Wiki Enhancement
Posted: Sun Sep 18, 2011 8:49 pm
During this past week, there has been a lot of activity on the OldUnreal Wiki. It had pretty much fallen into disuse and was mostly inhabited by the ever-present spam-bots. This has been stopped, unused stuff has been deleted, useful stuf have been properly linked to where they should be, and many spam-pages have been deleted.
The main page has been reworked entirely and things organized so that it does not look bad anymore and is usable. Things are neatly ordered and can be accessed easily. Pages that had been created but not linked anywhere are now linked to other pages so that every page is now accessible, I cannot understand why the original creators did not do this from the start.
All pages have been properly categorized, including each individual page for translation files..
New content is also there: the Mapping section has been enriched with articles detailing the workings of 227 actors like Projectors, Particle Forces, Weather Emitters, and the research by GreatEmerald on BSP buildings has been archived for your convenience. Tons of typos have been corrected everywhere too.
That's where we stand as of now, and thanks to those who participated.
What we do need now is more content: You know stuff, take a minute to share it on the wiki: it's mostly open to unregistered users, so you may freely create your new articles - and don'tf orget to put categories if you do. Here's a quick list of things which are needed:
Anything you might want to add on scriping/modding is also welcomed, as well as anything not mentionned you might want to share, including links on Unreal, UT or Unreal 2, as well as live clans. Let's hope somethings will be added soon.

- A tutorial on Dynamic Zones
- A tutorial on Vegetation generators
- The Monsters list is mostly empty
- The Weapons are unfinished
- Items are unfinished
