AnandTech Forums Wiki is BACK!

[ViviTheMage]

Why make the logo boring? It needs to be that pic of the guy with his beard photoshopped on everything.

or just a santa hat.

 

[ViviTheMage]

We could also use a favicon, who doesn't like a good favicon?

 

[amdhunter]

Aww. I missed my old wiki page. There were so many butthurt people there editing my page. (Cept for Stumps, I admittedly really pissed him off unnecessarily.)

 

[ViviTheMage]

If someone has an SQL dump from the old wiki, I can load it in.

 

[MartyMcFly3]

Thanks for adding the Secret Santa to Current Events!

Mugs has it if I'm not mistaken.

 

[ViviTheMage]

Mugs has it if I'm not mistaken.

I think I can merge them, assuming it was from another media wiki site.

If he reads this, PM me, or email me the old SQL dump!

Uhhhh, no. Same general rules as the forums apply.

But feel free to create a user page for yourself, or about anything on the forums of interest, just keep it clean and don't flame/troll.

can someone create a user page for myself? I feel it is dishonest if we create our own user pages.

As such, I volunteer to create user pages for CasioTech and neckbeardHal, and Schneiderguy.

Feel free to make a new one, that one is temporary and was made in less than a minute.

It needs to be that pic of the guy with his beard photoshopped on everything.

You mean TheSiege's thread?

Do your worst

 

[zinfamous]

Do your worst

Your page is currently a pack of lies. It definitely needs some editing.

Maybe when I'm bored tonight.

 

[gorcorps]

Question: What do all the ''' marks in the code do? I put one in for olds in a similar format as the others, but I still don't know what the ''' did.

 

[Ichinisan]

Lemme guess. This, was your doing:
"HAL9000 - a.k.a neckarb/neckbeard. ATOT's biggest gun enthusiast and firearms expert. Notable for being Welsh."

No.

You can tell who did it in the history.

 

[zinfamous]

Do your worst

Fixed.


Hey--who said that I only like libruls?



Oh, I see. it was the dude that wants to rodger his mom.

 

[herm0016]

things the old one had:
list of members and their area of expertise
thread of the year nominations
owange of the year nominations
list of threads that newbs should read

I remember it had a rather extensive bio of Dave McOwen. Like, really detailed and extensive. It really helped me understand...things.

When I was "running" the Wiki he bitched about that, I think he threatened to sue me or something so I deleted that page. I kept a copy of it though, I'll have to dig it up. Truth is a defense to libel, and Dave is too poor to afford a lawyer anyway.

The only time the wiki ever got much attention was when someone kept linking to that picture of Lola showing off her breast implants. I wanted nothing to do with all that crap.

I hope there are enough people interested in keeping up with it, it's a good way to keep track of the "history" of AT. Everyone has stuff they've kept track of over the years, might as well put it all in one place.

The biggest annoyance I had with the wiki was spambots. I'd recommend adding CAPTCHA, or using a third-party service like wikia even.

People better look out when I can afford a lawyer.

Since you insist on paying $7 for a gallon of milk and $5 for a gallon of gas I don't think we need to worry.

I'm glad that this is returning.
