Re: FFR Wiki
Finished the Label Permissions and the Blanket Permissions as well as Label Permissions.
Will update the lists with noname's list when I get back from work. |

Re: FFR Wiki
I'm curious about how Jimerax isn't in the staff page with other admins but Tasselfoot is there.
Also on many occurances people are referred to by their first names, which isn't really practical in my book. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Whoa this exploded fast, tomorrow I'll spend all day re-reading all the content and make a .txt file with edits so the initial author can make the grammar edits. I feel like this way they learn more too.
And then I'll reword/reconstruct phrasing and paragraphs for some fun. |

Re: FFR Wiki
We really need to set up a plan and what's left to do.
Critical tasks - We NEED a list of pages to add (engines, history of the website, tournaments, etc.......) - Artists and songs to add (Noname219 - now at letter E) Important tasks - Template:Song page need some adjustments (Netjet! - will add some few other things) - Additional information on songs and musicians (Noname219 and Crazyjayde) - Logo ameliorations, transparency, "wiki" need a better font - Some staff members to be added - Setting up the homepage properly - Having a page to know exactly what to do when new content is added - List of musicians - List of songs Propositions - FFR Terminology is a big ass page, we could have a whole page for play styles, AAA, BC, pattern terminology (some examples in files) with a redirection - Having all permissions pages under the same one (links could be listed in artists page) - Maybe having a page with some general guidelines to know what/how to add stuff on the wiki, a FAQ or something Completed - None yet! This will go in the OP. If anybody wants to start something, they can go ahead. |

Re: FFR Wiki
Did a few important modifications to Template:Song and Template:Musician :
1. Header now has the same colour of the website 2. On Template:Musician only, legends are aligned to the top (less confusion on the artists' profiles) 3. On Template:Song, added "In-game title" in File Information to see how the name should be displayed in the game 4. If a song has two of more versions, the second infobox has to be entered manually (see an example here : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/Nothing%27s_Gonna_Stop_Me) 5. Minor bugs fixed * A note on "Original title" : applicable only if the name is different from the name displayed in the game (ie japanese names) Now that I have more time, I should be able to add the rest of the artists/songs during the next couple of weeks. :) |
Re: FFR Wiki
Made a new page : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_so...multiple_files
New template to use on v2 files : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Songv2 (check this page to see how it looks) + some ameliorations on infoboxes. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Need a bit of help here on List of songs.
I need to build the table quickly with an output for each song in the game, like this : Code:
|- EDIT : Also added a few more categories. When you use templates icon, pages are added automatically to those categories. |

Re: FFR Wiki
I figured I could help this wiki out, and I added a Tournaments article. It's still a work in progress and I plan on having the start date, number of rounds (if applicable) and victors of every tournament I can get my hands on. I also just threw some terms that were being tossed around recently, feel free to add/edit as you see fit.... RAWR!
-RARAWR Edit: I pretty much complete the 2nd official tournament (just need to add the 8 songs per round) Also the separate page idea seems to be working well and I'm going to go back and add on to the first tourny. Tell me what you think of the 2nd Tournaments page (follow the links on the main Tourny post). |
Re: FFR Wiki
Good stuff! I completely forgot about this so I'll try to get back to editing and adding stuff when I can. :)

Re: FFR Wiki
Hmm, thought I remembered posting in a topic about this before. Anyway, if you guys need any help with wikicode, making the wiki cooperate and stuff, or any code, I can help.

