    Default The org on Wikipedia?

    I can't find an entry about the org in Wikipedia. Maybe someone should start one? I don't know that much about the org, so maybe one of the experienced members who has the time?

    There is a link at the bottom of the Total War games entry:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_W...game_series%29

    Some time ago (maybe 2 years back), there was a Gah! entry, but it got edited off. Someone has an agenda, apparently.

    It used to be on there, but somebody removed it - although it was a little bit bias - that's probably why it was de-linked by the people of the great Wikipedia.

    Linky to the page with the TWC link.

    If anyone ever does bother to make a wiki entry on the .org, all it needs is this:

    .Org > TWC

    May I note out that an article such as that would be bias and would not be allowed on Wikipedia. The bias has to be in favour of neither party.

    Although we may not have an article on the real Wikipedia, we have a very nice article on the TWC Wikipedia. It's quite basic, but that can easily be fixed with a little bit of expansion and modification.

    Nice understatement, Omanes.

    "quite basic".

    On the subject of bias, if we hint at it, or write it very small, would it go?

    Actually, when I look at the page on TWcenter, the Org's page really needs to be updated. Look at Omane's link to see the Org's description, and see the difference here.

    We've had a number of these threads, and all-in-all it seems nobody can be bothered to update the front page (). Maybe a contest would be the best way to stimulate enthusiasm.

    Re: TWC Wiki page about the Org, I'm helping work on the TWC Wiki (mainly for modding information), I had already asked moderators here for someone to either help improve the Guild page or provide me with more information so I could do it.

    I think someone tweaked the grammar but it hasn't had any more information added yet. If anyone else wants to help fix it they can, though obviously bias in either TWC>ORG or ORG>TWC form will get edited.

    I can probably add some bits on the various forums here eventually (though I don't normally escape from RTW modding section so my knowledge could be a bit limited). I don't know any more about the history here though, so could do with someone else adding to that or pointing me in right direction.
