I, for one, welcome our new Wiki Overlords! --Bartv 21:01, 14 September 2005 (CEST)

All your Blender documentation are belong to us. --Spiderworm 00:00, 15 September 2005 (CEST)

Hrmm, thought I might add a suggestion for the site that I found helpful on the noob to pro wiki. A table was made at the top showing completion percentages that used little icons next to each section. I would just skip the clear ones as it had no text. Might be a good idea here, except with the four squares, you can use the blender icons of wireframe to potato mode or a 3d object with different levels of details, so I can stop clicking on blank pages lol! I'm still a noob here so, I can't really contribute anything, just learn. =) --Chrysm 00:09, 29 October 2005 (CEST)

[edit] Questions

I couldn't find anything in the BlenderWiki:About or BlenderWiki:Community_Portal, so I guess I'll ask here. I was wondering if the BlenderWiki is just going to be the Blender Manual and that's it. Will the site have separate articles on general 3D topics, like Cartesian coordinates, primitives, vertices, ray tracing, etc.? The reason I'm asking is because I've often thought a wiki would be a good replacement for the old Blender Knowledge Base, not to mention a good place to cover the numerous tutorials scattered throughout the web. Plus, the wiki format is a great place to create articles on things that aren't covered elsewhere, but might be important to a Blender user, like the difference between a JPG, PNG, and/or GIF file, or an article on chromakey.

MediaWiki is very flexible, but I think we might be short-changing ourselves (and the rest of the community) if the site only focuses on the manual.

Just my two cents. --Lafnlab 21:54, 31 October 2005 (CET)

Hi Lafnlab, look around the Blender main page - the hackers guide can contain the technical information, there is a tutorial section of the wiki already, etc. -- LetterRip Hi, im new here and a blender-noob, but i like the idea of an extandable tutorial through a project. Perhaps with open-ended storyboard. Naturally with background topics linked in the wiki.

[edit] BlenderWiki in a .chm file

I think we need to put this information somewhere here on wiki:

[edit] Game Manual

Proposel for game manuel by User:Alabandit Index for Game Manual

[edit] English glossary?

Is anybody against me adding an english (and maybe german) counterpart of Manual.fr/Glossary and Manual.es/Glosary?

... and further create a template that lets you switch between them like this one: Template:NAV/Manual ?