Re: FFR Wiki
I'm debating on either placing the songs used for a tournament on its respective article, or making one article dedicated to all the songs used for official tournaments (tie breakers included) and just having the link to said article on each tournament page. Thoughts?....RAWR

there's a japanese wiki for ffr? http://www9.atwiki.jp/ffrwiki/pages/1.html |
Re: FFR Wiki
I managed to miss your post Yoshl until today \o/ Looks like there's some infos on how to get tokens, that's all there is. There's 12 pages total.
Also, I will probably involve credits (willing to give out 800,000) at some point in the future (could be a weekly salary for people that helps the wiki, unsure how I will do that honestly). If anyone wants to help btw but doesn't want to format stuff or add pictures, they can just drop bare text in this thread or directly in the wiki. I've added nearly all the musicians in the last few days (yay), I'm adding some more informations atm + all the songs. Slowly taking shape. Still, a lot to do. :S |
Re: FFR Wiki
Did massive changes in the first post. List of pages is more complete and detailed. There are some missing things that could be added, but it looks good so far.
edit : Changed the homepage finally, will create some portal logos later |
Re: FFR Wiki
Hit a milestone today : 1000th article!
|
Re: FFR Wiki
100,000 credits mini-contest
We need 4 portal logos for the wiki : - FFR the Game - Music - Community - Rhythm Games - Any size will do fine (they can get resized at will), at least 300x300 pixels. - Any shape. - Any file format. (preferably png) - They should be be easy to recognize at smaller sizes (when reduced to icons about 20x20 pixels) - Try to keep an uniformity between them. They will be displayed on the homepage. Anybody can submit their entry. The winner will get decided by a poll on January 5th. Send your entries on this thread. |
Re: FFR Wiki
holy shit noname. I can't keep up with your dedication :s

Re: FFR Wiki
Thanks, trying my best not to turn crazy at the moment with all the stuff that needs to be added.
Btw, I made some super lazy ass temporary logos on the homepage to show and see exactly how they will appear. |

Keep up the awesome work that you've put into this. People may take this for granted now, but they will certainly appreciate this feature as the community matures and archival tools like this are increasingly important :)
|
Re: FFR Wiki
Thanks! ;)
A lot of websites went down during the last year + Myspace that changed its layout and deleted tons of useful information. Loss of data is really the main concern I have atm. In the next month, I will make an announcement concerning user pages (ie : adding your own page to the wiki). Don't do it yet, there are a few things I need to set up first. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Giving an example of how the musician pages will look like aftre everything is set up : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/%C3%86on_Spoke
Sections of the page can include : - History/Biography - Musical style and influences - Discography - In-game songs (if there are any) - Permission - FFR career (if the musician has played FFR in past - very rare occurence) - Personal life - Trivia - References None of these sections are mandatory. I will add some additional information to the musician template, so it will look like this : - name (header) - image - aka - born - formed - from (if unsure of origin) - member of (band or doujin for example) - members - genres - label - website - reference Bolded are the new features. I also thought about how to manage user/musician pages. For example, CBR has a FFR and music career, so the musician template will take over the user template. The user template will be similar to the musician template except with less options : - name (header) - image - aka - born - from - website So if the FFR player if suddenly making music, you can easily change {{User by {{Musician and the page won't appear broken. Categories are automated with templates, so you shouldn't have to bother with that. The song template will get a few more options as well : - name (header) - image - originaltitle - aka - album - composer (for classical artists and ost artists) - musician - performer (usually with classical artists) - arranger (ie: for vg artist) - song release date - genre - in game artist (what should appear on ffr) - in game title (what should appear on ffr) - level number - step artist - file release date - song length - difficulty - note count - nps - bpm - category Again, bolded are the new options. I will create more of these icons sooner or later : - Reference (a neutral reference icon for everything that doesn't fit) - deviantArt - Classical Archives - Beatport - Youtube will be modified - All others appears ok I'm taking commissions for these, so if any of you are seeing websites I haven't covered yet (twitch, livestream, snapchat, random music communities, thirdstyle, etc.) Finally, I'm planning to move the blanket and limited artist permissions links into each of their own page and create categories for them, like this. This will be a huge improvement, it will be easier to add a new artist to the permission list (as no manual manoeuvre will be necessary). It will help with the current permission thread - which is hard to maintain and keep it updated... Any comment/addition you would like to see is appreciated. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Small announcement
Reworked the List of Pages which was just too hard to manage, each update was very heavy in size anyway. I've turned that page into a category, more flexible and convenient. The only thing is to remember to add categories when adding a song page. edit : put some redirections (Song + List of Songs), so it's easily accessible via the search bar |
Re: FFR Wiki
!!! Big update !!!
Additional options were added to Template:Song, Template:Songv2 and Template:Musician. The descriptions of the cells were re-written. Users have now the possibility of creating their own page ! You can use this template (or this template if you're a musician) to have an infobox on your page. It's not necessary, but recommended (if you don't I may add it to your user page anyway). You can write what you want but remember that the Wiki has same rules of the forums. Be respectful and factual (ie : it's a wiki). If you don't know where to start, you can check this page to have some ideas : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/Noname219 - it doesn't have to be this big, a few lines about you and your progress as a FFR user can suffice. I didn't change the wiki logo, yet. That's something I want to update (sorry gold stinger :P), but I'm tempted to make this a contest (like the unsuccesful we had for the portal logos...). I'm also tempted to give out credits to people contributing to the wiki. New sets of images, if there's no album/musician/user pictures Improved portal logos Old : New : New website icons In order : IMDB, deviantArt, Classical Archives, Beatport, Youtube (remake) and a generic reference icon. I plan to make some more depending on what people wants or need. That's it for this update. I will spend more time this week starting new articles, writing a few lines (there's a lot of red) and probably managing the portals. After that, I will resume the music research (Song Corrections Thread) and update the Wiki at the same time. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Hey this is pretty awesome! Hopefully some people will take part when they have the time and fill some of the gaps in terms of information.

