Talk:Lore

Article Archiving

Just to get us started in here, I wanted to ask if it would be in our best interest to archive the current backstory articles on the PS2 newsfeed that I used in compiling this page. I'd be happy to do some copy-pasting of those articles with the appropriate wikifying, but wonder where they would best fit on the wiki if we did decide to add them. Should they have articles of their own under the lore category, or is there a better way to manage them (if at all)? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nimbal.

First off, great work so far, I haven't read any of it as I'm not really into Lore, but it's obvious you've put a lot of effort into it. If you already used those backstory articles on the Lore page, I don't think there's any need to have them on individual pages as well. If you haven't used them (all) here, than it might be worth looking into it further. MasterCalaelen 10:36, 4 July 2012 (CDT)

Thanks Cal, it did take a long time but I enjoy this sort of thing. If you ever do sit down and read it all, I'd love to hear what you think. I used those backstory pieces to basically guide the detailed overview I wrote, but many of them have details I couldn't include and some of them I didn't use at all (fluff pieces). All decent reads for junkies though. --Nimbal 10:48, 4 July 2012 (CDT)

Great work! I think an archive of source material would be a good idea especially for easier reference for others to help expand as well as not knowing how durable the PS2.com archive will be. They could go as subpages Lore/Archive/article1, Lore/Archive/article2, with Lore/Archive being an index. At the very least I was thinking of creating an index that links to all the source material. --GRYPHON^tc 14:38, 4 July 2012 (CDT)

Cal and I have been talking about a good direction for an Archive. We didn't realize sub-directories were possible on the wiki (the idea did come up) so we started putting this together. Once you guys pick what you think is best I'll start putting them out there so we have our own copies. Let me know! --Nimbal 15:11, 4 July 2012 (CDT)

Looks good. I think a subpage of /Archive per article would be better, would make it a little more manageable and linkable as reference. You could still import them into one large page as you have designed if you want. --GRYPHON^tc 15:48, 4 July 2012 (CDT)

Year of 2nd opening

If it's every 98.2 years that the wormhole opens and the first opening was in 2444, and the 3rd in 2640, then shouldn't the second opening be in 2542, not 2582 ?

Ah indeed the timeline says 2542, I'll go edit the earlier erroneous 2582.
