As some of you may know, I took to the Yogscast subreddit to ask what people over there thought about the Wiki and how we could improve it. On the back of that, the guys over at Gamepedia asked me whether we would like to move the Yogscast Wiki over to Gamepedia. After discussing this with the other members of the Admin Team, and contacting the Yogscast about this, we have decided to accept Gamepedia's offer and we shall begin the process of moving over.

Will my rank by transferred?
Yes.

Will my edits be transferred?
Yes. When you log onto Gamepedia for the first time, you will be asked to merge your accounts. This works for people who already have a Curse account or that have one to merge into.

What about Chat?
Gamepedia doesn't have an in-built chat function. However, they have offered to host an IRC for us. Our Chat here is effectively an IRC, so there will not be a lot of difficulty with that.

What about Forums?
Being added to Gamepedia soon.

What about Comments?
As Gamepedia uses MediaWiki, all of the pages have a talk page. These can be linked at the bottom of the page.

How do I add Youtube Videos?