Re: FFR Wiki
Announcement : I've decided to include monthly credit payoffs. $$$
At the end of each month, I will send send credits to users that have helped the wiki during the month. (until I have no credits left) If you want to be eligible, make sure to create an account and tell me on this thread (or via PM) what is your user name. I will also count relevant information on this thread. Note that the amount of credits is entirely subjective. (but I'll try to make it fair) Monthly payoff since the start of the wiki : Total : 37,500 Midnight and Eze, I will send you credits at the end of the month. ;) |
Re: FFR Wiki
Last 2-3 days were very active for the wiki (thanks Eze ;)). We were ranked 667th in January for the number of modifications. So far, in February alone, we're 29th.
I began to add/move the blanket permissions and create new pages for that. Same for label permissions, there's a new template for labels. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Almost forgot February's credit payoff :
Total : 105,000 + 37,500 = 142,500 I'm capping it at 100,000 credits per person per month because Eze. Btw, hope you enjoy your new promotion. :3 |
Re: FFR Wiki
Eze is now an administrator on the wiki. :) Good luck!!
|
Re: FFR Wiki
noname219, I sent back 20,000 credits because I haven't done anything really productive towards the wiki in the past couple of months. Hoping more people will be able to jump on board with you, even if it's a one-time, or a one-day thing.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
March payoffs
Total : 100,000 + 142,500 = 242,500 |
Re: FFR Wiki
I can help with song info/tips free of charge by the way.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
That would be cool, I think Eze has just finished adding all the songs last week.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
That's awesome, I have lots of tips and tricks to give out for certain higher-end songs. As I said before (in my deleted post), these tips will help players know what to expect in a particular song. I remember, one problem I always had when clearing out levelranks was 'is there a tough difficulty spike in this song? A huge 32nd roll, 16th jack, or some other gay pattern?' only to have my fears invalidated.

Re: FFR Wiki
why isnt there a stepartist section

Re: FFR Wiki

It needs more work, and an article for tips regarding simfile creation would be very useful. It's not one of my priorities at the moment but that doesn't mean you can't start making one. ;) edit : or if you meant a stepartist portal, I was planning on including that section in FFR the Game, for the moment. If it grows larger, I'll make it as a separate portal. |
Re: FFR Wiki
This seems pretty cool. Can't seem to sign up though. When I try to make an account it says username already exists. When I try to say I forgot password it says it can't find that username. Strange

Re: FFR Wiki
Leave the site breaking on FFR plz Sprite.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
@ Sprite : I couldn't find what was the problem. Sorry. :/ Tell me if you happen to find a solution. I'll investigate further on that.
Some more things added on the frontpage, a news section and an activity feed summary. I reworked the layout too, it's ok for the moment, but I would like to take more time on it. |
Re: FFR Wiki
passed 3000 pages. That's some dedication. Keep up the good work.

