Re: Thanks for all the help
The point of a Wiki is that people add and correct the work of previous submitters and that no one has "dibs" on any particular section. Thus, do MA Abby and if someone manages to beat you to it, add your stuff to theirs.
That said, with so much left to do, I can understand the desire to avoid duplication of effort.
For my part, I have done the base work on EA Ulm, EA Mictlan, Helheim, and MA Ermor. It is all blatantly inaccurate and of dubious quality so I encourage people to go in there and fix it. Plus, I specifically insulted your mother and you really ought to go in and erase that part.

You got it on the second part there.
I'm not asking for dibs, but with more than 50 nations and a handful of complete guides, it'd be really disappointing if I put upwards of 40 hours of testing and whatnot, which seems to be about what's necessary so far(for me), and then spend 5-6 hours writing thousands of words about what I found out, only to find out someone already did it and my time would have been better spent doing a nation that no one has done any work on.
Adding a 30 second sentence to help us all work together is going to avoid headaches for me personally. That's all, I'm not trying to be important or better than anyone or anything like that, I'm just letting people know what's going on.

This is kinda why i separated "objective" information like units, national features, from strategies, so you can write without getting in the way of others. I kinda doubt it would be worth it to rework what has already been done, at least for now.
There's a template {{wip}} that lets people know you're working on a section. Just add it to the top of the page you're working on (be sure to, you know, actually work on it if you mark it). I went ahead and added it to MA abysia so you can see. (it's not that obvious though
 )

Re: Thanks for all the help
Morkilus,
i started using to copy your gems into the not-yet existing nation guides. It is very useful, i was able to make the Atlantis guide more pretty with it. A small suggestion:
What do you think about moving the headline "National Summons" into two seperate Sub-headlines under the "Units" and "Commander" sections ? While most national summons will be units, some summons like Late Age Ulm Vampire Lords are Commanders.
Question: Where to put your wonderful guide template if someone is actually doing an Abysia Guide ?

wiki overwork
started to clean up the table of contents:
http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Dominio...le_of_Contents
It is still not perfect yet but has more structure now.
Links to "Thugs", "SC", "Prophets" are made but not filled.

Re: wiki overwork
Thanks for the template, it made it really easy to learn the code and whatnot.
I'd suggest adding it somewhere as a downloadable .txt file though instead of putting it in a nation.

wikipedia entry
I added some "overview" to the wikipedia article about dom3:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominions_3:_The_Awakening
It could still use some help. The goal is to give people who never played any dominoins game (or any computer game at all) a short description of what dominions3 *is*. And not going to much into detail because that is what the strategywiki http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Dominions_3:_The_Awakening is for.
