That's what we're trying to do Very Happy You are invited to make the wiki too if you want, but you'll have to actually see Marble Hornets for that.

Except new users can't edit the wiki without admin permissions, and all of the admins of the wiki are pretty much dead.

So the wiki is permanently dead and there's nothing we can do about it unless one of the wiki's admins comes back, which probably won't happen.

 		@ Base: I would, I'm a ADMIN at two different wiki's actually. I wouldn't mind a third.

Also,

*Been watching since Entry 18*

@ Secret: Yeahhh, That's why this Wiki layout sucks. I can't even do anything.. bah.

Any votes for starting, y'know, new? Maybe get some real fresh users, etc.

 		This wiki is so out of shape it could use a total redo, so why not? The only problem is that many other sites link to this wiki.

Could someone who has editing powers, maybe put a link to the New, awesome wiki on the front page? maybe saying "MOVED - SEE NEW WIKI *Link*"?

Either way, I'm all for making a new one. Would give everyone something to do during seasons break. Very Happy

Yay! An excuse for doing lots and lots of marathons!

I'll participate if you need the hand. The best part is that we can use the transcriptions for video to text of the old wiki, so that's the longest step already done. Besides, the old wiki has some old theories proved wrong, I think.

P.S.: InHABITed, I have no fricken clue why I said that about having to watch MH, really. I'm totaly shocked and I don't remeber writing it niether, so I have no clue what I intended to say.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
HABIT made me do it?

Quote:
Wikia is a for-profit company, and they put money first. This means that they regularly alter the wiki to make more money on adverts. Over the years, they have added more and more adverts, including putting them inside the content area.
One big change was the introduction of a new skin (Oasis) which reduced the size of the content area, was very difficult to use, loaded slower, and added a lot of unwanted features. The new rules at Wikia forbid us from altering the design of the wiki in any way except its colour. Despite thousands of users openly expressing their dissatisfaction with this skin, Wikia ignored them and are making it mandatory, removing the option to use the old design.
It was this disrespect to the community, putting money above everything else, and forgetting why we were there, that made Grand Theft Wiki decide to leave Wikia.
Quote:
Wikia have actually blocked Grand Theft Wiki's administrators from the site because of this. This proves they don't care about the community or the content, they just want to make money.

Many popular community wikis such as GTA, Doom, even some furry wiki (lol), have all moved from Wikia.

Also, the idea of Wikia making ad money off MH makes me twitchy.

 		'Kay, you convinced me Very Happy

That leaves us with nothing but to reanimate the old wiki? Or is there other wiki-generators?

 		I really think this needs fixing. The wiki was invaluable in my run of Marble Hornets, but since no one can edit it we should really get on making a new one, especially since we still have a little time before season 3 starts.

 		Ideally, I'd prefer we get the guys behind the Wikidot wiki to come back and let people register/edit the one that's already here so we don't have to duplicate efforts.

If that's not going to happen, I can set up a MediaWiki on my hosting for it. However, I'd need at least five (preferably more) people willing to be active editors and actually maintain it.

 		I have no idea who the previous editors of the wikidot are and have no mediums to contact them.

But if you do make your MediaWiki, you have one active editor here. Count me in.

EDIT: I have realized something. We are at the last first episode of a season of Marble Hornets that will ever be. How cool it would be for it to finish with a great wiki? Please people, let's make this, at least because Marble Hornets deserves it. Zarggg, if you could just do it, then do it, I think we'll be able to find four guys in all the uF's Marble Hornets posters.
