[VOTE] Final Decision on which wiki should be "official"

[albinorhino321]

There are now more than 6 wikis around StarMade. It's time that the community makes a final decision on which wiki should become "official" so that the effort of wiki editors can be focused on a single wiki.

Factors to consider for choosing this wiki are:

• User Interface
  
  How easy is it to navigate the wiki, does the layout of the wiki look good?
• How easy is it to edit articles?

[*]Is the wiki flooded with spam?
[*]Existing content of wiki - how many articles does the article have? Are they up to date?


Overview of all wikis:
http://star-made.org/wiki/ - Current "official" wiki located on the main site: Few articles, difficult to edit, no search function
http://wiki.starmade.rtag.me - Has been offline for 'short' maintenance for multiple days now, otherwise littered with spam, a number of good articles
http://starmade.wikia.com - Has distracting ads, easy to edit, many articles, though most of them are of poor quality and out of date
http://www.starmadewiki.com - Good layout, easy UI, More than 100 articles and easy to navigate with the help of navboxes
http://starmadegame.wikia.com - Only has 10 articles and is not being maintened (won't be included in survey)
http://star-made.wikia.com - Another clone wiki with nearly no articles (won't be included)

You have no jurisdiction to do this and your opinions should not be mentioned during any section of the survey. Although I can agree that people need to choose a wiki everyone will use. But maybe once the game\'s progressed a bit. new wikis will pop up, the game isn\'t even close to complete. so we shouldn\'t have to jump to a conclusion on wikis yet.

Those areas with the bolded text are what I find to be a bit too subjective for a survey. and could be worded differently. \"Easy, Good, Distracting, Many, Poor, Short, littered\" Are all subjective. They can all be varied depending on who is reading it. I may think something is more distracting then you do. or I might find something you find poor, decent or fairly made.

This survey is merely meant to serve the developers as a help and make it clear what the community thinks about which wiki should be used. I apologise of the title is misleading for you.

Many will be unaware of the number of existing wikis and would probably be too lazy to look through each wiki in detail. I tried to summarise each wiki as factually as possible. Some wiki summaries may be more negative, though that is then the truth about that particular wiki.

They\'re all very rigged. and this shouldn\'t be taking place while the rtag wiki is down, since it is still a wiki that\'s very dedicated. it\'s like telling everyone to climb a tree, when one guy just finished a 100m dash, and is still recovering. This is unbalanced, and as I said, should wait untill a later date.

And none of the above will be the \'official\' wiki, since the actual official wiki is soon getting a massive overhaul and the rtag database transferred to it (hopefully), without the spam ofc.

Also, appreciate the effort, but what Sweepea says holds true.
