Did you know that we have a wiki that every Wing Commander fan can contribute to? The Wing Commander Encyclopedia is where you?ll be able to find all kinds of real world information about Wing Commander. Wingnuts can find landing pages for all the major Wing Commander products from which they can explore various areas about each product. The encyclopedia area also contains categories like Images, where we are building the most extensive Wing Commander image archive ever, Cinematics, Behind the Screens, Downloads, and a number of others.

A reference from Super Wing Commander, the Terran Knowledge Bank is the new name for the main content area of WCPedia. This is where you?ll find articles written in the style of a 29th century researcher stationed on McAuliffe VI. Users can find the major categories like Characters, Ships, Battles, along with dozens of others within the Knowledge Bank.

To prevent automated spam abuse, new CIC Wiki accounts need to be individually approved. When registering, be sure to put a line or two into the 'biography' box to prove you're not a robot. If you're in a hurry to have your account approved, you can contact us on IRC, via e-mail or on the Forums.

It might be ctrl-f5 instead. I could only reproduce it in Explorer, but it seems to be fixed there. Can you try again? Thanks.
 
It is Ctrl-F5; I still use Firefox at home so it should do the trick.

Who's running WCPedia these days, and where is the most work needed?
 
I'm still heading up the project and work is needed everywhere. A lot of WC1 stuff is in, but there's still missions to be finished and script data to add.

Lots of earlier character bios need rewrites to be more readable.

I think finishing everything related to WC1 is a good place to start.
 
I'll breeze through too and see what I can dig up for the project. Something I can contribute to since my skill set doesn't lean on the artistic side.

Kind of mirroring Capi's question in what needs being done. I do want to help I just had no idea where to set my starting line.
 
When in doubt, this is a good place to start WC1 Temp Page.

We need to finish WC1 completely. That temp page doesn't list everything, but it's a good starting point. The whole TEMP directory is a good place to see what's been left hanging as well: https://www.wcnews.com/wcpedia/Category:TEMP

One major thing is to make sure Missions are set. It would be nice to fully retire Game Guides (CIC Teal) at some point.
