Talk:Meta:Content

It would be nice to have some key areas identified which the manual really must address. I'm thinking things like how to read the character page, how taxes and food work, and how elections work -- really basic stuff, but where there are still a few misconceptions floating around.

I wonder if it would be worth moving the in-game help files to the Wiki, and changing the help links in the game to Wiki links. -- Dolohov

Ok first what is it about the Atamara Times that is liked in particular? The formating or content? Regardless I guess. It doesn't get that many hits though. Neither does the BM Newpaper Agency format of papers per realm.

So here is an idea. How about we take both formats. Each realm submits their own articles to their papers. The realms can police themselves with that. Than we have a single person from each island to compile a Island Edition from the "local papers" of interesting articles... alot like the www.worldnews.com format. Then we have one of us compile a interesting articles from the separate island newspapers and set up an "In the News" compilation of all the island Newspapers the same manner that the Wikipedia does on the main page of the wiki.

If you want people to look at and use something, you have to advertise it and give it the prominance you think it deserves.

On a related note we could do featured articles like the Wikipedia does as well.

First on style: Please sign your postings here. There's a nice button for that (2nd from the right).

Second: Yes I am all for distributing the work, let everyone work on what he cares about most, distribute the rest (that nobody wants) around.

Third: Featured articles is a really good idea, but we have to have a lot of articles first... :-)
