Since when did the "masterwork" mod become important important enough to deserve incorporation into the wiki? Does this mean that we can other mods' content to the wiki? There is a risk that "vanilla" articles will become contaminated with MW links, in the sense that a noob user could go to a MW page without knowing that it was an unofficial mod. --[[User:UristDaVinci|UristDaVinci]] ([[User talk:UristDaVinci|talk]]) 04:40, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

:It's an experiment I authorized.  There are enough Masterwork Mod users that a wiki would help them greatly, and considering it's the same game, it seems an appropriate place to store content.  We already allow mod information on the wiki (we even have an entire namespace for it, and have had it since before we even did versioning on this wiki), so this is not really that much different. There is little risk that vanilla articles would be contaminated with MW links, as you put it, because frankly it doesn't make sense to do it.  We're also experimenting with templates to make it obvious that this is mod content as well. I think calling this pretentious is pretentious in its own right. --[[User:Briess|Briess]] ([[User talk:Briess|talk]]) 05:03, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

You had a a good arguement until you called him pretentious as well. Mods and espically this one deserve their own place on the wiki, but I don't think it should be be incorperated to the front page. Lets not be favoring anything in paticular; a framework and set of rules should be made for mod pages. Honestly, its all or nothing. Also, what defines "enough" users? Comon guys lets be professional about this to some extent. If anyone cares to retort this I'll just let them know now I dont intend to argue the point beyond what I've said. Its just food for thought.
