quintology. Not done so no link, but yeh. I wouldn't need it.
-
Well, should it happen, we should make a system so you don't sign up.
Instead, accounts are made by Warxe or whoever is running the wiki by request on the forum. That way, we can't get boned over by trolls like Lucifer and friends.

That sounds good. :)
But there's always the problem of Warxe or whoever not seeing it for a while due to being away for a week or something.
-
Wait, this suddenly sounds like a good idea because I know I'll have my own section.
-
Generally Useless, but fun, and I most likely will end up getting a section, so I guess it's a good idea.
-
I must have my own section too. I demand it! *posspam*
This Charas wiki idea keeps seeming better and better.
-
I wonder if the Metal Tears demo was the best demo to come from this site? Maybe ChaoticDeath's Zelda demo was better. It certainly have more people posting about it.
-
Voila! http://editthis.info/charas_project/Main_Page (http://editthis.info/charas_project/Main_Page). Go nuts.
EDIT: By the way, I haven't figured out a way to pre-register users, but if trolling gets too bad, we can easily prevent new users from registering. Also, I'll be giving admin status to a few members, so that in case something like that does happen, we don't have to wait for one guy who happens to be away for a week to restore everything.

http://editthis.info/charas_project/MrMister
-
I'm loving this.
-
Oh, is that what you wanted the wiki info for? I thought you were going to make one for your own game. Well, cool.
I'll probably get real bored one night and wikitize all sorts of odd historical Charas events.
-
the Alex, MrMister, Razor, and Trevlac pages are up. I think Razor is writing SMB's right now. Also, the "Moderators" page links to all current moderators.
-

What? No. I never said that. Who do you think you are; Ondore?
Anyway, what I have done is a fuckton of minute (read: my-newt) things. Also there are things that need fixin' that I've pointed out cause that page is locked and I don't got admin hax.
edit: Lol fuckton isn't censored.
-
I put a few things in, but there's still lots of stuff to do. Also added Razor as a sysop, and I'll do so for anyone else who wants.
-
Sweet. Just got round to checking it out. I'll contribute.
-
*Doubts own section* DUR!
It's looking good so far.
We allowed to add our own? Or only the members who actually matter?
-
You can add whatever the hell you want, as long as it's related to Charas or RPG Maker.
EDIT: Also, it would be appreciated if you added more than just your own - add to an article, or start a new one, or whatever.
Also, I'll allow free registration for about another week, then I'll close it and get a Wiki Account Request thread up or something.
-
I'm so considering weither it's worth my time putting a section about Star-Scape on it, that'd be cool... With our rise in attempt of stealing all charas's members and shizzle, and maybe even host Red's all your base parody again...
But then I relise I can't be arsed atm.
-
O_o What happened to the Wiki? The text turned white.
-
Right now, Moose is in the process of changing the color scheme to match Charas.
Also, White, if you can get an article about Star-Scape up there, I'll give you a cookie - and maybe even give you sysop status.
-
I thought it was about Charas? XD
-
Yeah, and Star-Scape spawned from Charas, so it's related.
-
I added complete resources upload team. I'm somewhat new to WIKI even though I'm sysop of Megaten WIKI. It is different from actually making pages than keeping things tidy XD

Here's some good readin' for you. (http://editthis.info/charas_project/Red_Giant)
Also, I'm too lazy to get started on your own. One day.
-
I colored that wiki.
YOU BETTER ****ing ENJOY IT.

L.o.L.
-
I really don't like the color scheme... it just doesn't work on the wiki.
And why is every member page retarded?
-
Now, when you say retarded...
Also, check your page.
-
Actual page'd. That took forever... I need to learn how to type less.
-
Wow, I've done a fuckton of changes.
Mainly fixing little things, making new pages for wankers who haven't made their articles yet, making templates, and adding articles to categories.
Wow, I am the recent changes list.
-
rofl. I swear, nearly everything that Razor has wrote has had some form of hilariousness to it.
EDIT: Technically, if this is going to keep strong, shouldn't this topic be sticked?
-
EDIT: Also, it would be appreciated if you added more than just your own - add to an article, or start a new one, or whatever.
Indeed, I was also hoping to add a section on the Avatar Wars game (the RPG Maker version), seeing as how I'm trying to make it a community project.
Any ideas for the other mods of the wiki?
-
Slowly addding stuff.
Who is "Admin" on there and why can't they just use their normal name?
-
Alright, I added a handful of crappy pointless stuff, and am currently working on my article.
EDIT: Finished my article. Ftw.
-
Looks like a good idea mateys!
-
I'm doing my best to tackle the massive History of Charas article and trying to focus on major events that either 1) changed how the forums operated or 2) got a lot of people excited.
Problem is, even though I was an admin, I was gone for, like, a year. So I missed a lot of stuff. Any help would be appreciated. Heck, even if it's some minor stuff, feel free to add it.
-
"This article is horribly biased. It was probably written by MrMister.
Please edit this page to remove the bias, unless you're MrMister, in which case you should probably not do anything."
I believe this is of the 'win' variety
-
I read about two of you (Warxe and sai'kar) and it looks great so far. I am not tring to ba a pain here but if I ever get good enough at systems I could get noted there but I won't complain neither if I never do.
-

