Reznas Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Yes, it is completely okay as long as the wiki page follows BZP's Guidelines.-Rez Edited July 27, 2012 by .:Reznas:. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Kurahk Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 In the past, it has been forbidden to link to sites on which users can post messages that are not moderated by BZPower Staff. Wikis seem to fit that description since "Talk" pages on wikis allow users to leave messages, and these messages are not moderated by BZPower staff or known to be moderated closely by BZPower members or the like (which is why BS01 and TNW are allowed).So, my gut says no, but I'll leave it to staff to confirm this.-SK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axilus Prime Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Wiki sites are linked to frequently on BZP, and I'm sure I've seen a staff member do it. (And I mean Wikia and Wikipedia, not the BZP-owned ones.)I haven't seen any rule against it, so..yeah.Unless the wiki is somehow a forum as well, in which case you're scrapped.

Black Six Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 If the wiki has forums (as many seem to do these days) then you cannot link to it. Wikipedia is definitely okay though, as long as the page you're linking to is appropriate.Thread closed. Bio of a BZP Admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
