User blog:Blastion/Cleaning Up the Wiki

Hey guys, Blastion, one of your admins here. Most of you know me as _Gold_ on the forums, while some of you know me as just flat out Pluto in game. I have been a fan of this game (probably because I played it since day 1 of the release) and have been playing ever since. So you could say I'm a veteran of this game or even a pro... But the real dealio here is that I want to help others get better and eventually get my level of playing. [not saying I'm the greatest but I'm ok xD] The first thing that usually helps is the forum. We have thousands of threads already created for people to dive into with hundreds being posted on everyday. We discuss everything and any question you need will be answered. We have a team of great moderators (not because I'm on it) who would be more than happy to help. But, after the forum, which is more a social place, people come to the wiki for more hardcore...to the facts information.

First things first, I would like to see a few changes on the wiki. On the majority of pages [due to my overload of work] I haven't been able to work on most of them. We need to create a few things to solve some issues currently on this forum. Templates are the key to most of the organization problems. Templates are definitly one of the key aspects of wiki and they're relatively simple to use; you plug in information into a format and voila it appears in one uniform fashion. We need these templates:

1. Armor templates (includes HP/Shield, Price, upgrade, level 2,4,6 etc)

2. Weapon templates (includes damage, upgrade, price etc)

3. Map templates (includes gamemodes etc)

4. Evolve templates (includes %, effect)

I think these four are good to start. I will try and make one myself.

Next, we need to make the wiki come alive. We need more pictures, more pics, more videos, more slideshows; and the wiki will really get much better. Not only does it look very dull currently, but pages also need to be added on to; we can add much more than the current bare-bones.

I need to wrap it up here as I have to go @.@. Don't think that I'm just nagging you, just believe in me; and believe in the spirit of the wiki.

Happy CoMI (the update is coming soon)