If you click it, it redirects to Warxe. I guess the creator of the wiki can't use a name outside of Admin.
-
Um I can code web pages and teh like but only up to a certain extent. I'll look aroungd at what I could do. Note I know basic html code Color, font tags, body tags, tables etc.
Oh and how does login work over there? (non messing around mind you.)
-
What the fag is this:
"Hello link spammer.
Just so you know, google does not follow links off this page.
The links are tagged to be ignored by search engines, so go somewhere else. All you are doing is annoying users.
Adding links here will not help you page rank
Thanks,
Rob
-a sysadmin who doesn't need sex ;) "
I didn't put any linx in my page this edit O_O
-
It does that because by default it blocks the word sex.
Why were you putting the word sex in an article anyway, cowboy? ;)
-
try word evasion like sex or something
-

I was telling da story of da time we went to Venice together.. :(
And that's not it, cause I tooked out all of my linkz, and it worked.
And I still have 'sexy' in my article.
-
Say, I just finished mine, though I'm not sure as how to put my picture up there in the smal block on the right, anyone can help?
-
Started the noob page, but I have to leave now, could someone else finish?
-
Added my page and am now working on the Charas Forums (Not the Category or Charas Forums forums).
-
I removed "sex" from the filter, which was giving some problems to me and other people.
-
Weee!
Almost done! Just waiting on some info from Sai :)
-
Pfft, look it up yourself. I'm researching the entire 4-year blasted history of this place and you can't find up a list of mods?
-
Hey, Saikar. Didn't Ghostclown used to have a way to go back in time in the forums and check out old topics? Perhaps that would make it easier for you, cause I assume that the old topics where there were most action could have easily gotten erased.
-
Robotam, that was probably the search option or something.
Unless you mean some sort of site that lived on old caches.
Also, why haven't I seen you on MSN lately, and why aren't you on the wikipedia yet?
-
Yeah, it was obviously some kind of cache page. All I can remember is that I clicked on a link that lead me to the time when Charas was white. When you say it like that it sounds like I was sucked into a science-fiction movie, but I dunno how else to explain it. I should look for that old topic some time. :|
As for why you haven't seen me on msn lately is probably cause I forget to change my offline status a lot, and about the wikipedia thing I guess I'm not very interested.
-
I have finished the Character section of the Charas Breakout (http://editthis.info/charas_project/Charas_Breakout) article.
-
How do I create a new page?
There should be a tutorial for working on the Wiki.
-
Just type in a page, and if It's not there, click on the "this exact article" words or whatever, and then you can make it.
-
Weeeee
Just did the Charas Project Official Magazine Team page Whatever I happen to decide to stumble upon next I'll do . . .

Thx. I'm new to Wikis. :P
New Found Truth page, here I come.
Edit: Done. Back to the n00b page! :D
Edit #2: Actualy, whoever added the last paragraph really nailed the head on the coffin. I just thought I'd make a page on 1337.
-
It's called the Internet Archive (http://www.archive.org/index.php).
Earliest version of Charas archived. (http://web.archive.org/web/20030407073319/http://charas-project.net/)
-
Okay, to point out,
I'm actualy Bens second cousin, He is my mums cousin, via his dad. You might wanna change that bit.
And if anyones gunna do my page, great, cos i aint gunna. I might do star-scapes on sunday, though, if I can find the time.

Yesh! Go Waybackmachine!
-
The wayback machine is half maddening. It got the names of many now-deleted threads but only the actual content of a few of them. I actually tracked down a few legendary ones such as "RRWP vs Gary Kertopermono, Welcome in the arena!!!" by Alex and "Operation STOP THE POP!!!!" by Reain.

