you know what? comparing the experience making a page with the wikicode vs the visual editor, i think i prefer the wikicode.

we also need a butt-ton of cover images. are they handy somewheres? or should we just make the pages and wait for our Fearless Leader to swoop in and staple them in place?

also also, i think i'm done for now. not a bad amount of stuff we have now for only a couple of days. i can't wait to see what it all looks like once everyone is on board.

I think there are nicely-sized images of every cover at the main site. That's where I pulled one of mine from, along with the synopses - now I just need to add some content to my wiki pages that'll actually set them apart from the ones on the main site. Maybe some trivia?

[Lord Anubis]

I like the trivia idea.

Actually, I was looking at pages and noticing in how many places we've all equated "synopisis" with "back-of-the-book sales pitch."  There's nothing wrong with that, I guess, if that's going to be the Permwiki standard...  I don't know, it just struck me as odd. 

[Dave Dunwoody]

My rationale for that was that I didn't want to post spoilers. I don't suppose it would be impossible, though, to do a more in-depth writeup without giving away anything major.

----Links to reviews?  That way the reader/prospective reader chooses to be spoilered or not ...

split the Anthologies page into the five individual book pages.

added Dave's author page (cribbed from his page over at the HWA Wiki) and fixed the rest of his author credits to David. (sorry about that, Double D.)

added pics to a bunch of antho's and made my author page. BLECCH.

[Dave Dunwoody]

You are a machine - nay, a wikinator! Thanks for doing that (and, of course, for making my HWA Wiki page to begin with).

[Thom Brannan]

no probs, Dave! Jacob did this admin thing, so i figured i might as well. Snell is next, whether he likes it or not! hah, i'm coasting on my earlier work.

[Thom Brannan]

updates. added some more unreleased stuff to the main page (that's you, Dave!) and split the main page some so the the Contents thing helps you jump around.

YOU GUYS, if you have something you want put up, send it to me if you're an inconsolable wikiphobe. except Pete. HAHAHAHA!!!!

[Lord Anubis]

Don't mock me because of my wikiphobia!  It just means I'm differently-abled!

[Thom Brannan]

but it doesn't mean you get special parking. no it does NOT.

[Thom Brannan]

HEY OH!

i just uploaded a bunch of book covers to the Wiki, so if you're making a page for your book, please check to see if your cover is already there, please.

[Thom Brannan]

YOU GUYYYYYYYYS,

thank you for putting so much stuff on the PP Wiki, it's rather cool that so many of you got involved.

would i be out of line to suggest that perhaps some characters from the books (especially the series books) deserver wiki pages of their own? i can certainly see one for Death (Adam, whichever) and the Supercast of Ex-Heroes, not to mention Sylvester Logan James.

come on. DO EET.

I was thinking of putting up a character profile on Harrison Peel from my spy versus the Mythos series.

one thing first . . . is that Robocop walking on the beach?

that sounds awesome! the other thing, not the Robocop thing. hah, if i ever find a home for "Land of Sunshine," i hope it's with Permuted . . . and then i will make a Jinx & Sally Reverend page. (they're in a story from Robots Beyond.)
