Sonic News Network:About
The Sonic News Network is a wiki project that strives to provide a comprehensive repository on information related to the Sonic the Hedgehog series published by Sega. The wiki format allows for anyone to create or edit the wiki, so we can all work collaboratively to make the Sonic News Network the ultimate source of Sonic the Hedgehog information. The Sonic News Network also presents users with multiple outlets to share their thoughts and creations. With dedicated forums, blogs, and a discord server, there are endless opportunities to enjoy the Sonic franchise with fellow fans.
Purpose
As stated above, the purpose of Sonic News Network is to provide a comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date database on the Sonic the Hedgehog series. This is in service to the Sonic community and the public at large. This repository of information covers all officially licensed Sonic content and the characters, worlds, and stories that are within them. The wiki also documents the people, companies, and organizations that have created official Sonic content. The information the wiki documents is based on factual information from the content itself and/or reliable sources. Within the wiki, there are also high quality images, videos, and audio files that document the Sonic franchise. The users of Sonic News Network work tirelessly to make comprehensive articles in order for everyone to have easy access to any information regarding the Sonic the Hedgehog series.
Beyond the wiki proper, there are other aspects of Sonic News Network that work to also achieve our main goal:
Discussion board
The discussion board is used for a variety of different things: Here, users can coordinate in order to achieve editing goals and discuss wiki issues, such as policy, style, design, and coding, as well as participate in user rights nominations. Users also share news relating to the Sonic series; sharing their reactions, thoughts, and discussing it with others. In addition, users also share their thoughts and opinions on different topics in the Sonic series. This casual discussion is also done with polls and forum games. To visit our discussion board, go to Special:Forum.
Blogs
Blogs are used for users to give personal updates, share fan made creations, discuss the video gaming industry, and to share discussion board topics if a user wants to utilize the wiki’s layout. Here, users can update everyone on their availability and/or speak their mind openly on wiki issues. They can also share fanart, fan fiction, fan games and projects, sprite comics, and other Sonic-related creations made by them (or they contributed to). Currently, Fandom is not considering integrating MediaWiki support into Discussions, so users can structure their posts better and link to wiki articles with a blog post. To see all recent blog posts, go to Blog:Recent posts
Discord
The Sonic News Network discord server allows editors and Sonic fans to instantly communicate with each other. If an editor needs to contact another editor, or wiki admins, in an urgent matter, the discord server is a great and safe way to do this. The main focus, however, is to socialize with other editors and fans. This is done with a variety of channels to discuss topics and share links and images.
The discord server was created by DeCool99 and is administered by DeCool99, SilverPlays97, and Veralann, and moderated by Ainlid, BayuSumardi, Josiahblaze, Skooa, TheEonAtrocious, and Virgen.