Re: FFR Wiki
April-May payoffs
Total : 75,000 + 242,500 = 317,500 Almost forgot about this. This month was less active in terms of activity (real life stuff to deal with). At the very least, I included a News section on the front page, the Wiki will be easier to update. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Nice to see that this is still active, wish it got more of the spotlight though.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
Question for you guys leading the wiki: do you have complete access? if not let me know and i can do that for you
|
Re: FFR Wiki
The only thing I can't do is to assign new admins and mods (only a bureaucrat can do that). Other than that, there's nothing I can't access.

Re: FFR Wiki
Been working on a few articles in the last days, mainly the 10th Official Tournament and the FFR PvE Tournament (I will use the same structure for upcoming user tournaments and add them as soon as they end). I'll probably track TWG threads in the near future.
The staff members page have been moved to user titles and reflect what was written by foxfire in the FAQ. I might have missed a couple of simfile judges because they aren't listed anywhere to my knowledge. Also, I've added basic information of many FFR users. (A to H) I added only specific information that can be found in your profile or in the FFR forums. I plan to add more players but that's very low on my to-do list. If you want to add your own page, you can copy the user infobox. |

Re: FFR Wiki
Some really important structural changes and a general clean-up took place today. It is now possible to browse every page of the wiki from the front page or using this page. The portals were converted to categories and the maintenance has been reshaped and completed. (this took longer than expected)
The wiki is still in dire need of writers and researchers so every little contribution you can do will help improve it. ;) |
Re: FFR Wiki
Heyo, I've been inactive on FFR lately but I'm absolutely up to the task of buffing up the wiki's contents. :)
|
Re: FFR Wiki
As the FFR Wiki is now an official resource, it is important to recognize its staff members and active content creators for their hard work in the community.
The "FFR Wiki Staff" usergroup has been founded by noname219, Netjet!, EzExZeRo7497 and gold stinger. Noname219 will be responsible for managing the team. Keep up the great work guys, and good luck! |
Re: FFR Wiki
Planned on getting more involved into this now since there are templates for stuff. I remember trying to do this from scratch and was thinking there was no possible way. Gonna start filling out the stubs for songs because that's gonna take a ton of time to do.
Wanna get started on the more newer songs that were being released as of late. Already did a couple for the first 4 or so songs ever released to FFR as a warmup & example. Let me know if you want other stuff added to song page stubs. |
Re: FFR Wiki
So, I'll be busy with school this week but I'll communicate my plans and the components we should be priorizing in the next few days.
In the meantime, you guys can propose features that could be useful for FFR that we can integrate in the wiki. I'll add them to the bunch I have in mind. I'm also adressing this to all users : if you want to help, and don't know where to start, you can check the Maintenace page or you can go ahead and start/improve an article. ;) @gold stinger : I've skimmed through and it looks pretty good so far. If you link users, use internal links. Oh and imo, references aren't really necessary if they are already linked in the infobox. |
Re: FFR Wiki
Forgot that you're working on implementing the entire profile database into the FFR Wiki. Will make sure to use internal links.
|
Re: FFR Wiki
I will add all the following information in the op a bit later. Here's the next "steps" and some objectives I want to achieve in the upcoming months. This is, of course, not set in stone and any tasks below can be modified or added/removed from the list. The pourcentage is an estimate of the progress made for that task.
