Update from the Wiki

“Where the hell have you been??”

Short answer; work. There has been a mad push at work to produce as much timber (lumber, for you yanks) as possible before winter sets in which means I have had to work nearly 60 hour weeks. Don’t worry though, as of Monday 17th I will be starting a new job and back to full wiki-ing capacity.

I’d like to thank the wiki staff for keeping the ship afloat while I have been somewhat out of the loop, especially Ben and Tron. You two rock, hard-core.

So what has been happening on the wiki? Honestly, not much. My staff and I will be working with the Voice soon in order sift through all articles in an effort to increase the DB’s over all level of realism within the Star Wars universe.

There is one thing I would like to mention (as it has been cropping up as an issue more and more). The Wiki has trouble with images that are over 1,000 pixels in either height or width which results in the wiki either showing an error when you try to view the image or a simple blank page. If you are uploading an image, please make sure it is under this 1,000 pixel limit, however if you forget just ask a Wiki Staffer and they should be able to delete the old image and upload a smaller copy of it for you.

I agree that massive "sized" images can be a pain for users and wiki staff just because of their mere "pixel size". There are also programs available both free (freeware) or for purchase on the web that can help decrease the "file size" without compromising the physical size.. Your own image program may have something, though not the best conversion.

When I upload my images, I make sure the file size and the physical size are the best I make it. Even those of you out there who like to use photos from the web, might be generous to convert "said" images to something less "strenuous" on the wiki. :P

But I understand how most of the Brotherhood like BIG sizes and the quality to boot.
