where is the language tab?

So that we can start other language pages....
Most likely we need to put some thought into those features, It would include recruiting native speakers of those languages that are also fluent in English and have experience maintaining wikis.
So something on the radar but not an immediate feature of the site.

I use a central wiki for some administration purposes. It is possible it'll be expanded upon in the future to cover that type of stuff, but no promises, sorry.


I certainly hope there won't be any thumbs up system. Seems really pointless when it doesn't actually affect sorting (like it does on reddit for example).
I'd be sad if signatures disappeared though. Custom avatars really isn't that big a deal in my opinion since there's such a huge set of game-relevant avatars offered.
Edit: What Castellon said, basically.

Thanks for the response, you and Castellon :)
I do think that likes on comments can be very relevant without sorting system. Maybe a great comment is posted but nobody feels the need to answer it, so it sticks there into oblivion. Not with thumbs up. But this I think will be discussed in the appropriate moment.

Even if that central wiki is very small I think it can help to cover the basics of many small games like Sengoku, EURome, the first EUs and HoIs, the AGEOD games, and a long etc. that may still have a small community. The concept of central hub per se usually gives many benefits in any form of organization.

We don’t intend to alter anything on the wikis with any other purpose than adding interaction between our different community channels and functionality/content to benefit the user.
Dear Paradox team. I really doubt if anyone thinks otherwise. You're not EA :)

Some web map viewer could be searched for/adapted perhaps? Or simply embed MichaelM's scenario editor in the page? It's written in java, after all.
That would be intriguing, but not very practical, I'm afraid. SVG would be much better for showing a clickable and searchable map. But allowing the dates and mapmodes to be changed would be ....actually a very interesting technical problem, now that I think about it.

I remember working with Meneth to relaunch the Victoria 2 Wiki. He is the best at managing wikisites. I'm looking forward contributing on the merged Wikis. That's a great move on Paradox's part.

Since I have experience at managing wikis (I am an admin on the Vicky 2 wiki), I could be of much help if Paradox ever set up a French language version of the Paradox Wikis. ;)

Cities in Motion and Cities in Motion 2 wikis are dead. Was hosted in Wikispaces and they do not host non-education wikis anymore.

Can we get a space in Paradox?

Is there any policy for images ? In the wiki we also host maps and saved games. No files is bigger than 10 Mb and then entire wiki is not big, since Wikispaces it self had strong limitations on that.

Why is this the limitation? Not that it is problematic in any way, just to know why you have chosen this limit.

A few pages have now been moved from the individual wikis to a Central Wiki.

Namely, the copyright policies of the wikis, and the "About" page of the network.
General style guidelines are also available, but the individualized ones per wiki will probably remain.

My user page on the individual wikis is now transcluded from the Central Wiki, meaning that changes to that page will affect my user page on every wiki.
If there's any user who edits multiple wikis, I can help them set this up for their user page so that they'll no longer have to duplicate information.

Suggestions for other pages that would be useful to have on the Central Wiki are appreciated. Suggestions for other pages that should be moved to the Central Wiki are also appreciated.

Perhaps pages in general about PDS games that do not yet have a wiki of their own or pages on Paradox as a company.
