    I believe the guide is fully re-written and now needs testing.

    I shall proceed with testing, then I will format it for BGwiki and add it to BGwiki. If BGwiki deletes it, I have a backup on my PC as well as I will have this as a backup.

    Edit: I guess I can post to XIclopedia as well.

    I still need to test/proof the guide though.
    Why would I or anyone else delete it off BG?

    Also no reason to upload it to Clopedia. Site has aged poorly and it is neglected at this point.

    A little bit of your bias just might be showing through here. They still post news updates on twitter and have pages on current content.

    More information in more places is always a good thing.

    You do know it's basically just one guy doing almost all the work, right? It isn't a matter of bias.

    I was involved with it for a long time. And honestly it doesn't take that many people to keep a wiki on a game recieving as little new content as this one is reasonably up to date, particularly when you're focusing more on the general info and not the technical details, which has always been a distinction between the two.

    Also telling people not to post there only ensures that it's only "one guy" doing the work, which you have a vested interest in. I refer to BG all the time, don't get me wrong. But particularly for older stuff I find that XIclopedia has better coverage, and they also don't bias the reader against checking out any particular content... AHEM. It's true what I said about XI being more open, since i had to fight with you to make one page just slightly less biased (which it still is, just not egrigiously so)

    Just let people decide for themselves. They're obviously going to post to BG anyway, no sense discouraging them from posting it to every info site under the sun, no matter how obscure.
