What to do with GAE descriptions in Wiki?
« on: 26 November 2014, 14:03:09 »
We have our own Wiki now, but we still see many GAE specific things there.
I would vote to remove them as its just confusing, what do you think ?
Try Megaglest! Improved Engine / New factions / New tilesets / New maps / New scenarios

Yes its confusing , I think its better to backup wiki as it is , and upload backup somewhere safe like github or in megaglest site, and start to remove all non MG content.

It was going to be removed, but nobody has done it and I have no time.

Could you give a exampe on where it is confusign?, i understand the the MG wiki is "ours" but keeping all glest stuff at the same place makes good sense, does it not?

It is confusing because "What is GAE ? Where do I use it ? What does it do ?" etc etc. If someday GAE devs will revive the project , sure , they will have their wiki etc on github or elsewhere . So putting it in this logic , why don't we add wikis for other games too ? Because this is Megaglest , and wiki should be about MG only.

There's also still the archive at https://docs.megaglest.org - so we really don't need to keep another copy of information which is unlikely to change in the future (for vanilla Glest, GAE).

So, yes, docs.megaglest.org should be MG only. Maybe we can edit it in a joint effort sometime (winter holidays?) - until then I suggest we clean up whichever pages we touch.
