=== Wiki ===
* hendrik: I think it would be cool if we had a wiki page for each "region". Which says something about the history, what the region is about.
* it should say something about the region, the background story, what makes it special, its history, etc.
* hendrik: For example Ados is a port-city.
* many NPCs in world give useful background information about the regions they are in. It would be very useful to have that on the Wiki (without spoiling the quests)
* hendrik: It suffers from not having enough food. ▼* examples
* yoriy: hendrik, i guess Zynn Ivuhos have explanations for that wiki pages... :-)
▲** hendrik:Ados is a port-city. It suffers from not having enough food.
* hendrik: It would be cool to have this information, which you can learn by talking to NPCs and solving quests, at one central place.
** Semos consists of an old village and a small city. It is a rural area.
* Oslsachem: yes, the game needs more background story
* a good starting point is [[StendhalAtlas]], which already [[StendhalAtlas#Places|lists some regions]].
* superkym: There is some of that information here: http://stendhal.game-host.org/wiki/index.php/StendhalAtlas#Places
* such collected background stories will make it easier to write new quests that fit into the theme.
* superkym: did you mean you would like that put into a wiki page for each place?
* suggested page content
* Oslsachem: which can serve as a starting point for developing quests related with the plot
** a small image of the map
* hendrik: http://stendhal.game-host.org/wiki/index.php/StendhalAtlas#Places is a good starting point. But it needs quite a big of work. Perhaps even one article per city?
** background story about the whole region
* superkym: there was a bit of an example started for semos village http://stendhal.game-host.org/wiki/index.php/Semos_Village
** points of interests
* superkym: but like the manual that page has an external image which needs to be uploaded to the wiki. and of course it needs more work
** out-of-character information for players
* hendrik: For me it is difficult to add new NPCs or quests because I know too little about the history. I may easily add some inconsistancies.
** photos (screenshots)
* hendrik: We don't need something like that for every zone. But it would be really cool to have something like that for every region.
** see [[Semos]] for a first example
* superkym: Why not the major regions as in that atlas link
* blackfinix: itand shouldn'tyoriy be too dificultvolunteered
* more help welcomed
* hendrik: But those who actually play Stendhal can write it easily.
* blackfinix: I probably could do it
* blackfinix: Im looking at the one for semos now
* superkym: the great thing about the wiki is that it is something anyone can edit, and history is always kept, so you don't need to feel afraid of it
* blackfinix: I'll do it if no one else wants to
* hendrik: The one about Semos Village is very outdated. It was written at time before Hayunn was moved there.
* yoriy: i can i think - i playing often enough
* superkym: what should the page titles be
* blackfinix: ok yoriy
* superkym: ok, just Semos , Ados etc then
* tigertoes: so dont open file to edit, let it sit for long time before committing
* blackfinix: And semos dungeons would be just one?
* superkym: and images can be uploaded to the wiki linke the small image of one zone which you can see roughly where to get from that semos village example, or you can cut out a bigger image from the atlan of you want a bigger area
* superkym: I think I would suggest that the Semos area page has details of the city, the village, the dungeons and maybe the plains around it
* kezman: upload and download? also?
