[Bandit LOAF]

Big changes are ahead for the WCPedia - would you like to know more? If you're a WCPedia contributor, would like to become one or are just interested in learning about the bright future of the project then you should stop in to #WingNut tomorrow evening at 7 pm EST!

You can learn more about connecting to #WingNut here or access the Java-based version of the chat here. To sweeten the pot, we will be giving away the keys to a copy of Privateer from GOG to one lucky visitor!

We've got a few big things in store for WCPedia in the coming year. Anyone who is even remotely interested in the WCPedia project should try to attend...oh and a copy of Privateer for one lucky wingnut should be motivation enough!

We'll also be online this evening working on some things.

I'm not sure I have much I can contribute but I'll try to come and listen in on what you guys are up to.

Great news on the WCPedia front. We got a lot of progress done in terms of bringing people up to speed on what's in store for the future and organizing some things.

Shades has done a fantastic job creating the Secret Ops Landing Page. It's still a work in progress, but another key piece in WCPedia!

The Armada page is moving along with all the Confed fighters uploaded. One special thing that happened is a new format for fighters. Mostly this applies to fighters that show up repeatedly (the big 4 being Arrow, Dralthi, Broadsword, Rapier) but I've done some major work to the Arrow article. Gone is the one large table, instead each subsection has a 2 column table. We've got some cool ideas in mind for the larger tables, but that's a discussion for a future date.

Overall, it was a good meeting. It would be great to get the basic stuff in for all the games before the birthday in August. 6 weeks sounds like we should be able to make a good dent in it!
