I have it there because it's part of the history of the game, and it leads in to a small bit about the Mission Editor too.


 :huh :headscratch:

I'm not seeing anything new added.... It's just a single paragraph at the top and the HTC employee list below that. Then it's got 3 external links.

Did they reverse your new additions?

Are we talking about the same page?  The one I worked on was this one: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aces_High_%28video_game%29
Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

I was looking at this one:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HiTech_Creations

I just looked at the link you gave, and it also looks like a 1-paragraph blurb on gameplay. History of April 24 shows what I assume was your work, then some dingus went and restored the previous version just today.

why not just have the regular wiki have a link to the Aces high wiki, that is self hosted.....???
"When one considers just what they should say to a new pilot who is logging in Aces High, the mind becomes confused in the complex maze of info it is necessary for the new player to know. All of it is important; most of it vital; and all of it just too much for one brain to absorb in 1-2 lessons" TC

I haven't updated that one at all.

Nope, that wasn't me - my stuff is still there.  I think it's all ok, since I provided proper sources etc.

I'm 99% sure that wouldn't qualify as a reliable 3rd party source, especially since it's hosted by HTC.

I dunno what's going on with wiki... When I went there just now it had none of that. It had a small blurb. Going to the history tab let me see the other stuff. Now that you say nothing is missing I go back and without going to the history tab I see all the missing stuff again!


The first time I wnt (when it was missing) I refreshed it several times just to be sure!!!


Strange things are afoot at the Circle K.  :noid

Perhaps signing up for an account would help, it gives you access to the 'Beta' version of Wikipedia which seems to be perfect as far as I can tell (maybe you can access it w/o signing up, not sure).
