I think that if this were a fantasy forum, you'd be a thread necromancer :rofl:

Nah, I just don't think there's much need to start new threads when there are old threads that are fairly relevant to what I want to say

I think VickyWiki is quite useful if you aren´t sure about some details in Victoria and want to check those details. Keep up good work Rafiki!
P.S. I think your list of leaders´traits doesn´t include brilliant. That´s strange because R.E.Lee has that trait.

You're right. It's not included in the list that is part of the manual. However, it is included in the automatically generated version available at the old Camp Victoria-site, which will be brought into VickyWiki sometime soon.Finnish Dragon said:

RafikiNice to have this in one place. It would take weeks to filter this info from the enormous amount in the forums.
I find it slightly confusing that each and every country have their own entry in the main menu - making it spill over on two pages. Couldn't you gather this under a single heading e.g. Country-specific information

I'm not sure I understand what you mean? Are you thinking of the "assorted guides"-page and would like to see the countries collected in one page/article?
The aim here is to collect enough information/strategy for each nation in due time, so that having a page for each nation will be necessary; we're not there yet, unfortunately.
I'd also like to find a way to "merge" pages, so that it is possible to have several articles collected into one page. This would e.g. be useful for printing the manual. Again, unfortunately, we haven't figured out if there is a way to do that yet.

But what do people think of it? What do you like? What don't you like?
This isn't a fishing trip for "You guys rock!"-comments (allthough they are appreciated
It rocks
Seriously. In terms of newbie help Victoria is currently the best organized of all Paradox games (but it also needs it the most). I'm just picking Victoria up again after leaving it on the shelf for a couple of months and while playing I regular alt-tab out of the game to search for some information on the Vickywiki.

Something you can do is collect links of forum threads relating to different strategies for countries. Something Flame of Udun did for EU2 here There is never one perfect strategy for a country, reading through the thoughts of other peoples strategies always gives me good inspirations for strategies.
That's a good idea Then perhaps in due time, when people get the inspiration, the essence of the assorted threads can be pulled over into the Wiki?
I don't know if I'll be able to look into it anytime soon (my todo-list for the Wiki is already quite long, and it got tripled in size earlier today), but perhaps someone else can?

Well, thanks for digging that up for me, Rafiki. You and Derkrenown should have a chat sometime...rafiki said:You're right. It's not included in the list that is part of the manual.

And anyway, I see that Camp Victoria is actually no more--that's you're going to be focusing on the wiki now?
Rafiki, you Military Attitude Mod is quite bloody good! No longer will my army strengths and weaknesses be determined by a random event beyond our mortal control. Cheers!
We aim to please, you knowMemnon said:
Well, it's still there, but as things get transferred to the Wiki, it will dwindle away and eventually be closed/removed. No point in having it when the Wiki can do everything it does and more. And I haven't done any work on the Camp since we started putting the Wiki together
Kurek: thanks! So you've tested it and it works? Good to hear; you'll probably like the Corporate Structure Mod, too then

Derkrenown? I suppose I should be grateful you didn't misspell it Dorkrenown though...
But that has changed!rafiki said:

Come one! Come all!
Based on the experiences so far with HOI2Wiki and allowing anyone who wants to edit, edit, I've now reconfigured VickyWiki so that you no longer need an admin to set up an account for you; you can register yourself if you like.
So feel free to make any contributions you feel like doing. All I ask, is that you take a glance at the rules/guidelines before doing so.
As always, I'm more than happy to answer any and all questions you might have about the wiki.