The goal of the wiki is to provide a useful and easy to access database of information concerning FFR. Hopefully, it should be the ressource of information to check if someone has a question related to the game. While it's technically on another domain, it should feel like it's part of FFR. GENERAL RULES - They are the same than on FFR : no offensive content, no disrespect towards other people, etc. Wikia has also community guidelines that we should follow. - A very important point I want to make is to respect private information of other users. Everything that's been posted by the user himself on FFR solely can be added on his profile. Also, if a user doesn't want to display certain information concerning himself, we should fulfill his request. - Try to keep an impartial view of the subject you're working on. Reference as much as possible. CRITICAL TASKS [0%] [open to everyone + Noname219] General guidelines for content creators (some tips I found to be more efficient when editing the wiki, how to use wikicode correctlym useful links, etc. Planning to put that content somewhere, probably in the maintenance section. Everyone can submit their tips too.) [--] [open to everyone + Noname219 + Eze] Maintenance & News (That means, all current events must at least be referenced in the news section that I'm currently keeping up to date. We should ensure a minimum of coverage concerning current happenings of the website. That also means all recent songs missing should be added, which is why I added Eze to that task since he already knows where and how to add those songs. Also dead redirects, double redirects, wanted pages to check from time to time) [0%] [Noname219] Integration of Song Corrections Thread and Musical Genres Revamp into the wiki. (I want to make my song research more accessible to users, so they can add their own input. Atm, I'm less preoccupied by the genres revamp, but it's something I want to make progress on.) IMPORTANT TASKS [10%] [open to everyone + Noname219] Musician pages to expand (basic infos+links) (Currently making this. The link section is intimidating for anyonye, but I couldn't found any easy solution. I'm planning to review all the profiles myself but anyone can hop on to help.) [1%] [open to everyone + gold stinger] Song pages to expand (tips/tricks, background info, reception, etc. The information in the infobox will be modified when I successfully integrate the song corrections thread research. @ goldstinger : if you're interested about expanding the songs page, avoid using the 2nd subject "you", "your", etc. Other than that, you can do what you want.) [5%] [open to everyone] Important pages to create/modify (engines, history of the website, community, terminology, etc. Some of them are listed in the portals but many more can be added.) NEXT STEPS [0%] [open to everyone] Permission screenshots to add (if we can find them) [0%] [open to everyone] Cloning pertinent information from the forum (stuff that could be useful on the wiki such as the stickies) [1%] [open to everyone] The Werewolf Games + Tournaments (this takes a while and isn't that of a necessity, but it would make the user pages more complete and pertinent) STUFF THAT IS MOSTLY DONE BUT IS CONSTANTLY EXPANDING - Music genres db - Permissions - Staff/user titles - Locations db - Browsing the wiki using categories and portals |
Re: FFR Wiki
From the look of that wall of text, I'm assuming you're gonna try and start work on integration of the song corrections thread & musical genres revamp. That's cool.
I'm gonna be working on covering the stubs & info for newly released songs, see what I can get in there so that it doesn't look so bare if people are looking up newest songs being added. will tend myself to other sections when I got the free time. |
Re: FFR Wiki
I'm generally done with adding songs into the wiki, I'm missing 6 songs so it should be trivial. I'll probably try to fill up information regarding the songs themselves though, I recognise a good portion of them.

Re: FFR Wiki
I've added all the artist permissions we've got from May 2014 to today. (example : http://ffr.wikia.com/wiki/Jonathan_Coulton) I will (hopefully) add all the older ones I can find. If there's any new permission, they will be tracked too. [task was added to the first post] You can skim through them using this category.
edit : oh yeah I forgot to update the op using post 154... edit2 : done edit3 : as a sidenote, I will add FFR users ONLY IF they have 5 mentions minimum internally on the wiki. However, anyone can create his/her own page even if you're not cited anywhere. |
Re: FFR Wiki
We're the 3rd most active gaming wikia in december so far!
... I've pimped the top navigation bar and added a Help tab for an easy access to some useful pages. Also, we're close to having 3,500 pages total and November saw 1,400 modifications (best month since March). |
Re: FFR Wiki
Since it's kind of topical: what about adding forum awards results?
|
Re: FFR Wiki
It's definitely something to be added in the wiki. I'll try to search for past nominees as well.
