    EoFF now has a community Wiki!

    Think of it as an EoFF encyclopedia for the members, by the members. Right now, pretty much anyone can edit any page, so dive right in and do what you can . This is what the EoFF Minibiography thing was about. Please don't make new groups or add to the contents page just yet, though. I'm looking for more member profiles, more detail on various groups and all that kind of thing.

    For those who don't know what a Wiki is, here's the definition from urbandictionary.com...

    A collaborative Web site comprised of the perpetual collective work of many authors. Similar to a blog in structure and logic, a wiki allows anyone to edit, delete or modify content that has been placed on the Web site using a browser interface, including the work of previous authors. In contrast, a blog, typically authored by an individual, does not allow visitors to change the original posted material, only add comments to the original content. The term wiki refers to either the Web site or the software used to create the site. The first wiki was created by Ward Cunnigham in 1995.
    I'd first like to note that while this is a project run outside of Staff - in other words, it's not moderated by them or anything - I still don't want people to outright abuse the place because then I might need to start setting up accounts or something so that people need passwords to edit pages. Don't let it get to that kind of state, though.

    Now, if you know how to use a Wiki, good. If not, feel free to get used to it using the Sandbox page linked to in the left hand side of the Wiki. Also, there are certain text formatting rules. The ones you should be quickest to note are...

    If you're editing something and make a mistake, don't worry - you can revert to older versions of each page using the Page History function.

    I'm the only real leader of this project however Samuraid is providing the ever-invaluable technical support.

    This subliminal message could be meant for YOU. But it's probably not. Move along ;D

    Haha, I love how you edited BAoTW to point to W-Boats just moments after I had edited W-Boats to have a redirect to BAoTW. W-Boats is the superior name, though.

    I still don't have any idea what W-Boat(s) even means! And I asked Psy...and he didn't! (or wouldn't tell me).

    grrr...

    I don't like saying Bee-Ay-Oh-Tee-Double-Yoo, so I say Double-Yoo-Boats. It's a lot easier, I assure you, and it sounds a hell of a lot better. Meaning? Uh... same thing I guess... I generally don't think about meanings when naming things.

    Is W-boats an anagram of BAoTW? But there's an 's' in W-boats.

    A W-Boat (without the s, as you see) is a single member of the W-Boats. A Bored Atheist of The World, if you will.

    Oh, yeah, if anyone needs a page renamed for any reason, let me know. As far as I know, you can only rename / delete pages via FTP.
