Construction wikipedia entry?

Krash

Perhaps we should put one together sometime.
We'd need a couple screenshots and some info on the mod written out. Maybe some old stories.

Isn't there an anti-autobiographical rule on Wikipedia?

Krash

I don't believe so. I was reading through a few of their rules and guidelines the other night and it looks like we should be fine as long as it's written in a neutral point of view, is cited and so fourth.
Even if there were, we'd be writing about the original mod we're just fans of and consequently modded ourselves.

Don't forget to mention my legendary ever-improving indestructable bunkers :O !

In addition to the wikipedia article, an entire construction wiki could be quite helpful.
With all of the different mods, and all the different ways to do things, a universal reference might help new players get into construction.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Autobiography for the reasons they discourage such things.

Krash

Yeah, we get the point and see that it exists. The few things that it does mention as a must are things in the basic rules and that would fall under what I already mentioned earlier. A neutral point of view and verifiable information.

If you search around through the many games and mods on the site, you'll be hard-pressed to find many that weren't written by the fans or community dedicated to it. We're just creating an long-overdue article to provide some information on a mod that has been out well over 5 years.

I did hear construct mention something about tidal waves during his birth tho.. shrug.
