New wiki name

[Nanaha]

Argueably Nanapedia isn't the greatest name for a pso2 wiki. Rather most people probably don't see the pso2 cameo from Nanana's Buried Treasure reference so it's a moot point.

Besides something like pso2wiki, anyone got any bright ideas for a new wiki name?

[vantpers]

Hunterpedia is a good name.

[Totori]

Arks Database
Visiphone
Oraclepedia

Something PSO2ish lol

[Qualia]

Lilipedia with a lilipan mascot :^)

[PokeminMaster]

I'm gonna go with Totori's suggestion, Arks Database, as the best option

[Cyber Meteor]

Yeah Arks database seems a really good option imo, i was going to suggest ARKS Data, but got kinda ninja'ed by Totori^^;

[Petunia]

Didn't I suggest ARKS Database a while ago?
I still think that's a good idea.
Xion's Log, Oraclepedia or Photoners Database are also name ideas that could work.

[Sp-24]

Stonepedia.

Proposed logo:

[spoiler-box]『石』
[/spoiler-box]

[SilkaN]

Just keep the name.
Those who don't know Nanana probably don't know Cirno.
Both are pretty obscure to most and I don't see a reason to change it.

[rxzlion]

The problem with ARKS Database is that it will clash with ARK: Survival

[yoshiblue]

Liliparium Cafe

[Shinamori]

Just keep the name.
Those who don't know Nanana probably don't know Cirno.
Both are pretty obscure to most and I don't see a reason to change it.

I think more people knows Cirno than Nanana.

[Qualia]

Stonepedia.

Took me a while but omg yes

[Shoterxx]

The Oracle Fleet Athenaeum (OFA).

Please, no more -pedias nor databases.

[Cyber Meteor]

I got some other ideas (since it was suggested ARKS database could conflict with another game) :
Photonverse
Photoner Database
ARKS Rappy (or ARKS Lillipan)
Dark Falz Den

More would be too much
Also i personally prefer the 2nd and 3rd idea

[rxzlion]

The Oracle Fleet Athenaeum (OFA).

Please, no more -pedias or databases.

When people search they use the terms database, wiki, pedia etc.

[Kondibon]

I know it was someon else's idea but I still really like The ARKive.


Lilipedia with a lilipan mascot :^)This one made me laugh, I like it.


Just keep the name.
Those who don't know Nanana probably don't know Cirno.
Both are pretty obscure to most and I don't see a reason to change it.Implying Cirnopedia was a good name for a PSO2 database in the first place.

[Shoterxx]

When people search they use the terms database, wiki, pedia etc.

Yet when you're searching for Phantasy Star related info, where does "Cirnopedia" fit really? Google also searches for page content, you know?

[Ryziou]

I like



Visiphone

[redroses]

I know it was someon else's idea but I still really like The ARKive.


The Arkive pso2 site still exists, even though it is in a state of hiatus (probably forever). Either way, using a name that already exists for a different pso2 database isn't very good.


Anyway, call it Franka's Cafe.

[rxzlion]

Yet when you're searching for Phantasy Star related info, where does "Cirnopedia" fit really? Google also searches for page content, you know?

The Cirno doesn't fit.
The pedia part does it's like using wiki in the name.
And yes I'm aware to how the search algorithm works.

[jooozek]

anything that doesn't sound like weeaboopedia :wacko:

[Kondibon]

Honestly as long as it's something short, to the point, and actually related to PSO2 I don't really care.

If we're gonna name it after a character though Patty is a good start.

EDIT: Patteapedia?


anything that doesn't sound like weeaboopedia :wacko:
So nothing PSO2 related. Got it.

[Shoterxx]

The pedia part does it's like using wiki in the name.

Precisely, which has been used and abused.
When people search for information, they search by content, not title (unless they know where they want to go exactly). The title needs to be something that fits the theme, and, while at it, something that identifies it in a distiguishable manner (a.k.a. not "yet another").

Which brings me to my point, can't we come up with something else for once? I swear, everytime I see -pedia, it makes me cringe.

We can that's the point of the topic.
And to everyone visiphone is already taken so no go there.

