  • I want to find additional admin(s) for this wiki. If you think you'd be a good admin, post here and get community consensus behind your adminship electionism stuff and whatnot. --Briess 09:10, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
    • What does it take to be a good Dwarf Fortress Wiki admin? What does an admin do? And which skills are required to do it? --Nahno 17:39, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
      • This. What is an admin's job here? --Señor Pwnage 03:49, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
    • As conceited as it sounds, I'd like to put myself in the running for this position. I've administrated a wiki before, and tend to check back in here a lot anyway, and can catch a lot of what goes on. --Aescula 20:41, 16 February 2010 (UTC)


  • The wiki has a new owner. His first act was to add advertisements to profit off of our volunteer labor. VengefulDonut 20:09, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
    • THE ADVERTISEMENTS MUST FLOW! actually, I just moved them from the bottom to the side because the bottom stuff was breaking some of the layout code. Briess 20:36, 15 September 2009 (UTC)



  • Screenshots! Take interesting screenshots of parts of your fortress. Upload them to the wiki. Put them here and see them on the main page. VengefulDonut 12:19, 11 June 2009 (UTC)



  • A new standard for avoiding overly-long quotes on the main page has been suggested and posted - Quote discussion page.--Albedo 04:14, 29 May 2009 (UTC)



There had been about 5-6 pages on "defense", and suggestions and advice on various topics were scattered and repeated across all of them. The first stage of the effort to re-organize them into 4 tightly defined and user-friendly topics using current DF wiki naming conventions has resulted in 4 pages: a General guide and overview (rewrite of Defense guide article), and 3 new articles on specific design - layout and architecture (Defense design), traps (Trap design), and specific advice on organizing your military (Military design).
Discussion from any pages removed or renamed will be placed (or linked) under one of those four. Discussion re this re-organization is on the Talk:Fortress defense page.

  • There is a more specific discussion of the several various (and often redundant) "defense" pages, and possibly combining, rewriting and/or reformatting them, on the Talk:Fortress defense page. --Albedo 05:34, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
  • "Defense" rewrite" rough re-organization completed


  • There is currently a discussion regarding the general style and philosophy of this wiki, of "what deserves its own page" on the Talk:Main Page. Any and all are welcome to chime in.--Albedo 05:34, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
