license
What about the license? GPL? CC-something? Ducon 11:02, 9 Jan 2005 (PST)


 * GFDL. See Wikicities copyrights. Angela 09:22, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * Thanks, that’s what I thought. And what about that doesn’t work? Ducon 09:30, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * It's a known bug. Special:Statistics doesn't work either. There is a list of reported bugs at . Fredrik 09:36, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * OK. Ducon 09:38, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * 56 to be specific. :) Angela 13:30, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)

Doom3 here?
Can Doom3 be mentioned here? Ducon 09:38, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * Of course. However, I think this wiki should focus on the classic games. If someone wants to get into detail I won't try to stop them, but the info should be labelled appropriately (for example, the Doom 3 monsters should have separate articles, like Doom 3 imp or Imp (Doom 3)).

whew!
well I just organized every article by category. If you want to mess around with my listings, feel free, but I gave a jumpstart for ya :D whew! --Insertwackynamehere 19:27, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)

Front page stuff

 * Should we have a "non-Id people" section on the front page? Fraggle 03:37, 11 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * A better question could be: must we have a "Id-Software employees" section? Personally, I don't think so! Plus, they should be categorized on the "People" section. I made for John Anderson an attempt of double categorization, in order to allow non specialists to find them easily. So, my suggestion is double:
 * 1) should we keep the "Id-Software employees" section?
 * 2) If yes, what about a double categorization for these men? --Jive 02:11, 1 Feb 2005 (PST)

Fraggle: RE non-id people
While categorizing everything, I created a category "People" as a sub-category of "Community" Insertwackynamehere

Well, if we're going to do it that way I think we should have a clean separation on the front page between "Id" related stuff (monster descriptions, original levels, etc. etc.) and community (megawads, etc.) Fraggle 10:01, 11 Jan 2005 (PST)

Are automap images copyrighted?

 * I was wondering if it is okay to upload automap images captured in doombuilder of the levels from doom, doom2, etc...
 * Of course, it's okay! Those maps can be seen on a bunch of sites, and the purpose is not to rip anything but to centralize informations. There is no possible spy activity, as far as the maps can be seen freely within an editor. You can make as many screenshots as you want of games and publish them (for free) everywhere, as long as you put also the origin and the copyright of the game (if there is one) if you publish it on another site unrelated to it. So, here is a site about Doom, and you don't have to recall that it's a copyrighted game. The copyright of a screenshot belongs to its creator!! Which means that we can't use a screenshot ripped to another site, because of this copyright. --Jive 03:47, 1 Feb 2005 (PST)
 * Appearing on "other sites" doesnt make it okay here. Everything on the Doom wiki is supposed to be available under th GFDL.  It is probably okay to display map images under fair use, although we should attach a tag informing the reader that it is copyrighted material. Fraggle 06:42, 1 Feb 2005 (PST)

screenshot template
It says the image is from Doom or Doom II but some screens are from Doom 3, Hexen, Heretic, or Strife.
 * Done, but you can do it yourself too. Ducon 10:03, 11 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * heh i know, I was just nervous about messing with copyright stuff Insertwackynamehere
 * I just deleted the mentions of Doom and Doom II. Ducon 10:32, 11 Jan 2005 (PST)

Master levels
Should the master levels come under "Games" as they are somewhat official? Fraggle 03:43, 12 Jan 2005 (PST)


 * Yeah, probably. -- Fredrik 03:47, 12 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * Yeah, of course! What do you mean by "somewhat"?!? The master levels were officially released on the 25th of December 1995 as a game to buy on a full box, and was distributed by GT Interactive. You can also find it as one of the 3 CDs in "The Depth of Doom Trilogy". You can also buy it as a downloadable product -- Jive 01:58, 31 Jan 2005 (PST)

Doom TNC article not working
What's the deal with Doom: The Next Chapter's page and the error? Check it at Fan-made Doom games.
 * It happens because the doom: prefix is reserved for interwiki links. I can't think of any workaround except to rename the articles. Fredrik 23:05, 20 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * I'd do that but I have no idea how to get to edit the article now that it's blocked by the error. Janizdreg 16:11, 25 Jan 2005 (PST)
 * 61. Angela 04:01, 27 Jan 2005 (PST)

 * You can't search for words less that 4 letters long. It should work otherwise. I'll try to get the error replaced with a more useful message. Angela 09:22, 10 Jan 2005 (PST)
