:Yeah, I understand it can be confusing, but it's been done for SEO purposes. Since a lot of people are currently searching for "Torment Wiki" in Google, and would go to the Wikia wiki, which has barely any info on Tides of Numenera, if I hadn't changed the name. But I guess we need to at least make it consistent. And it's a bit complicated because, while we have official status for Torment, we don't have one for Numenera itself yet (I tried to contatc Monte Cook, but got no reply).

I'd have a read through the [http://www.numenera.com/fan-use-policy Fan Use Policy] since it goes fairly in-depth with what we can and can't reproduce, by the looks of it we can at most add the game terms and up to half a page of content on each, without providing full, playable context.

Revision as of 15:26, 4 April 2014
About the scope of this wiki
I wondered why you chose to change the name of this wiki from "Numenera Wiki" to "Official Torment Wiki". Wouldn't it be more logical that the scope of this wiki was the whole Numenera setting, including the Torment game ?
Also, right now, while the page header reads "Official Torment Wiki", the title still says "Numenera Wiki", and the main page states that it is "a user-created database on the Numenera world created by Monte Cook and the upcoming Torment: Tides of Numenera video game by inXile Entertainment." This can obviously lead to some confusion for the readers.
Besides, there is already a Torment Wiki on Wikia, covering both Tides of Numenera and Planescape: Torment.
As a consequence, I think this wiki should be given its old name back : Numenera Wiki.

Content Rules
What are the guidelines about adding content from the core book, etc? At the moment it seems only a minimal amount of stuff has made it here and I'd be happy to work on remedying that. HappyEvilSlosh (talk) 02:49, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
