This part of the FAQ deals with the financial questions we get asked.

What is the reason of the adds?[edit source]

You will get adds on the top only if you don't log on to the wiki. If you create an userid or/and log on to the wiki, you will not see these adds anymore. These adds are part of the mandatory rules to get this wiki on line and running and most of all, free. Plus, you have to register/log on if you want to contribute. So…

Why not just go on Wikia and be done with it?[edit source]

  • Firstly, there's already one big Stargate Wiki on Wikia but we don't agree about the content as the Wikia wiki is mixing canon and non-canon material. Regarding the size of this wiki, it will overwelm this one.
  • Secondly, Wikia has forced people to adopt the ocean skin, and has a lot of adds (even if you are logged) and non-wanted material (last activities, last pictures among others). Only 2/3 of the writing size (already small) is available for the wiki which is unsufficiant.
  • Thirdly, here we can modulate and configure the wiki in the way we want. Almost everything is under control and can be configured and improved.
