[edit] Add Codex Link

A link should be add to the Main Categories for the Codex category. Just a thought. --68.57.76.139 22:42, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Featured articles

Info on featured articles can be found on Mass Effect Wiki:Featured content. Create and nominate more! :) Kirkburn (talk) 13:29, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Changes

  • The Planets and Space stations categories are both covered by Star Systems so I deleted them. Also changed the link for Systems to go to Milky_Way. (Unsigned)
  • Changed the link to the release trailer on the main page since the older one was not working. The new video is on Youtube here. Darkdrium 06:07, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cleaning up the list

I cleaned up the main list as several of the links were covered by more comprehensive sections.

Armor and Weapons are both covered by the Equipment section. Systems is covered by the Milky Way section.

I added those items because the "Contents" section is an index of what's inside this wiki and every listing page, including those part of a larger category, should be represented. Armor should be more comprehensive than the armor section of Equipment (and Heavy Armor more comprehensive on its subject), same for Weapons and so on. Therefore we should include them for easy indexing, the purpose of that section, without sending users through multiple pages.

[edit] Looking for more Admins

I am looking for more Administrators as some have tended to leave and I now am quite busy with work. I will still be around but not as much and with the constant vandalisms and new users I need more people to help out. So if you want become an admin go here Mass Effect Wiki:Requests for Adminship. It's not that difficult just keep checking the recent changes page for new people to say hello to and make sure no unregistered people are adding things they shouldn't. Thanks. aa

[edit] General Articles

A lot of articles about actions (like in the Game Guide) are written from a Xbox point of view, this should be changed to also reflect it's now a multi-platform game. I'd do it if I run into it, but I'm not playing the game yet, so I really don't know anything about it. It's on my to-buy-list, that's why I'm reading this wiki. Just to improve overall quality, I say what I have to say.--157.100.47.114 20:20, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redesign

I've given the main page a redesign, but kept all the info, and the colour scheme - you can find out more about why on User talk:Kirkburn/Dev. Thanks! Kirkburn (talk) 12:09, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Featured Media

Hello. It's been some time since I've been here. Bioware released today another video for Mass Effect 2, which should be put under the featured media. I would do it myself, but I have no idea how and fear for breaking the main page with a useless edit. Here is the link. :) Darkdrium 21:43, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Good thinking. Actually we need a better system for nominating featured media and featured articles. We have some great stuff on here and it's not being shown off. --Tullis 22:15, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] KOTOR Parelels

does anyone think we should have a page containing ingame parelels toStar Wars: Knights of the Old Republic? Drsdino 02:59, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Not really. There aren't enough, and besides, Mass Effect is influenced more by classic sci-fi than Star Wars. If there are parallels that leap out at you, they're probably better placed on pages' Trivia sections. That would make them easier to find. --Tullis 03:52, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

well why not Halo then? what I've seen a lot of parelels with the last level of combat evolved. specificly the race to the Conduit on Ilos. Drsdino 18:05, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

Ditto: if you see parallels that really stand out, add them to Trivia. But I wouldn't say they warrant an entire page to themselves. Like I said, such a page probably wouldn't see much traffic; adding them to Trivia sections would give comments more coverage. : ) --Tullis 20:20, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] E3 trailer

I've added the new E3 trailer. Hope nobody minds.

BorderlineWaxwork 09:20, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

I certainly don't, means I don't have to fiddle with that irritating YouTube link. : ) Thanks. --Tullis 13:16, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
