New page

Hello! Welcome to [[BDWiki]]. The goal of ''BDWiki'' is to become the ultimate encyclopedia of all things [[Broken Dagger]]. Anything and everything that has to do with this [[Role-Playing|role-playing]] forum will be included here. The [[Special:Allpages|articles]] are being written collaboratively. Entries are edited by anyone—records of changes are kept. We have created ''{{NUMBEROFARTICLES}}'' articles since starting in April of 2006 and we keep on growing as you keep [[Role-Playing|playing]]!

Fantastic and creative [[players|people]], like you, are very active in building this project. While you are reading this, it is likely someone is editing some entry. Already at work have been many, very imaginative and experience [[players]], but everybody is welcome! Contributing does not require logging in, but we'd like to know who you are. You can dive right in and add to, fix, or create any page you like. If it pleases you, we invite you to drop in as often as you can! You can be bold, and even should be, [[Wiktionary:Be bold in updating pages|in updating pages]]. You might like the "[[special:Recentchanges|Recent Changes]]" page.

Above all, play nice.

One of the most important things you should know is that we have borrowed from our sister project [http://en.wikipedia.org Wikipedia] some cultural norms that you should respect: We try not to argue pointlessly. This isn't a debate forum. If you have a problem with someone regarding the content of a particular article, please talk to an [[Operators|Operator]]. At any point, if you are uncomfortable changing someone else's work and you want to add a thought (or question or comment) about an entry or other page, the place to do this is its "Talk Page" (click on the "discussion" tab at top or the "Discuss this page" link in the sidebar or elsewhere, depending on your preference skin). Though again, generally, we try to avoid discussion for its own sake.

You might expect BDWiki to be a low-quality product because it is open for everybody to edit. But, perhaps the fact it ''is'' open to everyone creates the potential for making a lot of these articles great and, of course, ever-improving.

We hope you have fun and learn something new about this environment that we all love so much.
