Can only certain people edit the wiki? I'd understand why, but I'd like to contribute something. :T

I think you have to prove you can wank first. These people really know their Eva

we were working on our site consitution before we signed up more people. Ultimately anyone will be able to join who asks, you'll get a PM. Hang on :)

How much more do we have to wait, approximately?

Reichu told me she was working on stuff

The Imperialist · Postby **The Imperialist** » Tue Jan 08, 2008 5:03 pm

I would take that as "Please wait patiently- it will pay off"

You could always find a topic that deserves a wiki entry that Reichu doesn't feel like messing with and she'll try to draft you for it. Got me to shut up real quick.

I want to become an official translator, plus do a lot of editing.

I guess I'd need to grasp what level of detail should be used for the wiki. I just wanted to mention in the EoE section how the transformer falling into the water at the very beginning intentionally resembles the splash of Kaworu's head falling into the LCL, showing more or less exactly what's on Shinji's mind, but chances are high that everyone knows this already and it's not seen as a necessary detail.

long sentence is long.

I would also like to put in my thing about Wagner, as a minor article, but not sure if I will get permission.

Kaysow · Postby **Kaysow** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 10:01 am

Yeah, that one sparks some immediate deja vu. The things that are yet to be discussed are usually really farfetched and/or out there.

Thanks so much.
I wuldn't say all the things are too 'farfetched' to be in the wiki, not just my theories. Anyway, we should have as many theories as possible in the wiki. That way, we may know all the opinions (as much as possible), and gives it much more variety of cross-referencing.

There are good theories and there are bad ones. The bad ones don't belong in the wiki.

The Imperialist · Postby **The Imperialist** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 12:57 pm

Which ones are considered bad? And also, we can still mention them in the wiki. We just have to say, this is considered BAD.

TV tropes.org has a "Wild Mass Guessing" page where all the "Epliptic Trees" are planted so that people can read about them. I think as long as it is clearly stated, multiple multiple times, a "Wacky Eva Theroies" page wouldn't be out of the question, perhaps merging it with "Radioactive Waste".

This was something that we wanted to avoid from the beginning. The "Radioactive Waste" is a place where once sound theories were later proven wrong. We don't want random unbacked theories to flood the wiki, as I'm sure everyone here can make one up and give it little to no backing, but that doesn't mean it belongs in the wiki.

The Wagner stuff for instance, has no backing whatsoever. It doesn't belong in the wiki at all.

The Imperialist · Postby **The Imperialist** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 2:41 pm

Wait, wait. What do you mean no backing whatsoever? At the least the Nietzsche has some backing, and I do admit, Wagner one has little backing, it just happens that I forgot to add another thing. The way that the whole thing went through, as it could be divided into more or less three 'Acts'. I won't go too further in this thread, but if it can get on the wiki, what should be there?

What he said, Imp. The only backing it has is in your mind.

And contrary to what you may believe, there is a spoon.

The Imperialist · Postby **The Imperialist** » Wed Jan 09, 2008 3:14 pm

What? Spoon? That doesn't make sense. I would like the reason why he thinks that there is no backing.
