Wikipedia

written by Evil Trout on February 25th, 2008 @ 10:16 AM

A week ago, someone added an article to wikipedia about our game, and we were delighted because it was fairly detailed. We were sad to see though, that by morning it was deleted.

Someone started a thread on our flamebate forums asking about it, and we bounced around various ideas for making a new article that wouldn't be rejected.

Then, this morning, out of left field, I was delighted to find out that the article had been brought back! Apparently one of our users is an admin on wikipedia, and brought it back and made the necessary changes to prevent it from being deleted again. It helps to have users in high places!

    Ahh… “Wikipedia: New facts created daily”

    Wouldn’t you be more proud of an Encyclopedia Dramatica article?

    Haha, I guess I would in a way. Actually one of the admins on ED emailed me saying that a lot of the ED crew were enjoying the game and were going to write an article.

    I guess that never happened?

    Hasn’t happened yet. But it will, eventually. I’ve been too out of it to really do anything like that recently, plus am dealing with some drama on another forum I’m a moderator of, in addition to being busy engorging my E-Peen… so I haven’t got around to it.

    Some other users have also been planning on creating the page, but just not making the time yet.

    It’s definitely on the to-do list. Although, for the hell of it, I’ll send a message to the ED users mailing list.
