== Re: redfactionwiki.com domain ==
Hey.  While copying over the data is not ''entirely'' out of the question, it would be easier to set it up for redfactionwiki.com to point to this server.  I'm not sure if you're knowledgeable of how that would work, but basically you'd have to simply change the nameservers to point here, and the rest would be transparent.  For all intents and purposes, the wiki would be hosted at redfactionwiki.com, but without all the hassle of copying articles/files.
Assuming you were to set the domain up to point to this existing wiki, you'd be given admin rights here.  I do think it would be the easier solution - no need to copy over ~200 articles.
In any event, let me know what you think.  If you'd like to talk off-wiki, I can send you my contact details.

Making the wiki better

You seem to be the primary admin of this wiki. I have talked to the guys over at redfaction.wikia.com and they are on board fot this project. I am setting up redfactionwiki.com, i have already registered the domain, im sure you would appreciate being admin of redfactionwiki.com rather than nebulamods.com/rfwiki/ what i am doing right now is giving the admins from both sites a chance to hop on and become admins as well as bureaucrats just as they were previously on their own sites. Moving pages should be relatively straightforward. I hope that we can collaborate further and make one great Red Faction Wiki rather than have a bunch spread all about the place, if you have database access, we might even be able to copy the entire wiki over. What i am essentially doing here is giving you the redfactionwiki.com domain name. It is always better to have one great project rather than many small ones, that is my theory. Contact me for further correspondence at [mike at teamxrs dot net.nospam.

Re: redfactionwiki.com domain

Hey. While copying over the data is not entirely out of the question, it would be easier to set it up for redfactionwiki.com to point to this server. I'm not sure if you're knowledgeable of how that would work, but basically you'd have to simply change the nameservers to point here, and the rest would be transparent. For all intents and purposes, the wiki would be hosted at redfactionwiki.com, but without all the hassle of copying articles/files.

Assuming you were to set the domain up to point to this existing wiki, you'd be given admin rights here. I do think it would be the easier solution - no need to copy over ~200 articles.

In any event, let me know what you think. If you'd like to talk off-wiki, I can send you my contact details.