Bugger. It doesn't have Charas Pub 1. I'll never see it again :(

Do you have to log in to do this? I messed with the login and tried to log in with the same self as I am now but that doesn't work so I guess you remade yourselves on there?
-
You don't have to login to search, but to edit pages you need to be logged in, so essentially, yes.
-
Hey I did one! One page for Rpgmaker come take a look. Please do not delete the wiki link. It can help others for reference. :D
-
...ElementalHero, you have a stark history of neglecting punctuation and grammar and what not, I hope it hasn't carried onto the wiki. *hasn't checked article yet*
-
That's because I dont take my time when I type this time I was careful. Just tell me if there is any mistakes. I made it much longer though, there is some stuff I left out. We do need another related topic on Don Miguel- the imfamous and legendary rpgmaker pirate.
-
Your article could use some cleaning up, and having a link to Wikipedia to learn more is kinda whack - we should add our own stuff and define it rather than pointing to Wikipedia.
Of course, because it's a wiki anyone can go and fix your spelling, as I did a little bit at the top while adding an expansion notice.
-
2 things
Do we really need a "1337" article?
Do we really need a "R-Tard" article?
-
I'll continue working on it as I have more time. Thanks for pointing out the flaws.
-
Also, try to use the Preview button to check up on your work, instead of editing the page over and over - it clogs up the Recent Changes page.
-
Who the hell is "Sacred Pen"?
You know, it helps if you sign in as your username, people.
-
Who are the admins of the wiki?

I know my name's there, but I did not make it. Hell, only thing I've done is edited one thing because it was offensive to my ***.

I should signs in, but I'm not sure what to put in there xD

For some reason it says I created that page, but there happens to exist the glaring fact that I didn't. Why? Just, why?
-
See, either that's incredibly difficult to believe or someone figured out your password and that's incredibly difficult to believe.
And Drace, check it recently? I totally fixed it :p
-
I just edited a few bits on Red's page, Starscapes page, and Pops page,
I'm pretty sure I can handle editing shizzle, so might add some stuff to that later.
If anyone could do my Page I'd then edit it to its full correctness, but I aint gunna start it off, wouldn't know what to put, really.

Totally.

:happy:
-
K, why the hell is Elementalhero in there and not me? Or say InsaneJP? Blackskullwarlock? lol really not mad about this, just wondering.
-
Just make your own article.
That's what everybody else is doing.
-
I think Drace should stick with Tomo-chan, but if he were to go classic, I think he should go with the Puss-in-boots avatar he had FOREVER!
-
This'll make me look stupid buuut, I'm really not use to web creation and shizz. So, simply, how do I make a new article?
EDIT: Scratch that, I've stumbled upon a solution.
-
-just got around to reading Midnight's article-
She vanished from the net completely, haven't seen her on ForeverNight at all. Nor is that her site. >_>...
Hrm... Now I actually wanna read most of this. Gah.
-
It ISN'T?
The site I put there is in her profile. I just figured that she was "Raven".
-
She's probably been there, as I think I saw a few posts by Luke, one of her friends, but it's hardly her site.
-
Her myspace was last logged into on the 16th.
-
I think the Wiki is as big a success as most of my projects.
-
Maybe we should start working harder to make it successful. :blush:
Joking aside, sometime soon when I have the time, I'm going to propose a few projects for the wiki to help make it more useful. Obviously, I won't be able to do it all on my own, but hopefully the combined knowledge of Charas could help.
I'm talking things like Tutorials, A Guide to RPG Maker, Links to important resources (Charaset template, anyone?), explanations of how a chipset works, etc. Anything to help someone get used to working with RPG Maker and work on it. Anyone with knowledge about Ruby, for example, could start an article on Ruby, add in maybe a function list, etc.
It's kind of hard finding a balance between website, forum, and wiki, but hopefully all will be equally useful.
-
Cool idea, I'm pretty sure Trev knows about Ruby, not sure exactualy.
Annnndddd noones done my page. >.> And im too modest, (Yeah, that) to do it myself.
-
There you go, you lazy bastard.
-
After rethinking stuff, the only cause that really required a team was the tutorials wikiproject (http://editthis.info/charas_project/WikiProject_Tutorials).
I am still supporting other additions though. The RPG Maker article needs to be fleshed out REALLY BAD, and we could certainly use a few reference pages for things like a list of those little symbols for text, charaset and battleset templates, a reference for the dimensions needed for RPG Maker resources, etc.
-
Will the following people kindly identify themselves?
# Jack Mac
# Lucas irineu
# SlayingMantis
# TMNTransformers
# Zero~Ichizo
# ZidZabre
Furthermore, if you're going to sign up, for God's sake use your forum name.
I can't trace everyone.
I'm guessing SlayingMantis might be Asakura but that's all I know.
-
I did a quick search of my name in the wiki. I'm mentioned like seven times, and under the "See also" section in a few, but I have no page. Bummer XD
-
ZeroIchizo is ZeroX5 (it's my brother)
-
I'm pretty sure Lucas irineu is lucas_irineu. I might be wrong though. :p