[Kondibon]

Which brings me to my point, can't we come up with something else for once? I swear, everytime I see -pedia, it makes me cringe.It's simple and to the point. People see -pedia or wik- on a site and instantly know what its for. I kinda understand where you're coming from, but trying to come up with something wildly different for the sake of being different is silly, especially since your suggestion made less sense than pretty much everything else here. :/

EDIT: I guess what I should be saying is, if you told someone the name without any context would they be able to figure out roughly, what it's for. That's the important part to me, it's not just about being able to find the site, it's about being able understand "This is a site that has information that can be edited by anyone", if you just searched blindly for PSO2 wiki or whatever.

"Visiphone" would probably be the most accurate and the most original one out of the bunch. Too many -pedias / database / Wikis.

Edit: "ARKS Visiphone" is my solid vote.

[vantpers]

Hunter deserves at least a wiki name.

[rxzlion]

"Visiphone" would probably be the most accurate and the most original one out of the bunch. Too many -pedias / database / Wikis.

Edit: "ARKS Visiphone" is my solid vote.

This one is perfect since Visiphone is taken it's even better.

[Flaoc]

will have to go with arkspedia

The Oracle Fleet Athenaeum


Oracle Fleet: The Oracle, a fleet of ships that travel to many planets throughout the entire galaxy.

Athenaeum: ‎(plural athenaeums)

1- An association for the advancement of learning, particularly in the fields of science or literature.
2- A building for storing books or newspapers; a library, reading room etc.

[Zanverse]

This one is perfect since Visiphone is taken it's even better.

Wait, it's taken already?

[rxzlion]

Wait, it's taken already?
Visiphone is taken someone got the .net and .com probably thinks he can sell them back to sega or something.
But ARKS visiphone is free.

What about Naberius Library or Rappy Library?

Sure you can abbreviate it but then you just have people not understanding the abbreviation. Like, what is your ACTUAL problem with "pedia" or "database" or "wiki", other than them being used often? Or are you just one of those people who thinks using obscure latin words makes something better?


Personal opinion, it should just be "PSO2JP English Wiki."This thread is literally nothing but personal opinions so...

But yeah, I actually agree.

Cmon guys lilipans basically represent pso2 as a whole. #Lilipedia

"Nananapedia?" Damn it!
"Nanananananananananananananananapedia?" BATMAN!

[Shoterxx]

Athenaeum is actualy english, you know?
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/athenaeum

Whatever, I just hope it doesn't end up like yet another PSO2 data compilation.

[CocoCrispy]

I don't see how pedia is cringeworthy at all if it's a standard English language suffix which means learning.

As for opinions, I'm in the arks database boat or something photons. :u

Everyone should be able to find it via google search, so no excuses.

Ok were talking domain name here that's way to long.

And just to point out:
pso2pedia.com is taken
pso2pedia.net is taken
pso2wiki.com is taken
pso2wiki.net is taken

[MooingRed]

I think that it's important that it could be mentioned in one word like Bumped, Cirno, or Swiki. With Arks Database or PSO2 Wiki, what would you shorten it as?

[TeeHunter13]

I like Nanapedia.

pso2wiki.com is taken

Various forms of sticking "en" (for English) somewhere in there seem to be available.

[Evangelion X.XX]

Or why not EWiki or ENwiki as in English Wiki.

Edit:

I believe simplicity is best; no need to be "cool", "extravagant" or anything, just simple and direct.

[rxzlion]

Or why not EWiki or ENwiki as in English Wiki.

here's why.
pso2enwiki.com
pso2ewiki.com

It's a domain name it will always be in small caps thus making it look awful and to long.

And to the point like been said google search for content to and you can add keywords to the domain so even if i use Arks database it will still show up when you search pso2 wiki or pso2 English wiki

[Evangelion X.XX]

then what do you suggest?

[aloola]

rappypanchi
rappypunch

[Anduril]

here's why.
pso2enwiki.com
pso2ewiki.com

it's a domain name it will always be in small caps thus making it look awful and to long.
I don't see how that is any different from the Japanese wiki being pso2.swiki.jp, and it is much shorter than pso2.cirnopedia.info.

