Might want to hold off on the cut and paste moving on the Wikipedia articles. If you really want to you can keep at it, but a great many of these articles are going to be transwikied over anyways using copies that contain most if not all of the original edit history from Wikipedia. This includes the recently deleted articles, so those are still preserved as well. Just seems faster this way. If you have any questions the quickest way to contact me is at Wikipedia:User talk:Ned Scott.

You might also want to check out Wikipedia:WP:GUNDAM, where a group of editors are trying to organize efforts for Gundam articles that are still on Wikipedia. I hope to be able to organize a relationship between gundam.wikia.com and WP:GUNDAM so that the two projects can compliment each other.

Some of the editors on Wikipedia seem a bit reluctant to jump in on the idea, but I think once it starts people will see it as a very good thing. The basic idea is that minor articles live here, and main articles that are also hosted on Wikipedia get updated by bot to a copy on Wikia, so that Wikia always has a complete copy. That's just one of the ideas, though. In any case, many of us hope to at least copy all of the Gundam articles over to Wikia at least once. -- Ned Scott 02:59, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
