Just curious on what's going on with it. I only found out about it recently and started adding some stuff, found it quite a nice alternative to store rankings and other IC history.
Is anyone else still using it? Is there any admin still moderating it? I noticed that the 5 newest articles are all spam -> http://www.ic-wiki.com/wiki/Main_Page

Primo is good in bed.
Oh yes.
mind I find things like this when I'm checking players wikis? Players should be the ones writing their own history there.
But still is not clear whats the real purpose of a IC-Wiki, I have mine very complete, but not sure whats the use of it
It's still used I think. It seems to go through waves of varying activity and interest.
I'm still actively taking care of it, but yeah the spam is a big problem. There are a few measures in place to combat it, but the spambots still seem to get through sometimes.
One of my big goals is to integrate IC user's accounts into the wiki. So logged-in users can all edit things as they wish, but anonymous users (and spambots) would have to have their edits/changes reviewed. I plan to give review capabilities to any logged in user. Not only should this fight the spam but it will mean IC players can use the wiki and have their changes attributed to them, without having to actually log in.
It's a nice plan I think, but it's just a matter of prioritizing it with some other things I'm working on.
As far as the purpose, it's analogous to wikipedia. Anybody/everybody should feel free to write anything/everything. For example, if that "Primo" page is deemed unfit or too silly/meaningless, anybody should feel free to edit it to include information about his known in-game information, his modship, or anything really. The idea is that we're all free to add as much information about everything as we'd like. So it's a communal information repository about things as significant as the depature of MasterMike to things as small as a particular player's real name.
That's a great idea, that way the link with IC would be much more direct, and people might actually start posting stuff. Now I feel like it's too disconnected from IC for people to actually care about it. I already tried to push some people to make a page about themselves, but they just don't get why they should do it. Even most of the mods don't have a page there, I made one for Arby yesterday myself 
.
A big part of IC is the history it has. 99% of the players now are people who have been playing for many years. So it would be great to have some way to view previous rounds and their rankings + player profiles. IC-wiki is great for that but it needs to be more integrated as you said. Either that, or fix the in game history. (which used to work fine years ago, don't know how it became like it is now oO)

Re: ~~ PW Round 70 EOR Awards ~~
dyslexics gained 3 planets too ? wtf
*** old
1 Gundam (6348) [7,39] 2474
2 Teh Dyslexics Rebown (6346) [63,54] 2459
new
1 Teh Dyslexics Rebown (6346) [63,54] 2462
2 Gundam (6348) [7,39] 2383
When round got shut down Dyslexics were ranked first.
The reason why you lost planets is most likely a player got removed for cheating of any kind. So any argument stating that Gundam, who raped and farmed little families btw, won the round is invalid since when the round got officially shut down Dyslexics were ranked first. Pity.. Maybe you should have pushed the mods to reopen round sooner, that'd have helped.

blatant lie, bad loser, we won that round with no discussion, mods reseted PW 2 days after, but when the round ended we were 1st in size. Now staying logged just to do some attacks and make up the result is for losers, and if we lost planets thats because some stupid asshole kept attacking us after the round was ended.
a player removed for cheating?? get your facts right, thats very offensive, any clue to show? then STFU
Ranks get final when round gets entirely closed, as you are perfectly aware of.
Also, I said 'most likely' which kinda indicates I wasn't certain.
How can you keep attacking when a round is already closed? :S

that feature was added by mods just after PW70, that round was actually the last one not automatically closed at EoR.
PW70 was not closed at 17h gmt, it stayed open for some people do dirty things.
You can make a poll, ask all PW players or ask mods about this, because I am 100% sure Gundam won that round, and you're only disgraceful bad losers.
All right, each his opinion.
