The Wiki is making progress. Just need to finish the three different sorts of weapon and movers and then the wiki will contain enough info to be able to make a basic unit like a marine. Still would like people to help with filling in the unknown fields.

w00t, good work, DSE, :). avogatro was also putting some work in as well, and I know Helral is currently working on the UI stuff, just off the top of my head.

I also do some wiki work from time to time ;p when I need to look something up and it ain't there ;p I usually fill in that gap then. :)
Anyways, DrSuperEvil has been doing a great job of filling in bits wiki pages. Keep up the good work :)
I am aiming to fill in the core pages needed to make simple stuff. Once those are up I believe more people will use the wiki and hopefully contribute. Still would be nice if you lot could try and fill in some of the unknown fields or at least do some R&D into them.
I have not been filling in bits. I have been writing the whole lot with people adding the odd thing afterwards. All avogatro ever seems to do is a simple copy and paste of the names of most of the fields. His page on the weapons overlooked two types of weapon.
Also would be nice if someone could fill in the links at the bottom of the articles. I have left notes as to what it should be linked to but I am not that confident with linking stuff.

you might have noticed that for some pages you've created/adjusted these links are added :)
when I have time and check the wiki history, I usually update those links.
Just looked at the http://www.galaxywiki.net wiki. Really low quality articles. If anything they should be volunteering to join us. As for the Hiveworkshop, my brother is a moderator there so I will try and inform myself about their exact plans for the wiki
Edit: Ok I have checked all the sites that are collaborating with it and they are all very small which have have had less forum posts over the last year than mapsters data forum gets in a day. As far as publications go best I could find was zillion zerglings.......and NOTD being advertized there as well.
As far as the Hiveworkshop goes they are still mainly a WC3 site and want to throw in with a wiki because they cant be bothered to write their own. So far they will either join that wiki or ours.
Yeah, that's basically the gist of it, haha. As I see it, the Hive is still a WC3 site and SEN is still an SC1 site... SC2Mods is basically just the host for Andromeda, and UDMod is just Cloud's team website. Keep up the good work, DSE. Let me know what your brother says, :D.
They are still debating whether to collaborate with mapster. Seems the http://www.galaxywiki.net has sent messages to every site with SC2 support to try and coherce them to join.

Yeah, but there aren't that many SC2 Mapping sites anyway, so... ;p.
We aren't trying to coerce anyone, we're just sending out offers. This isn't some big ploy to unseat SC2Mapster, and this is not supposed to be a competition in any way. I seriously cannot stress that enough. Not everything has to be based on some dumb rivalry. We all get it, SC2Mapster is the best SC2 site around. That is very clear. There are a lot of great SC2 communities out there as well that are relatively small, and we're just asking if they want to take part in contributing to GWN (as we have asked you guys as well).
If The Hive decides to use SC2Mapster's wiki instead, then that's fine. I don't really have an opinion one way or another.
I honestly don't get this "rivalry" thing, devlin, I was a huge part of SEN before to say with much right that this "rivalry" is being made up by you and your immature members who have some sort of SEN pride and unjustified arrogance, more than half your active members don't even have SC2, neither do any SC1 related work at all now.
And seriously this rivalry thing, most of the people in here don't even know what SEN is... mapsters can't possibly be rival of something they aren't even aware of, it just doesn't even make any sense, I'm not even that active on sc2mapster and I notice that most of the members don't even care or know any other sites...
Or I might be wrong and I know nothing about mapster either because I'm not that active.

Well first off, I wasn't talking about the rivalry between SC2Mapster and SEN at all, though I do think its funny you say I'm the one making it up since I'm usually the one who has to do damage control for the actions of my members, and I'm the one talking to Sixen all the time about how dumb it is in the first place. I'm not at all trying to propel the "rivalry" especially considering I'm the one constantly defending SC2Mapster on SEN. When I used the "rivalry" in my prior post, I was referring to what seems to be brewing between the SC2Mapster wiki and GalaxyWiki.net (i.e. posts like DrSuperEvil's where we are seen as some alliance trying to coerce people into joining us and not SC2Mapster). My point in the prior post was that there shouldn't be a rivalry. How many times do I need to say that before it sinks in with everyone? I'm not here as some representative from SEN, I'm here to talk about GWN. I see no issue with multiple communities doing their own thing, we were just trying to make a friendly gesture here. Like I said earlier, we (meaning GWN) would gain a lot from a powerhouse like SC2Mapster as a contributor, but I do understand that they would get nothing in return. That's fine, it doesn't matter.
Maybe I should have rephrased it as "Not everything has to be a dumb competition" so that would have been clearer. I'm not here to argue with anyone, really. Jack asked if we should approach SC2Mapster about GalaxyWiki, and I agreed, especially considering we've all been getting along so well in the more recent months.
First Staredit is Fail not due to its Community, but because its Retro and Featureless site. It needs an upgrade bad, Also the servers are terrible and Whenever I try to sign in or just view the site, it doesnt load... You guys need an entire Overhaul. lawl
and 2nd. The Mapping Community is soo small, people need to quit being morons and go map. This is a place of Intellectuals(atleast I hope) to Collaborate and make maps for Sc2. Not saying you have to be mature, but just send your stupidity a way it wont hurt the community
Could the wiki possibly get its own forum section so we can work together on it. And disscuss changes.
People have been making topics in Off-topic and general chat to talk about the wiki but they always get burried.
It would be nice to have a WIKI only section where people can post stuff
lots of stuff really it would help some of us organize that want to see it improved.
Great idea, ;).

Now on topic, what can I do to help? I think you guys are still lacking a bit on graphics tutorials, I can work on data and porting data from my old unfinished graphics tutorials here: http://farty1billion.dyndns.org/starcraft%20ii%20graphics%20guide/
Well first off, I wasn't talking about the rivalry between SC2Mapster and SEN at all, though I do think its funny you say I'm the one making it up since I'm usually the one who has to do damage control for the actions of my members, and I'm the one talking to Sixen all the time about how dumb it is in the first place.

SENS WIKI LINK SHOULD JUST POINT TO SC2MAPSTER.... imho
galaxy wiki doesn't even point to sc2mapster.com
kinda sad considering sc2mapster is the most informative place on the web for map editing.
I say let google be judge. Also what is the unique selling point of SENS?
