TMNTPedia - all aboard!
 

Hello people,

we (that means Yung Nine, Tigerfog and me) have started a brand new project called TMNTPedia - http://tmnt.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page.

It's based on the wiki engine, hosted on the Wikia servers - and it was accepted and launched just yesterday. We've got ten articles so far but we're striving for many, many more. We believe that TMNTPedia might turn out to something covering absolutely EVERYTHING TMNT-related: TV shows, movies, comics, single eps, minor characters, artists behind the TMNT, notable fanart, TMNT references in other media etc. etc. Lots of articles to be written.

So, my question is - is anybody interested in participating? Everyone is welcomed, just remember - keep it clean, keep it green!

Sweet. :) This could be really good.

well i added one tiny official factoid to their species box hope ya dont mind
it was made official of their species, that they are red ear sliders

The TMNT are? That makes them terrapins, right?

TMNTpedia sounds like an aweaome idea. Assuming I can work at my own pace, I'll probably contribute.

anybody still doing this project?

Well... we already had gotten that info (back in "Turtles in Space", as "Terrapin" was how the Triceratons refered to them).

Still looking for more people to hop on.

interesting...but where are the red ears?z

And cool concept guys...ima check it out now...

I guess I can help out though i'm sure many know a lot more.

Why not just update Wikipedia's entry? a lot of 'themed' wikis are never as expansive as the ones find on wikipedias own site.

Yea.. In one of the recent issues of Tales of the TMNT Donatello saves this female red eared slider in the sewers and tells her that he used to be one.

In regular wikipedia, editors are always arguing about extraneous articles and information. This has the potential to be much more detailed and use first-person research.

And oh yeah. It's fun. :D

(I don't have time right now tho. :cry: )

Add something about how Mindychan and me are dubbing the TMNT anime. We're almost done to. Were thinking December? The voice actors are lazy and we have no Shredder ><

I want to contribute!
Finally my knowledge will be of use.


....now to write that page about Garbageman....

...lol maybe not.

I'll let you know when I put up something.

Finally a place where the Old Toon Error Repository can go, as well as my plans for pizza refrences in the OT and Pop Culture refrences in both series.

Wonderful! Upload them quick, Jester-san!

Gogogo.

If you had asked me, I would have been happy to host those on The Technodrome.

really? hmm I have a question for you..I'll pm you.

I didn't mean it that way, Krang. Those things are more appropriate for an internet encyclopedia, it'd just clutter a web forum. I wanted to go into it hard and heavy, which may not work so well on a forum. Thanks for the offer.

(Wait....did you mean the Technodrome site or the forum? Either way....when I get it done for one (TMNTpedia or Main 'Drome page), I'd gladly hand it to the other....:P This may take a while.)

no they're turtles.

terrapins are a brackwish water turtle, red ears are fresh water. actually the little turtle in Iris's avatar is the only true terrapin, the Diamondback Terrapin. Gorgeous species they come in many colors.
it was said by Don in a Tales issue they are red ear sliders.

a red ear slider is the world's most common turtle because of humans, they have the red streak behind the eyes

The main difference between terrapins and red sliders is that terrapins are better.

Especially in soup.

Tonight, you dine on *gasp* terrapin soup?

Actually, I meant the main site. I can understand why you wouldn't want to post it on a forum, but it sounds like it would be a good (and appropriate) addition to the site if you're interested in contributing it.

When (more likely "if") it happens, I'll send you a copy as well. I don't see why both the TMNTpedia and the 'Drome can't use them. And heck, I'd welcome the help of anyone here and on that site for help...it's gonna be a monster.

that would be cool if you guys made a section about TMNT fan projects on there also.

Wow, bout time we got a Wikipedia Turtles style.

What the hell, i add some contributions here and there.
