Sep 05, 2004 5:35:14 There is a new Mystara Wiki on the web, with several useful features. Everyone can contribute, and it looks quite promising:

Sep 07, 2004 8:40:00 Is no-one going to answer Spellweaver's question? - he just got in first as I can't work out what a 'Wiki' is either...

Its a program or web page feature that allows people to make a website together, without neccesarily having to know anything about web design. At least, thats what I understand it to be. I have no experience with Wikis and haven't really had time to explore this one. If you are curious about how it works, I suggest checking it out through the link in the original post. As with most computer stuff, I suspect one can find out alot by just fiddling around with it.

Sep 25, 2004 18:08:12 What happened to the Mystara Wiki - I tried to explore in the past few days but have not been able to. Is it gone? (I was just going to start trying to figure out how the thing worked too!).

Uhm, the address belongs to a service that allow people to use their PC as a web server by assigning a permanent name/address (your standard connection uses a temporary address assigned by the provider).
This is to say that it may simply be that the Mystara Wiki is only available when the owner's PC is on and online.

As to what a wiki is, it is a basically a website that allows the user to modify the contents without explicit use of html syntax.
As a technology, it has found application in the development of encyclopedia-type document, where different authors may insert and revise articles.

This link (to a wiki page) explains it better:

If this is the case, I've got some spare web space that I'd be willing to offer for a persistent home.

I removed the link to the Wiki from the front page because the page wasn't working when I made the update and I haven't been able to get to it since. The link is still in the links section of the Vaults. Keene was the person who set up the Wiki, I haven't tried to get in contact with him yet. His email is [email]akhammon@yahoo.com[/email]

Did anyone contact Keene?
I see the wiki is still gone. Did he give it up on account of little response?
