Wars Wiki:Indie Wiki Jam

The Indie Wiki Jam is an event hosted by Square Enix Independent Wiki Alliance (SEIWA) and Indie Wiki Federation (IWF), held to encourage the use of independent wiki sites.

The purpose of the event is to promote co-operation by inviting editors to contribute to wikis they haven't edited before. The 2025 Indie Wiki Jam will take place from Friday, 10 January, to Friday, 24 January.

Consoles! We need a lot of expansion on the consoles that games are available on: Family Computer, Super Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo DS.
- Services like Mobile System GB, Satellaview, Nintendo Power (cartridge writing service), and the Virtual Console also need expansion.
- Pages for the Game Boy (Game Boy Wars), Game Boy Color (Game Boy Wars 2 and 3), GameCube (Battalion Wars), Wii (Battalion Wars 2), and Nintendo Switch (Advance Wars 1+2) need created.
Expansion of the various companies' pages, such as developers Hudson Soft or WayForward Technologies. The Nintendo page could use some love too.

Advance Wars series[edit source]

Advance Wars[edit source]

Create pages for the Advanced Campaign game mode.
Add page navigation templates to all missions.
More quotes for more stages!

Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising[edit source]

Create pages for the Hard Campaign.
Rewrite sections of List of Missions in Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising to use fewer footnotes.

Game Boy Wars Advance 1+2[edit source]

More information about the release as a whole, but documenting changes from the first two games in particular.

Advance Wars: Dual Strike[edit source]

Ensure Damage/Advance Wars: Dual Strike chart is up to date with all the right numbers.
Most missions for the campaign need written, and the few existing ones should be updated where possible.

Advance Wars: Days of Ruin[edit source]

Many of the latter missions in List of Missions in Advance Wars: Days of Ruin need completed, and the Trial Maps are missing virtually all crucial information.
Better explain changes between this release and prior titles.

Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp[edit source]

The game has been released. Ensuring that all major changes have been documented both on the main game page and respective levels is critical.
More screenshots of gameplay.
Update character appearances and personality tweaks.
Further documentations of the new modes, like the custom map builder.
The description of the game itself could be improved some.

64 Wars[edit source]

Is there any more information about 64 Wars to add?
- Consider investigating JayTheHam's coverage on the subject.

Battalion Wars series[edit source]

Battalion Wars[edit source]

Many of the Battalion Wars units pages need expansion and images.
Many of the missions of the Battalion Wars Campaign could use screenshots of the game.

Battalion Wars 2[edit source]

This game needs to be better split from Battalion Wars 1, especially when it comes to categorization and linking. Some Category pages may need to be made.
More screenshots for the missions.

Knight Wars[edit source]

Good coverage, but more images could not hurt.

Famicom Wars series[edit source]

Famicom Wars[edit source]

This game has virtually no pages of its own, and should at least contain all of the maps in one place, and more detailed descriptions of the mechanics and formula for gameplay.

Super Famicom Wars[edit source]

Less content needs to be compared to Fire Emblem and rather to the original game.
Super Famicom Wars BS Han needs more information overall--this may even warrant its own page.
Nintendo Power (cartridge writing service) is a unique page that seems to not be otherwise well-documented. It may be useful to flesh it out more.
Level pages should be made.

Game Boy Wars Series[edit source]
