Alliance Requests

[Hotchmoney]

Out of curiosity, if Touch Generations were to have its own Wiki, what articles would we have in mind? :|

Articles on every game that is labeled under the Touch Generations brand (including Nintendogs), as well as articles on the Wii series (Wii Sports, Wii Play, etc.).

does that include Art Style games?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Touch!_Generations_titles

It's not on the list, but we could definitely expand this to a "Casual Games Wiki" (but perhaps with a better title, as that sounds a bit degrading).

if that's true, are you going to restrict it to Nintendo-Games? or have all "Casual Games"

[onetwentysix]

This thread is to request joining the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance for ambitious, high-quality, independently hosted Wikis that are interested in joining the movement.

Um, should someone create a Sonic the Hedgehog Wiki and a Donkey Kong Wiki?            

[tacopill]

Nah. if you look at this thread's past posts, you'll notice a few things:

* Only Nintendo Franchises (so no Sonic)
* No multiple wiki's covering the same area (see Super Mario Wiki

[onetwentysix]

Yeah, but didn't Sonic appear in Super Smash Bros Brawl??

[Naesala]

Yeah, but didn't Sonic appear in Super Smash Bros Brawl??

so he is a SEGA Franchise not a Nintendo Franchise

If anything he would be mentioned in the brawl wiki, which may end up being the exsisting brawl wika minus the wika domain.

I would include all Touch Gen. games to start and allow the wiki to cover any first- (or second-)party game that had been approved as "casual" by a committee on the wiki. This committee could be comprised of admins, etc., and would investigate any game (within reason) for which someone had submitted a request for approval. Committee members would post findings and discuss in a thread (within a committee-only forum), and then take a vote on whether or not to approve the game. Either way, the result of the vote would be released to the rest of the wiki, and coverage could begin on a game that was just approved immediately. Articles about games currently in the review process could still be in the mainspace, but would be flagged as "potentially irrelevant content" or something along those lines.

Hello. I'm an administrator of Wikifang, a Telefang Wikia. Telefang is a small "franchise" consisting of only two games made by Smilesoft. We're covering other games by Smilesoft, too, all of which have been released only on Nintendo consoles.
I was wondering if there's an article limit for joining the alliance. I'm not requesting it for now (we're stuck with Wikia anyways, even though I've wanted to break out of it for quite some time now), but we might want to join you some day.

Thanks
Just to let you know, I wholly support the idea of NIWA.

EDIT: By the way. Can't change my profile, it's returning an error. And I don't want to sound rude here, but could you please write the server and channel on the chat page instead of throwing an java applet in my face? Thanks :)

[Naesala]

I never heard of those games

[Tucayo]

Hello, thanks for your interest in NIWA. There is not a written limit, but we are currently working with a 200-article limit, which you already passed We would be happy to help you move out of wikia if you decide to.


Also, about the profile, I am trying to contact SMF so they can help us solve the problem, I hope it can be solved soon, sorry.
EDIT: Problem has been solved

I'm happy to hear that! Thanks for the offer, we'll think it over.

That was quick. Thanks!

Do any of us here have any plans to make a new Wiki, or are we still searching for affiliates?

[Naesala]

I wouldn't mind hosting a wiki, if only I knew how...

When could you add events to the calender?  I tired it (as a test only), but it didn't work.  [Perhaps it is admins only.]

Sadly, even admins can't.... I will see what is the problem
