Andrelvis Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I was wondering what you people thought of this idea... It seems very good to me, and we would all be able to contribute our knowledge about the Knights of the Old Republic series... What do you think?

Prime Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 You mean add entries to the Wikipedia? They are already there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrelvis Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 No, I mean making a whole wiki about the KotOR series, in a place like wikicities, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ET Warrior Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Well, howsabout you tell me what the point would be? There is already PRETTY much everything one could ever care to know about KOTOR already online. If someone wants to know they can google it.

Soogz Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Yes, when in doubt about something, google it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrelvis Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 Yes, but some info is found in some places, but not in others, and some are conflicting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET Warrior Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 And your wiki entry would not conflict with anything? How would people know if your wiki was correct? What if the other website was right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 ^^^^ I agree. There already is too much meterial on the internet that is KOTOR related. All some one would have to do is google it or join some forum (like LF) that has discussions about the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prime Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Feel free to do it, but it would just be another site as far as I'm concerned... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChAiNz.2da Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I'm not very fond of Wiki's...frankly because anyone can add an entry into it.... Just think if the infamous SuperShadow, or his wannabe's got ahold of one I know of far too many trolls that would be itching to spread their propaganda. Those that don't know any better would be the ones 'hurt' most... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth333 Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I am not fond of Wiki's either. They can be practical sometimes but for accurate information I prefer to look somewhere else. There are already a few Kotor wikis around. Anyways, many Kotor npcs now appear in the starwars databank: http://starwars.com/databank/droid/hk47/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/droid/t3m4/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/darthmalak/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/joleebindo/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/carthonasi/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/canderousordo/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/bastilashan/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/missionvao/index.html http://starwars.com/databank/character/calonord/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MdKnightR Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 I think there is already enough on the Star Wars wiki that cross-references KOTOR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emperor Devon Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Wikpedia actually is a fairly good source for KOTOR info. And not everyone can edit it - I tried to make a couple changes myself, and it wouldn't let me. I've only noticed one inacurracy - They claim a Force-sensitive Yhuuzan Vhong trys to take over the galaxy right after the war with the Yhuuzan Vhong. The STAR WARS official site, to be honest, is a rather poor source of info. They make it look like Bastila was in charge of them mission to find the Star Forge. As for the Wiki... That would be pointless. If you want to know about the game, then PLAY IT, for crying out loud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hallucination Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 Not only is it pointless but it'll get an award for being the biggest waste of effort in the gaming community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hannibal Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 The council did send Bastila and "The Padawan" to find the Star Forge and since she was the Sr Jedi she was in charge. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastila Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Theres loads of KOTOR websites information out there, you got star wars offical site and the TSL websites got a story bit on there about the KOTOR and before which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOssusKeeper Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 i think wiki's are whacky if you add something that is accurate someone who thinks they know better comes along and changes it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 ... I've only noticed one inacurracy - They claim a Force-sensitive Yhuuzan Vhong trys to take over the galaxy right after the war with the Yhuuzan Vhong.... IIRC, there is a vague reference to the YV in KOTOR somewhere, i think it might be in one of Canderous' rambling stories... In any event, it is quite vague, and if taken literally, actually doesnt fit in with what was revealed about the YVs history by the end of the NJO....I think it was an EU fanboy thing that devs chose to throw in.. just like the whole Mandalore successor biz in TSL, there is only one true mandalore dammit !! mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jedi3112 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 As for the Wiki... That would be pointless. If you want to know about the game, then PLAY IT, for crying out loud! I agree, but if somebody really feels the urge to make one, I think that there shouldn't be any spoilers in it. Also I've read that article on several sites. However I think that most things don't belong in information about Darth Revan. First off it shouldn't contain anything about the gender. I also think that it should only contain the history of Revan up to the point of where malak fires on Revan's bridge. Make it seem like Revan is dead, but don't actually say Revan is dead. You could just end with that the ship crashed into a planet or something along those lines. Also don't mention he created HK-47. And nothing about M5. Basicly just keep any essential game information out of it. On a side note I'm not too happy with LF's interference in the canonical ending of KOTOR. I think we're the proper ones to decide what happened in both games. And that would probably be different for everybody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
