Fan pages for Dean and Teri (and others), including their other projects;... Great idea! A fine movie like Boa (New Alcatraz) deserves its own page on the wiki!

Great idea! A fine movie like Boa (New Alcatraz) deserves its own page on the wiki! <snort> I had thought that the wiki wouldn't focus too much on the actors because its really more about the show and the fandom, not to mention that there are plenty of sites already on the net dedicated to Teri and Dean, etc. To begin we probably would just have short bios for them and a link to other fansites. Those other ideas are great, Mellie, stuff I hadn't even thought of. That's why I am so excited about this project - we can all be total fan geeks and pull out all the crazy facts we have stored in the back of our brains!

There is the obvious content like information about the show, episode descriptions, cast information, featured songs,... But also information about the fans, fanfic, music videos, folcfests,...
(snip)
So, what else can we put on it? Character bios, timelines, a lexicon (where we can define things like Jimmy Interruptus, ORK, the ARGH), history of the fandom. If we get really ambitious we could include a guide for vid makers listing eps where you can find clips of certain things - Clark winking, Lois singing, stuff like that. Finding all the clips I want is my main vid making hang up. Keep the ideas coming!

I'm not really a music video maker myself (I have one unfinished video lol), but I think that could be very useful. And not just for videos, also for screencaps/icons/motivational posters. Oh, and maybe not just a list of songs featured on Lois & Clark, but also other Superman related songs. And maybe a few tutorials on how to make music videos, icons, wallpapers, write fanfic,... it doesn't have to be very detailed, maybe just basic. It could be a help to fans who haven't made anything yet, but want to give it a try. Just had another inspiration. What about a finished guide to CK's ties? Like The Ultimate, Definitive, Guide to Clark Kent\'s Ties , but then for the entire show. Although that does seem like a lot of work. But the whole point of a wiki is to share the work. Not something I see myself doing though Oh, and a guide to Lois & Clark kisses, and hugs, etc... And we can't forget... a guide to shirtless Clark moments

A lot of the information and tid-bits (like Lois Clark kisses hugs, how many spectacles for CK, how many characters knew CK=Superman) etc can be found in the on-and-off quizzes featured on this board and Zoomway's boards. (I remeber from 2004 when I used to participate.. I have no idea if they're still on or no) Just an idea and umm I can help compile...,
If she had to move heaven and Earth, perhaps come back to haunt Perry and explain the story after they'd killed her, she would do it.

I guess I'm in, although I voted otherwise. Sounds like fun. But don't expect too much from me. I've still got two WIPs and other stuff I want to write. Like for my courses...

Great idea! A fine movie like Boa (New Alcatraz) deserves its own page on the wiki! Dead and Deader is also a very good choice! I also think there are plenty of sites dedicated to Teri and Dean. Well, I know nothing about setting up websites, so I'd be useless on the committee (and I've got too many betas and too many WIPs to really do that), but maybe I could help with a short article or two... or three...

Oops, that with the articles is what I meant, too. I don't know anything about that computer stuff, either. Sorry if I was giving the wrong impression.

If you do this, it'd be nice to have a timeline of events, especially ones that happen before the series start. Things like Lois going to Ireland at the age of 17 and leaving her father. Might be useful for the writers, right?

I'd love an LnC Wiki. I've been poking around a fic idea and I'd love a central place to go to look up all the things I can't remember if they're canon or fanon. I use the Smallville Wiki ( http://smallville.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page) constantly. ~M

Sounds like fun! I wouldn't mind helping out where I could. Bwahaha! Not sure if I'd be able to financially, though. Kinda lotsly brokt.
Mmm cheese.

I was looking at this thread:
http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=5;t=001933
And realized that would have been a perfect use of a wiki board.
Did anything ever come of this project?

Did anything ever come of this project? A few of us were talking about it via email for a while - different programs, web services, etc - but real life intervened before we got it done. I still think it's a really great idea but I've realized that I unfortunately don't have the time to head it up myself.

After seeing this wiki entry for the episode in ST:TNG Timescape I really think it would be great if we could do something similar for LNC. I'd be happy to give some articles a go. James

I was wondering about this a few days ago. I'd like to continue what we've started! Anyone who wants to help, please do! We could finish the Complete, Ultimate Guide to Clark Kent's Ties! For anyone interested, I'll go ahead and post the "categories" we came up with, so you kind of have an idea of how things will look (IF we ever finish this): - Timeline: episodes, stuff that happens before/after the series (like Lois going to Ireland), etc. - Characters: from superman to villains, from starring roles to teeny weeny guest roles, bios, and so on - The show itself: like the making of, premieres, cast info, featured songs, bloopers, "famous mistakes" - FoLCdom: fans, fanfic, MVs, folcfests, history of the fandom, tutorials on how to make/upload vids/fanfic, ... - Superman in other media: the comics, the movies, the series, differences between them, you name it - Miscellaneous/Details: lexicons; every "eensy weensy, microcosmic" detail like clark's ties, lois's outfits, superman related songs, all the places in and around metropolis, list of superman rescues, and, of course, shirtless clarks! :p
I love the smell of fear in the newsroom.

I'm still interested The last months, I have been very busy with school work but today was my last day of doing school work EVER. I had to present my end project and everything went fine so I can finally graduate and have more free time I'll look into it this week. At the moment I am way too tired because I got only like 2,5 hours of sleep last night.

AFAIK, many wikkis use Wikia , and the homepage says it's free. Shall we? I'll contribute as much as I can.
