i was thinking that maybe we could cut down on some of the templates deemed redundant, maybe even reducing the amount of Wiki portals (seeing as though we have the navigation boxes). Any suggestions or recommendations?

I decided to create a Alone in the Dark Wiki in french, seeing as though I believe that the various comics were written in the French language (forgive me if I'm wrong). It is important to note that i scarecly know French (like picking up the basic words from the Madeline series when i was young, lol) and unfortunately i have used Bing to translate some of the articles onto that site. Anyone who has knowledge of the French language is more than welcome to contribute to and even become the leader of the French Alone in the Dark Wiki.

Forgot to link: http://fr.aloneinthedark.wikia.com/wiki/Wikia_Alone_in_the_Dark

At the bottom of the main page is a french flag icon which will take you to it.

I have two announcements: One is that I am going to leave the achievement badge system (from names to images) i want to leave it to someone else. Its's a bit too comlicateed for me. The Second is that the Navigation templates have been made (not 100% completed, but still adequate). The task for everyone is to insert the Navbox of the appropriate game to its suited article

Also: each of the Navboxes has an inbuilt link that enables you to edit the Navigation template, so you can add and modify the stuff inside it. Just insert :

{{AitD2Nav}} {{AitD3Nav}}

Volunteers are more than welcome

it is a fine way to achieve badges and rank up in terms of said achievements =D

I think it would be best to link our wiki with those in different languages, so far there is an Italian, Portuguese and Espaniol of the Alone in the Dark Wiki currently. What needs to be done is to map each of our articles with the other languages counterparts (or at least as best as you can). The other language Wikis can be found on the main page at the bottom.

To link the article with its counterparts look at the bottom of main page. For an example of linking each page to its other language counterpart, Here is an example: Look at Edward Carnby article. When in edit mode, this should be at the bottom pof the page

[[es:Edward Carnby]] [[it:Edward Carnby]] [[pt:Edward Carnby]]

Just look for the equivelent articles (you can just simply google translate to help or something like that and insert it after the colon ':'.)

Another good thing about it is that it gives everyone an opportunity to share and collate information, which would have been limited if we aal worked on the Wikia separately.

I was wondering, what sort of badges should i create for the Wiki Users, e.g. badges for stuff such as items, locations, or do i do a group of badges for each game? What is your opinion on the matter

Like in the Portuguese language version of the Alone in the Dark Wiki, they seemed to have created a seperate article for the movie iteration (even though they are separate). A good point would be that it would reduce the amount of words on the article Sclera1 (talk)
