“History.”

I’ve removed yuri’s (Ienpw’s) “history of Blognomic” page from the front page of the wiki. Why? Because it is useless to gameplay, contains little to no information which is in any way useful, and because the “information” in it is trivial—the time the author of the page had a name change, an age old minor controversy, minor trivia pieces that never come up, and links to things that are already on the main wiki page. Also, it kinda pisses me off that someone would consider it necessary, especially with the whole “moving the dynastic histories” thing back when you first tried it. Sorry, but no. If you can find some valid reason for it to exist, then post it here and put the page back up.

In an unrelated note, if anyone wants to make the actually useful wiki page for the bloodline board so that it would actually be a wiki document, that would be good.

The dynastic histories were actually moved by another player, presumably under the impression that there was a consensus for writing up a general “History of BlogNomic”.

But yes, it looks like this page isn’t really going anywhere, and I can’t think of anything I’d want to add to it that couldn’t just be on one of the individual Dynastic History pages. Better not to confuse new players by putting it on the front page with such an authoritative title.

If it’s hated that much, then fine.
