thanks, how the Earthbound wiki coming?

tacopill

eh. been busy with other stuff.....Actually, i'm not busy now. I think i will set it up now.

But i still need a name. I currently have "Independent Mother Earthbound Wiki", with "MotherEarthBoundWiki" as the subdomain; but it's kind of long. If that's fine, then  i can simply update the wiki i have setup here, saving me some work.

If not, then i just put the wiki in a new location with a new name.

Alright, we are all set.


Click the link!

Keep in mind, there are no templates, policies, etc. in place currently. This is both a good thing, and a bad thing:

Good: We won't be accused of plagiarism, as we have no content.
Bad: We have no support structure just yet....or templates...or categories....or policies....but then again, we are just beginning. 

To avoid litigations, please don't copy any pages form any other wiki. I don't wish to put a sour taste in anyone's mouth; but we've seen what happens when content is taken from other wikis. (And rather than be specific, it might just be easier to ban the action, rather than be specific on Page Types or Wiki's).

...... (pauses for a minute to read over text)

Ok....maybe if it's a really good template, like core of the Navbox Template, or the Listen Template for descriptions of OGG files. But that's it.

Do you already have someone to whip you up a logo?
"Will you stop?!!? What fools!
Haven't you begun to understand? The kingdom being ruined and us left in this state...
Isn't it petty, little battles like this that have caused it?
Believing in your friends and embracing that belief by forgiving failure...
These feelings have vanished from our hearts."

I, infact, do not. Have anyone to recommend?

Edit: I am also looking for people to help run it......*Hint* *Hint* *Nudge* *Nudge*

I haven't played any of the Earthbound games aside from SSBB, but I can probably help a little. I can write some basic articles and proofread some more in-depth articles.

I could give it a shot myself, if you tell me what you want to have exactly.

Hm....good question....

Well, first, is there anything iconic about the EarthBound series? a special font, a logo, a character?

What could be said to symbolize the entire franchise?

In EarthBound, I think they call it Psi, rather than PK. Don't know about the other two parts, though.

As for a iconic item... The Franklin Badge, perhaps? It appears in all three games.
Or maybe a globel, like in the Mother logo...

EDIT:
Another idea would be a Mr. Saturn.

So, how about one of these:


  • Mr. Saturn Standing in front of/next to the Globe.
  • The robot standing in this photo, on top of The Franklin Badge






or some combination with all of them?
