As the stars shine above the sky of Earth, more news come to the ACWiki...
The first DLC for [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]] has been announced. Named [[The Lost Archive|"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.




'''To the news!'''
On a cheerful note, this week the wiki has surpassed the TWO THOUSAND main article count! <small>(everyone cheers)</small><br />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:

As one of the most succesful gaming wikis out there and a great source of feedback in the past, we are continuing our tradition of being the testbed to new Wikia features -- the difference this time (unlike with the "no red links" and "other wikis userpage icons" and others in the past) is that we got a heads up XD
<br />
<nowiki>{{Template:UserPoundcake}}</nowiki>


A new feature is coming live next week that will be a major change in the way talkpages are handled. The '''Message Wall"''', as it is called, will remove the need to enter edit mode whenever leaving someone a message and will make it easier for us to find and create new topics. We'll be able to follow specific conversations instead of entire pages, we won't have to worry about archiving anymore, and new users will "get it" immediately -- no more having to explain how to sign things, or how to reply in a way that sends a notification. It's like the commentary system, but more elaborate and organized.


The test will probably go live next week. When this happens, our existing user talk pages will be archived and protected, so everything will be avaiable and nothing will be deleted ^^ Very few wikis are part of this project, and Wikia Staff will keep a close eye here to make sure the system is to everyone's liking. This feature will eventually go live to all wikis, so this is a great opportunity to help shape the way Message Wall looks and works (so bitch about it while we are testing it -- once it's live, we're stuck with it).


As said two times already, it will probably go live next week -- so hold your comments until it actually go live XD (no complaining about this feature based on past ones, especially since we havent tested it yet ¬¬)
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.

Also, I like to announce the return of [[User:War Clown]]. Once a admin here, he went into a personal leave of absence and is now back to staff, altough as a Istruttore -- if everything goes alright, he might regain his rank in the following months. So send a hi to him on the comments below ^^


Aaand this is all for now, brothers and sisters. Stay tuned for more AC news and sound off on the comments below. =]


And the final bit of news: [[ACR|Revelations]] has been (officially) delayed for PC. We all had expected it since all previous AC games have been delayed, but now we got confirmation. Only good side of this history is that instead of bloody february, we will get it in December 2nd =P
Safety and peace, folks.

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.
