Wikia ACG
ACG is a Taiwanese term which means "Anime, Comics, Games" which in North American terms would mean "Anime, Manga, Cartoons, Comics, and Video Games". Graphical Entertainment isn't a term known by anyone, and Afker finally prodded me enough to get me to rename the project. We're mostly renaming because We can't use GE for the wiki, ie http://ge.wikia.com can't be taken by the project. So by using Wikia ACG instead we can use http://acg.wikia.com and also ACG:.. for interwiki (There's a technical system being developed that requires a interwiki link in the map). ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) (tricks) (current topic) Sep 11, 2007 @ 08:51 (UTC)


 * Well, I'm glad that you dropped the Graphical Entertainment name, but I think this one might be even more confusing. Will English-speaking users know what ACG means? I'm also a little confused about the video games aspect. Are you planning to have the project include all of the gaming wikis? -- Danny (talk ) 09:18, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Big wikis punctuation
Hey, Toughpigs. I noticed you have been reverting my edit(s) on the Big wikis "hub." What's your reasoning for removing the spacing surrounding that em dash? As far as I know (and both The Chigago Manual of Style and The Oxford Guide to Style agree with me), em dashes should not be surrounded by spaces. --Imperialles 22:51, 5 September 2007 (UTC)


 * I just don't think it looks good. That Wikipedia link actually shows that there's a lot of disagreement about how to use dashes. It says that modern practice sets it open rather than closed, and The Elements of Typographic Style recommends an open en dash. Personally, I would rather go back to the way it was originally, an open double dash. -- Danny (talk ) 00:02, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

TTN says "go to TV.com and Wikia" - but that is *not* the same thing. Speaking for myself, if I wanted speculation, fan theories, and "what if" scenarios, sure, I'd go to those sites. That, however, is *not* what I want out of an article, and not what I want to work on.
