1UP or Wikipedia ?
Websites & Projects, Web Surfing | at 12:25 AM
This evening I started writing an entry for Wikipedia, that will be my first significant contribution to this great site. Actually I will update an entry, a stub, "A stub is an article which is clearly too short, but not so short as to be useless." as defined by Wikipedia itself.
I won't reveal which article is concerned, all I can say is that it's game-related. Anyway, while I was writing I thought that maybe, instead of doing it for Wikipedia, I should publish this article in my own sites. In Wikipedia, authors don't really receive acknowledgement for their work which in a way makes it even more amazing so many people worked selfishlessly to build such a large database of knowledge.
I guess I will publish my article on Wikipedia, but it might also use it, before or after, for one of my sites. I really want this information to be listed on Wikipedia, but I think my effort will be worth publishing on my own sites where it's also fitting.
Earlier today I also worked on project 'C', the big question now is how soon I want to put the site online. It could happen this week end with some sections still under contruction, or I could wait more to have it completed or near completion. I'm not sure, but I'm impatient to have it finished now. Again I think I did well with the design, I spent a long time tweaking the details to achieve a well balanced result. The one thing I'm afraid of is the arrangement of the code, some things need to be changed because even though in some part it still looks like the "exercise" it now has a more ambitious purpose and function. So I must be careful how I'm going to handle all this. If I get it wrong I might spend a lot of time writing correction codes, which is definitely not the way I intend to spend my week end.
And when I'm through with project 'C', I'll have to rush working on project 'M' ! Seriously, there is another project and I'm not talking about my pet project, this one is simple and silly but my ex-girlfriend found it quite entertaining and so did I, at times. I must have it online before the end of the month as well, it's not too much work because for that one I don't really care how much under construction parts there are but I still want it to be finalized.
Today's retro game: Magic Sword (because I'm very much in a Super Nintendo mood)
Today's recent game: Fire Emblem Path of Radiance (finally a GameCube game I'm really excited about and looking forward to buying)
