Invitation and Greeting DB fans

Post by JediMindTrix91 » Fri Oct 02, 2015 9:02 am

Hello! Greetings, from us over at the Dragon Universe Wiki. We're a nascent wiki formed in the wake of the existence of the Dragon Ball Wiki itself; despite it being a long-standing wiki, I believe it's more or less well accepted that it doesn't have the most accurate information. Preferences for dub terms, treating GT as canon in spite of it not being so, generally disregarding Toriyama despite the fact that he's the author, and trying to compile everything in the series into one giant "let's not offend anyone" kind of database.

That can't function, at least not function and serve it's purpose as an accurate encyclopedia. So a small group of users have decided to work on a new wiki — one that will try its best to adhere to factual information to the best of our abilities; manga and the original Japanese take precedence before the dub and the original anime. (We skew on this when it comes to the Super anime, but that's because it has the most of Toriyama's involvement, rather than the manga, which is headed primarily by Toyable).

After looking around, it appears that Kanzenshuu itself and our wiki are of like-minds, so we're approaching you in the hopes that you'd be able to lend us a hand. Creating this kind of wiki is no easy task, and it's not something we expect to finish with the snap of our fingers. However, if there's anyone here willing to lend their aid, we'd certainly appreciate it; our wiki could use more hands, and Kanzenshuu, as one of the foremost databases on the Dragon Ball series, would be a great asset to us if you could lend us your assistance! Best regards, Dragon Universe Wikia.

Welcome to the board!
It should be said that Kanzenshuu is already working on a wiki to be incorporated to the site with some users given editing privileges, so they might not have time or see the point in working on another one, but good luck with your project. Maybe it will even be up and running before Kanzenshuu's.
