I have decided to go ahead and launch the wiki. It still needs quite a bit of work in the backend (I haven't created the privacy policy or copyright pages yet, the disclaimer is pretty generic and I'm still using the default logo), but I feel it's more important to go ahead and give everyone access so you can get started working on the fun stuff.

The wiki is located at http://wiki.archiefans.com - those of you who are registered on the forum will automatically be registered there. If you are still seen as a guest even though you're logged in to the forum, you will need to log out of the forum and log back in again. This is due to a change in the way cookies are stored that I made a while back - the change makes cookies from the main site work for the subdomain too Smiley

A few basics before you get started:

Do not copy information from Wikipedia. You may use it as a reference, as long as you mention this in your article, but you may not copy information from Wikipedia as it is under a different license than the one I'm using.

Please place things in their proper namespace:

Titles: all articles about a particular title published by Archie Comics (example: Betty and Veronica would be .../Titles:Betty_and_Veronica)
Stories: all articles about a particular story (.../Stories:Story_Name)

Any articles on a particular issue of a title should be created as a subpage of that title's main page:

Betty and Veronica #1 would be created as .../Titles:Betty_and_Veronica/Issue_1 (the "Issue" helps clarify what the article is about)

All other articles go in the main namespace and do not require a specific prefix.

For now we just need to focus on getting the articles started - we can fill in details and add references later on.

Yeah, the original post is from Dec. '07.  Wonder whatever happened with the wiki.  I know several members here either index or edit for GCD, so maybe folks just stuck with that site.

I seem to recall that it wasn't there by the time I registered. I remember once trying to check it out to see what was on it, but couldn't find anything there. In any case, it would have been lost in the crash with everything else, I suppose.

I believe the wiki was supposed to be separate from this site. 

By the way, I'm not a web site expert by any means, but I've never seen an entire forum deleted without intent(losing the host as one example.).

It might have been a directed attack by a hacker, or it could have been physical. A head crash on a disc (if the entire site, or at least the root directory, was on that one disc) would have been disabling, to say the least. Data can be recovered from a crashed disc, but it's an expensive process. All data is supposed to be backed up by the host, but in this case it obviously wasn't.
