Foo Timed Out Joined: 02 Aug 2000 Posts: 38006	Posted: 10-22-2022 08:01 PM                    Hello again. There didn't seem to be a wiki focused on Quake III information. So now there is. It is here: https://q3.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page I've been chucking bits of info into this for a while now. Maybe it's got something useful to you. Perhaps you have some info to contribute? It's a wiki, go for it. I'm backing it up semi-regularly and possibly in future it might also move underneath the quake3world domain.

Miraheze seems to be focused more generally than Fandom (though they do seem to be a competitor). Many gamepedia wikis are hosted on Fandom, including Minecraft (https://minecraft.fandom.com/). I guess the reason may be ads, because Fandom is a commercial project powered by ads. They don't specify much (and I have AdBlock enabled, so I don't see any ads), so I don't think that they're running a donation driven project, which is my educated guess based on the ".com" TLD that's mostly used by commercial subjects (whereas Miraheze sports a ".org" TLD, which is generally used for non-profit organizations). I don't personally think that ads would be a major issue for a fandom wiki though. Most readers have ads blocked anyway. _________________ [ Websites | Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | Instagram ] “When you feel the worst, turn to the sun and all the shadows will fall behind you.” - John Lennon

I've corrected the link to the Zerowing page, provided link to Wayback Machine snapshot from March 2005. _________________ [ Websites | Facebook | Twitter | YouTube | Instagram ] “When you feel the worst, turn to the sun and all the shadows will fall behind you.” - John Lennon
