Thoughts on a wiki

Post by **desirecampbell** » Sat Apr 18, 2009 8:53 am

So, I just read over SSJBejittoGT's thread wherein he mentioned being deaf, and it got me to thinking about transcripts for the podcast and that train of thought snowballed into "Wiki EX".

So, I thought I'd ask around for thoughts about starting a Wiki: good idea/bad idea? too much work/not enough material to bother with? too many contributors/noone have enough time?

Well, it wouldn't be that hard to go through if some people on this forum gather, and divide the number of podcasts into equal shares, and then they write a summary or transcript of them.
Or, people can just choose a podcast they like and write a summary or something.
When they are done, they e-mail it to VegettoEX and he'll put it up if it's good enough.

I like the idea, especially because of that I don't have the time to listen through every podcast (lots of studies all the time). I am a fast reader so I would save a lot of time in that way and also I would be on track with these discussions that people bring up in the threads.
Also, people with hearing problems, and people such as me, with not enough time, can take part of the podcasts.
The few ones I have listened to were really interesting and fun, but it was time consuming.

Coming from someone used to typing up summaries (currently the only one in the running to be editor for the DBK guide on tv.com) doing transcripts shouldn't be that hard to do. Though I will say that if I were to do some, they'd have to be from episodes I'm even remotely interested in, otherwise it'd be pretty boring.

Other than transcripts, what else would the Wiki include? Short bios on the hosts, guests and e-mailers (if they happen to be on the forum)?

Would this fall under the proposed idea of a Daizex member runned DB Wikia that would actually be...accurate?

Then again, with DaizenshuuEX and Kanzentai as they are now there's not really any reason to do so, other than to make searching easier...

Made one!

It doesn't have any articles yet, but there is a nice little video for y'all to check out.

Feel free to edit and add articles!

It sounded catchy at the time.

Would it be about Dragon ball or Daizex.com?

Hm... that would be a good idea, doing transcripts for the podcast. We should get a lot of the forum members to help.
