User blog:Unnamed Field Marshall/Universe Expansion

Hello everybaw-dayyy. This is my first blog of 2015, also intentionally produced on my birthday. So in this one, I'm going to talk about canon expansion for the THDF universe. You may have noticed that some of the more illustrious wikis have thousands of pages, such as the Elder Scrolls Wiki, Wookiepedia, Halo Nation, and Pokemon Wiki, to name a few. Hundreds of articles among those thousands are there to provide background information, even if some of those pages are basically stubs with an extra sentence.

As of today (1/6/15), I see that our wiki has only 335 pages, and to attain a true grasp on the full plot, one would have to spend hours and hours reading through each roleplay. The purpose of articles is to summarize all noteworthy information/events in less time. For example, how many of you actually know what the purpose of the Moon Base of Yoth was before Heathcliff and co. destroyed it?

Why was it important? What did it do? Who built it? Anything important to know about prior to the fall?

I'm confident that nobody, myself included, knows the answer to those questions, and a new wikia contributor interested in said topic would have to scroll through the Fall of Yoth thread to find out. To spare anyone this agonizing(?) procedure, action must be taken.

Okay, so nobody really cares about a friggen Moon Base that we blew up in this wiki's second RP you say? Fine. But what about the Battle over Planet Blood? Surprisingly, it lacks an article on this wiki, despite being one of the most important events in the early stages of the conflict; so early that the thread for that RP is on Halo Nation. Who remembers the Mandalorian Militia? Or the hundreds of planets in the galaxy that everyone always sums up as "some place in space"?

This blog is more of a declaration than anything else, as I'm going to begin mass-producing relevant articles on almost everything we've gone over. The process will take me several weeks, but it won't be a burden because I enjoy writing.

Expect to see some new, different, and interesting stuff for 2015.
