Oddworld Wiki
 
I know you can find this info elsewhere but I wanted to create a wiki on Oddworld, please, I need help adding info so if you like add an article.
http://oddworldinhabitants.wikia.com...Oddworld_Wiki#

Thankyou, I hope to add links to Oddworld Forums as well

So that's, what, five Oddworld wikis now?

What's the point when everyone is just going to go to TOL for their Oddinfo?

STM 12-29-2009 01:01 AM

I don't know, just wanted to do it, I wanted ot make mine the best wiki there is so I wanted to aks for help with editing if not then no worries

Josh 12-29-2009 03:14 AM

Type in Oddworld Wiki into Google and this thread is the 5th link.

Fuzzle Guy 12-29-2009 04:10 AM

Type in Perverts Convention and these forums come up first.

STM 12-29-2009 06:35 AM

thanks for the spam

Thanks for the gratuitous wiki.

Max the Mug has done a brilliant job with the Oddworld Encyclopedia. It has everything you could need to know about Oddworld, and more. The majority of Oddworld fans go to TOE for their Oddworld information. It's the most informative Oddworld encylopedia on the web, so I suggest you use that instead of trying to make your own.

Together, they prove your contribution redundant.

Josh 12-29-2009 11:12 AM

Well, the latter does. Oddworld Wiki is shit.

MeechMunchie 12-29-2009 11:14 AM

True, but some people seem to be uncomfortable with anything that doesn't look like Wikipedia.

Crashpunk 12-29-2009 01:54 PM

Woah 5 Oddworld Wikis!

Can't everybody be happy using the oddworld library

That's an entirely acceptable proposal, but if you really want to make a good wiki, you're going to have to put in the elbow grease yourself rather than beg others to do it for you.

It worked for Jimmy Wales.

I think a good Wikia is all we need to propel Oddworld to the next level.

STM 12-30-2009 05:29 AM

people like toe wikipedia interface thats why I did it, don't get me wrong my work is by far inferior but people are fickle and like to see what they like to see if you know what I mean...que

Aleks55 01-11-2010 07:18 PM

hooray another wiki to add to the list!

IThoughtIHadAGoodJob 01-12-2010 07:30 AM

Nice...ish.
No offense, but really, with all the work and accuracy of TOL, I don't see why you'd need anything else.

STM 01-13-2010 12:12 AM

be quite little noob, no joksing.

Wil 01-13-2010 12:25 AM

Thank you, IThoughtIHadAGoodJob.

MeechMunchie 01-13-2010 09:32 AM

That is the most acronym-requiring name I've ever seen, ITIHGJ.

Andrelvis 01-15-2010 12:26 AM

I just logged in oddworld.wikia.com and found out that because my friend who had created it (GameFreak) has been absent for so long, I've been given administrator powers in it. We had kind of co-created the wiki years ago.

I think it would be better if you contributed to oddworld.wikia.com instead of creating a new wiki... but it is your choice in any case.

EDIT: Your wiki is well designed, congrats ;)

I'd just call him GoodJob or GJ for short :)

Could you please change http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Gloktigi to Gloktogi. They are called Gloktogi, Gloktigi is the family name.

And fix this: http://oddworld.wikia.com/wiki/Quintrilogy

There you are, gave you administrative powers.

the layout and the info's great, but theres barely any references to back any of it up, how do you know Frayda Evryting's name is such?

I agree, that should be changed. I don't have MO or SW though, so I can't put up references related to them. Could you put up the reference there for Frayda Evryting, or tell me what reference I should put up?

Wil 01-16-2010 02:56 AM

And you'll notice that the Native Leader isn't identified as the one named Frayda Evryting.

RayOni 02-13-2010 10:35 AM

I did not know that exists Oddworld Wiki.
Thanks for the reference.
