Heads up, Marines!
This is a basic to-do list for the Official MENACE Wiki. As of 2025-09-28 it's very bare bones, but we'll get back to it as time passes, more people play the demo, and we get a better idea of how best to organize information in a way most readable for the fans. Who's "we?"
Joljaycups and Keno work on script modules and tempaltes the Wiki. Of course, this is part of the Hooded Horse wiki universe, and their staff maintain its hosting and do the really behind-the-scenes technical stuff. If you're a new member looking to contribute, your first point of contact will likely be Gunlord! He doesn't know as much about the technical side of things, so he does the grunt work of data input, typing up lore, descriptions, etc., and also patrolling the Wiki, monitoring edits, and dropping the banhammer on trolls, spambots, and other riffraff. If you have any questions, or even just to say hello and introduce yourself, drop a note on his talk page or feel free to send him a message @Gunlord on the Overhype discord!
Current things to do (Demo release)
1: Continue experimenting with modules and templates to see what works best
2: possibly working on an easy way to extract data from the game files directly so any updates can be reflected right on the Wiki easily, and of course inputting all the data, descriptions, etc. of Weapons, Armor, Vehicles, and Accessories as much as possible.
3: We might also want to do the same for Characters and their Perk Trees, though since those are so subject to change we might also want to hold off on that.
In general: Keno and Jay will likely handle the technical stuff while Gunlord will do the grunt work, but as new people come in any assistance on either of those ends would be appreciated!
Things to do once EA starts
1: Hopefully finalize an efficent way of data extraction right to the Wiki from the game.
2: Hopefully finalize any cool styles or art to make the wiki look nicer as well as modules, etc. for use on it
3: Fill in data for new weapons, vehicles, armor, accessories, characters, and skills as EA progresses
4: Fill out more data for the strategic layer (planets, factions, etc)
Things to do once v.1.0 hits
1: Continue refining modules, templates, styles and art, etc. as necessary
2: Continue to add in all new characters, weapons, vehicles, armors, accessories, etc.
3: Add in information about game progress as well as the MENACE itself!
