y'know throw a bit of habbox community history in, oli's spats, narissa rigged it, hxss year by year.

at the moment i find it incredibly boring + stiff.

I will definitely be looking into getting a lot of information about Habbox such as departments, HxSS, events, comps, etc etc. Ill post an update when Its been added.

Totes agree, it's not necessary as long as content staff have a basic understanding of how it all works (which I assume they all do) and since we can all do edits ourselves it simply wouldn't be necessary

Yeah think this will probably come about now that users can add pages but before I saw that being made possible I was going to comment on the absolute lack of community information as without any of that I don't believe most of our own members would be much tempted to use the site, which obviously would represent a massive decrease in overall usage

A few minor criticisms:

On the main page: "Habbox started out as a small project for Mizki but she soon started to realize". Realize should be "realise", it's a UK site primarily, and back then she was British as well as focusing on the UK Habbo.

In the section underneath: "help bring the most, accurate and best Habbo guides around!" should be re-written to be more like:

"Help bring the most accurate, largest collection of Habbo guides around!" Most on its own doesn't make sense, so to seperate it with a comma doesn't work right - this suggestion keeps it flowing nicely.

Also, is HabboWiki taken? HabboxWiki comes off as a Wiki about Habbox :P It's a shame Wikis weren't around when Habbo was at its prime, this just seem like it might be a bit too late, as nice as it is.

EDIT:

Also, never limit the edit permissions to just Habbox Staff. Wiki sites like this are only ever popular if everyone can edit (if they have an account) and get involved.

I do believe we also own the HabboWiki.com domain. We need to get that setup to redirect to the actual wiki. (Hope I got that correct)

Also anyone can edit if they have an account, it just needs to be approved by the content staff before its shown public.

There was a thread a while ago in the Content forum (and then the Managers' forum too I think) regarding this - afaik Habbox does own habbowiki.com and it's going to be set up so that habbowiki.com redirects to habboxwiki.com

I'm pretty sure Jin said we do, I'll ask him to set it up next time he is on!

Everyone can edit pages now, provided they have an account, but the changes have to be approved before they go live :).
