Well, the WCPedia meeting came and went, and a good bit of progress was made. After a few attempted games of Armada, we got down to work.
LOAF revealed that Arena began with a very... un-Wing Commander storyline before the developers were set straight regarding Wing Commander Canon. The WCPedia is, in addition to a fun project, an attempt to create a canon database for future developers to consult. We don't want any Burning Battles or for the Confederation to have its first civil war.
The last major effort on the WCPedia was based around the original Wing Commander. This time, it will be based around individual missions. From there, the encyclopedia will fill out.
We have determined to create example pages, paragons of our wiki-editing might that will inspire and set new editors straight on how pages are to be done.
The timeline has been modified, with individual year pages redirecting to that day's entry on the main year page.
Remember, there is no need to try and make things that don't make sense make sense. Even if you have a great explanation about why TCS Tiger Claw and TCS Tiger's Claw don't look at all alike, it doesn't really matter. Some aspects of Wing Commander canon don't make sense and it doesn't have to. It might be best not to think about it...
