category: general [glöplog]
The new Wiki based exotica site has gone online! A cool upshot of this is that there is that the old Scenery Amiga & C64 demoscene history database is available in Wiki form. Please check your groups page and help bring it up to date..

finally, I already wondered what happened to that wiki ;)
There's already the scene.nl wiki. Too many wikis about the same subject lead to... profit.
Not a bad idea to make it into a wiki version. So, so much to add/correct though.. Quite a task for any number of people. Also, I pray only people with actual knowledge go and edit it. Imagine some newschooler going at it using Freax vol.1 as their source, adding all of the book's numerous made up / misunderstood "facts" without checking.. :)

Ok, I _really_ hope you're not using Scenery as your reference material. :)
The circle is complete
Hollowman: Lol, I had totally forgotten writing about that! :D
But yes, people tend to start believing in misinformation if it's repeated often enough. I haven't been into that nitpicking mood much lately, but when I do, going over the Wiki-Scenery might not be a bad idea :)

How about auto-generating some pages based on CSDB which has pretty much all the info you need on the C64 scene?
Xernobyl: irony has it that Scenery's platform-centric focus was a reason for SceneWiki to be initiated in the first place.
from platform-centric to nationality-centric - good call :)
Could you tell me where the nationality centric bit occurs?
Probably because it's .nl - registered in Neverland!
Am I the only one hating "Wiki-based sites" with a fucking vengeance?
gloom: why? I spend most my free time on Wookiepedia and the information you can get there is astounding! I never knew so many people worked on both Deathstars!!!

If by that you mean websites that pretend to be a normal websites and use mediawiki as a CMS, then yes. I have no problem with Wikis themselves.
