JC the Builder: You seem to be to have quite an extensive UO knowledge/history and drive to document the game. Please reconsider contributing your knowledge at UOStuff.com. I was honest about the timing of UOStuff.com updating and expanding. We (the UO Community) would be honored to have your contributions. -Quaz'r
Full Conversation : UOGuide vs UOStuff
talk
and you don't even have a user page yet? :P
So, how long is this wiki in progress so far.
- what are your goals,
- what kind of server,
- how much wiki editing knowledge do you consider yourself capable of,
- are you planning any google ads to keep it running,
- and how many admins does the site have so far. ?
UOStuff doesn't see much activity in edits lately, i can agree on that... Though wouldn't it make sense to merge the efforts of the 2 projects somehow?
i must warn you i'm a chaotic editor / admin, but can get some interesting stuff done ;)
UO is not currently my main focus [1], though i can help in some areas.

- I have been focusing more on site content then anything else, that is the most important thing right now.
- My goal is to build an enclopedia for UO. At present time, the focus has been to keep up with current publishes. Then to work backwards from there to fill out the site.
- UOGuide is currently hosted on a shared server, but will upgrade to dedicated when needed. I already understand a lot about hosting after managing the HOT Guild Website and forum for a couple years now. Right now, the site is up all the time and the speed is adaquate.
- I have learned a lot about Wiki editing, and am constantly reviewing the help pages on Wikipedia when I want to know more about something. Actually I just refreshed myself on the indentation syntax so I could reply to your comment in the proper way.
- The plan is to run this site ad free. The hosting is already pre-paid until next June or July. If the costs increase, donations or other means will be looked into for funding.
- Currently, I am the only administrator. The plan is make the most active contributors administrators of the site.

sig
You need to make yourself a proper sig ;) check my userpage for a how-to.
- btw, as you can see, i'll start off with the Directory, and relevant categories and templates, it'll give you a base to expand upon.
- The blue banner on the left, appears to be 2 lines of text too small currently - BBR talk / cont 01:51, 16 November 2006 (PST)
MD
btw, imo Markeedragon should be removed from the fansites..
i've been boycotting them myself for a long time now, as they are providing illegal third party software, and botting software for World of Warcraft, they probably won't care much about their legal activities in UO. - BBR talk / cont 02:20, 16 November 2006 (PST)
- I want to keep the official fansite links the same as on the official fansite page on UO.com. You and I might not like it, but until his site is removed (if ever) it has to stay. I want UOGuide to be as objective as possible. -- JC the Builder 08:32, 16 November 2006 (PST)
