And now, to the news!


Over the last couple of months, during the development of the new main page portal, we have been ''secretly'' creating a new system -- completely revamping the current structure, the new portal system looks awesomer than your wildest dreams, and is also pretty, and sexy, and overall badass - in fact it achieves a level of awesomeness usually reserved for Chuck Norris or Teddy Roosevelt.

Made by our very own [[User:Animusradiation]], who's been working with me behind the scenes for the past month to achieve legendary status, I present you...

Redefining the concept of main page links and giving a new meaning to the word "beatiful internet portal accessy thing for wikis", this new portal, artwork by AR and future coding by the awesome creator of the main page portal system [http://dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/User:Tierrie Tierrie] (who by the way have the awesomest and cutest user avatar I've ever seen -- a doglobster *-*), this new portal shall come online in the upcoming months. Though we have no set date for release yet, but all effort (almost all effort) is being poured in and we are working around the clock (no we aren't, we have lives too XD) to make it the perfect fit for the new main page as quickly as possible.


Below me (heh) there are screenshots of the prototypes, each picture corresponds to a panel of the new portal who will slide and click just like our current one. Check it out!
I would also like to make a special mention for our oldest admin and my consigliere, [[User:Master Sima Yi]]. My second in command, his amazing writing skills and throughout knowledge of AC canon helped shape this wiki to what it has become today. Leadership and charisma aren't everything a administration needs to be successful -- it also needs efficiency, dedication and professionalism. And Sima helps to make sure the wiki has all three of them. He is the Spock to my Captain Kirk. He is the Guardian of knowledge of this Compendium of information. And he is a good friend of mine. Thank you, Phil.

In another little bit piece of news, we are now officially working on a partnership with another gaming wikis -- more info on that in the future.


That is all for today. Post your comments below -- me and the staff want to hear your oppinions on the new portal system! Safety and peace, and a good week to all.

The first DLC for Assassin's Creed: Revelations has been announced. Named "The Lost Archive", the downloadable content will feature gameplay sequences similar to Desmond's Journey ones, but focused on Subject 16's life. Unfortunaly, Ubisoft's trend of not including (or at least delaying) PC players also makes a appearance this time. Altough I expect it to be avaiable for PC at a later date, I still find the lack of explanation for excluding the PC version disgusting, without even a mention to the why.


On a cheerful note, this week the wiki has surpassed the TWO THOUSAND main article count! (everyone cheers)
It's amazing to see that little 7-page site I found in 2009 become a 2000 pages encyclopedia, a compendium of information so complete and awesome that even AC developers use for reference. A encylopedia better even than Ubisoft's official one. And all of this build by us -- editors and staff.

To celebrate this, User:Nostalgia AC (our newest Istruttore) have made a special commemorative userbox, which can be seen below along with it's code:

This user has helped the wiki achieve 2000 articles and has earned a slice of the Assassin's Poundcake.

I would also like to make a special mention for our oldest admin and my consigliere, User:Master Sima Yi. My second in command, his amazing writing skills and throughout knowledge of AC canon helped shape this wiki to what it has become today. Leadership and charisma aren't everything a administration needs to be successful -- it also needs efficiency, dedication and professionalism. And Sima helps to make sure the wiki has all three of them. He is the Spock to my Captain Kirk. He is the Guardian of knowledge of this Compendium of information. And he is a good friend of mine.