[rxzlion]

I don't see how that is any different from the Japanese wiki being pso2.swiki.jp, and it is much shorter than pso2.cirnopedia.info.

The domain name here is swiki.jp if you didn't know swiki.jp host other wikis.
Pso2 here is just a sub domain.
If you own the domain you can even do pso2.facebook.com.


then what do you suggest?

I have no idea.

[Anduril]

The domain name here is swiki.jp if you didn't know swiki.jp host other wikis.
Pso2 here is just a sub domain.
If you own the domain you can even do pso2.facebook.com.
I mean in terms of why it looks awful, or is too long. If the long string of text bothers you, perhaps something like pso2en-wiki.com would be less of a problem since it breaks it up a bit?

[rxzlion]

That works.
But personally I hate long domain names like that.
But where's the creativeness!

[Evangelion X.XX]

Well, then.

How does everyone on this forum feel about something like

pso2en-wiki

or its variation?

[Kondibon]

That works.
But personally I hate long domain names like that.
But hi if it works it works.It's not THAT long is it? ._.


Well, then.

How does everyone on this forum feel about something like

I think it's fine.

[XrosBlader821]

Just keep the name.
Those who don't know Nanana probably don't know Cirno.

Weird assumption. I didn't know what Nanapedia was until stumbling upon this thread while I've been using Cirno pretty much since starting playing this game back in Episode 2.

I think he meant cirno from touhou and nana form nanana's buried treasure.

people might know cirno from this iosys pv

[Kondibon]

I think the important thing isn't how many people know who Cirno is, but the fact that she has nothing to do with PSO2...

[Selphea]

I think that it's important that it could be mentioned in one word like Bumped, Cirno, or Swiki. With Arks Database or PSO2 Wiki, what would you shorten it as?

Don't worry people will find a way :wacko: like ArksDB or something.

PSO2 JP Wiki or PSO2 JP Database can be in the tagline, no need to cram it into the name.

Anyway I'm going to put down my thought process here. Lemme start with a list of things that can be used as a hook.


PSO2 (obvious but likely expensive)
ARKs (conflicts with ARK the survival game)
Visiphone
Matterboard
Rappy, because cute
Lilipan, also because cute
Itsuki's Report
Seiga Academy
Patty & Tea, because information sisters
Luther
Omniscience
Photons™
Photoners
Xion
Zieg's Armory or something like that
Xiao
Oracle
Franka's Cafe


The single terms would need to be combined with a second idea to form something name-like, like Rappypedia, Luther's Omniscience, Xiao's idkwhat etc

I'm personally liking Seiga Academy though. Easy to remember, not pretentious, 100% linked to PSO2, will likely be shortened to Seiga which doesn't conflict with anything and you can register http://seiga.academy

#2 for me would be Lilipedia / Rappypedia / Nyaupedia because cute.

Ideally I'd prefer not to have any non-alphabets in the URL, so that it's typable from a phone, and I'd prefer no acronyms in the URL, to make it easy to remember.

[jooozek]

I think the important thing isn't how many people know who Cirno is, but the fact that she has nothing to do with PSO2...

that's why i said earlier anything that doesn't sound like weeaboopedia :wacko:

[Ryziou]

All three have a ring to it while most of the suggestions are too long and are just awkward.

But the problem with Nanapedia is remembering how many "na"s to use.
"Napedia?" Not enough.
"Nananapedia?" Damn it!
"Nanananananananananananananananapedia?" BATMAN!

True but unless they're really that dumb to actually do that then I don't want to know how they even got onto a PC and actually installed PSO2.

Whenever I wanted to go to Cirno, I'd type "pso2 cirno", Nanapedia is probably even better due to that fact that you can just type "pso2 nana". It's easier since it uses the same two words twice and it's not some "hard to use" english word like Athenaeum.

Now, I'm not saying it's hard for me but if I was going to roleplay and act like some dumb westerner, Athenaeum wouldn't really be in my vocabulary.

This post is right on the spot.

I just like to mention that Visiphone.com and Visiphone.net are taken.

[Anduril]

I amend my suggestion to Matterboard. It's PSO2 related, and it involves the collection of information and items. Sure we don't have them with Ep4, but it seems apt.
