Wikipedia is da bomb, in case you didn't already know.

That said, is there anyway we could get ourselves added there. Right now "Furious Angels" only brings up the Rob Dougan song.
If all the world's problems were solved today, what would you have left to do tomorrow?

I am totally for this idea.  I thought about it the other day actually while trying to figure out what band someone was in.  I know I used wikipedia to solve one or two of the riddles on the challenge.

I thought about adding us a time or two, but I have no clue how. I don't have an account or anything. I'm sure someone has to know...

Yep, we could arrange this... if enough people endorse it, it should get added, if I remember how things work correctly....

It is open to abuse however, which means we may want to think twice.

Considering we span two continents I don't think we fall under 'loacalized interest', and we probably don't belong to vanity pages, either. This is a how-to for making the page, guidlines included:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Your_first_article



aaaaaand wow, I'm way over my head here with designing this thing. I'll help write the essay and organize topics, but technical work has to go to someone else.

BTW... in order for someone to 'add' to the Wikipedia article (aka put in information/false statements, etc.) they'd have to make their own account, which is somewhat trackable, and it would take some ratification on Wikipedia's part. Also, if that DOES happen, it looks like we can take it up with Wikipedia and have it removed.

Topic Suggestions-

Explanation of who we are, what we do, little explanation of the game and our place in it, date begun, beliefs, RP & PvP, etc. ("Most easily recognized faction.... symbolic white uniforms....

The (until recently) unusual entrance requirements

Participation in Live Events

Articles written about FA and Tbone (cited)

The movies

FA rumors and such

Whoever is taking on this role of creating a wikipedia page for FA let me know because I would like to coordinate with them on adding the FA group picture I made into the page.

Being arguably the oldest faction in the game, I think our history is part of the game's history.  Maybe, at the least, we can tie our page to the MxO page, somehow.
