Just acknowledging the fact that TCRF reached its 9000th article today. Pretty nice achievement.

Here's to the next 1000+ articles!

I can tell you that is not an easy achievement to do. As someone who's been working their ass off on the wiki for way too long, it's nice to have one place that documents every piece of unused content known.

If you want to contribute for some reason, I wrote up as to where we are at right now. There's a lot more to go. But hey, shouldn't be too hard to reach 10,000 articles.

Trust me, you'd be surprised how much is missing.

Getting content fully documented is a tricky deal. You could probably expand this but I think you generally have 2 requirements to get good documentation:

1. People need to have played a game and know what is used inside the game
2. People need to be willing to open up a game and sift through the files to find something unused

On point 1, that is just dependent on the game's popularity. Point 2 is a much heavier requirement to fulfill because not lot of people know what the proper tools are to open up games and examine data. Of course, that totally varies with the game itself and the system it was on. Going further, sometimes it is necessary to program your own tools to be able to open data in a game. On top of that, even if you have all the tools you could want in easy reach, some people might not care to brute force search through data.

It certainly explains why "insert Nintendo franchise here" games are so well documented but why games on old computer platforms have little documentation. IDK. I think it's interesting to think about. Maybe I'm weird .

I'll at least take a look at what's missing on articles in that thread you mention. I don't have the time I used to have to hack into the games I've actually played. At any rate, I'm sure we'll break the 10,000 article barrier soon enough.

I think the 9001th article should be for a dragon ball z game.

A bit late for that. We're already close to 9,100 articles (9,094 to be specific). The Budokai games need to be worked on for the wiki, though do some digging around with a hex editor that can read Shift-JIS text. I can't remember what the 9,001th article was, but it sure wasn't a DBZ game. At the very least, we now have Ridge Racer on the wiki . That only took around 7 years to get to. =\/

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
