Mission Making - Getting Started – ArmA: Armed Assault Talk

This article serves no purpose as Armed Assault isn't even released yet not to mention the article is not complete and full of errors. I'm removing it from the Armed Assault category, you can continue to work on it in your sandbox. I've noticed that with many of your articles, your english isn't the greatest, maybe you can have someone for a proof read your articles before they are listed in the main categories, I'd be happy to just leave me a talk.hoz 01:09, 6 August 2006 (CEST)

Perhaps it's only my feeling - you confuse standard content management system and wiki. In wiki people only edit pages, with help of content management system they publish articles. It means if you find inconvenient article there, isn't good idea to give it to author to rewriting. Wiki is about improving; with lot of small improvements from lot of people can this article be great. That's what I newer can reach myself.

I know there aren't many people, but if we don't start practise wiki principes, who start? --Djura 13:31, 7 August 2006 (CEST)

The problem with your article is that its very incomplete, very in accurate and about a topic (ARMA) where the game isn't even released yet. I agree the wiki is about improving upon topics and articles, but an article being incomplete as this one shouldn't be categorized until its atleast readable and understandable. I don't want to scare away contributors either you present some interesting ideas, but lets make an article that is fit to digest before it ends up in the main stream categories. hoz 15:52, 7 August 2006 (CEST)

While in theory a Wiki should be self-correcting, that only works when you're dealing with a well established Wiki, with a large and active user-base (and even then you will need moderators!).

In our case this Wiki's "identity" is still being defined. Any new visitors will see what is written here as a sort-of guideline as to what is wanted and appropriate. Therefore we have to put fairly high quality standards on these initial articles, so that new members will get a good, as well as right, impression as to what this Wiki is about, and what kind of articles we are looking for.

Once the Wiki is well established - with thousands or articles and thousands of users - we don't have to worry as much about those issues anymore. The existing articles will give any submitter a good example, and there will also be enough "editors" out there, to use the existing work as guidelines to correct any articles that are lacking.

Until then though, we have to be a bit more pro-active when it comes to article editing. --Kronzky 19:38, 7 August 2006 (CEST)
