Khan main paged on wiki

Post by Teaos »

Not really a huge deal but I noticed Khan Noonien Singh is on the front page of wiki. Impressive considering it usually doesnt do fictional characters.

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

I'm trying to figure out how the wiki-nazis managed to miss this and let it survive on their site.

And become featured which means it was reviewed by ranking members.

Maybe this means that saner people have now taken over Wikipedia?



Yeah, you can stop laughing now.

There are quite a few fictional characters on their. At least oBSG Commander Adama and nBSG Adama are on there (separate entries) and starships and technology and such are there as well.

They used to have tonnes of fictional characters up there. Now they seem to have culled it down to the main character from each show.

They've been purging many similar things however. Some are surviving but lots haven't. They went through the WH40K articles with a chainsword.There used to be a good bit about it but they just leveled it.

Come on.......it's Khan! The single coolest basass in Trek. Of course he gets his own page.

I think they are now relying on other wikias to hold all the trivial information about fictional characters. Any show thats at all popular has a wiki now. So there is no reason for the original wiki to host the information as well. This is one thing I dont really mind them doing. Stick to the main guys and leave it to the other wikias to deal with the rest.
