I'm reposting the below as last time it didn't really go anywhere: Wikia has partnered with Gamespot to let them link to our some of Wikia's game wikis. This is a great way to promote our wikis to Gamespot's readers and recruit new readers and editors. We launched four of them in November (Halo, Call of Duty, Mass Effect, and Tabula Rasa) and we are planning to add a bunch more in February, including Final Fantasy Wiki. They are interested in adding a Final Fantasy Wiki tab to their Gamespot Final Fantasy gamepage. This tab would look identical to the Halopedia Tab. The content (Featured articles, Recent Changes, Popular Articles) is generated via a content feed that Wikia sets up.

| - I believe the admins should decide, since they are the ones who will be changing it every week/two weeks, whichever you decide on.
- Alright, I've started to edit it. To make things easier, I will start with the Featured Articles from 2008. Also, I'll protect it so only admins can edit it.
EDIT: In the process of cleaning this up, I must say I'm not too keen on it. It looks a little messy.
- I brought this up a million years ago, but nobody seemed to do anything about it. So I guess I'll start up again. Since this is Diablo's thing, he should fix it. All the little monthly Featured Article boxes are incorrectly named. The pages they are on are called "Final Fantasy Wiki:This Week's Featured Article/Yo Yo Ma" or whatever. That's clearly wrong because 1) they should be subpages of this page, and 2) we don't even have weekly featured articles. Its openly misleading.
- The problem is, I don't really know that much about coding and the like. That's really Hecko's department.
- No excuse other than laziness I'm afraid. I'll go through the templates in a while and put them all under the correct sub-page.
EDIT: Done. And it was only late into my moving spree, in the 2006 era, that I realised there's a "Don't create redirect" tick box. >_<

We launched four of them in November (Halo, Call of Duty, Mass Effect, and Tabula Rasa) and we are planning to add a bunch more in February, including Final Fantasy Wiki. They are interested in adding a Final Fantasy Wiki tab to their Gamespot Final Fantasy gamepage. This tab would look identical to the Halopedia Tab. The content (Featured articles, Recent Changes, Popular Articles) is generated via a content feed that Wikia sets up. For this to work for Final Fantasy Wiki, I would need your help setting up a Featured Content templates similar to how Mass Effect does it. This allows the Wikia feed to send Gamespot featured content snippets and images. There are instructions for how to do this on w:c:inside:Featured Article System. This is slightly urgent, and would be very beneficial to the site! Kirkburn (talk) 20:43, 5 February 2008 (UTC) I will see about setting up examples to help. Kirkburn (talk) 20:53, 5 February 2008 (UTC) I spoke to them previously, but it didn't go anywhere :( Kirkburn (talk) 15:48, 6 February 2008 (UTC) See Final Fantasy Wiki:Featured content. This is the generally preferred design for Gamespot to "harvest" it, though the excerpts would likely have to be smaller. In order to use it on the Main Page, you could have the border area separate to the content, and put the writing inside that? There's more info on Featured Article System on Inside Wikia which should be able to help. Kirkburn (talk) 16:04, 6 February 2008 (UTC) Oh, you also don't have to convert every page over, that's up to you - there just need to be enough for Gamespot to show a relatively good selection on their page. I think you can also change the X on the Template:FA/X to an article name, so long as it's listed on Final Fantasy Wiki:Featured content. Kirkburn (talk) 16:06, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
