You could ask for permission in the relevant discussion page - either of the entry, or of the user (if he has registered).

Speaking of which, while registering is absolutely not required to use the Wiki, it does help giving the proper credit to the original creators of the entries - and if someone uses your characters, other users can then tell you all about it... ;-)

Jürgen,
What about adding a links section to the site as well?

That would be a good way to get around issues like blackjack's and there are also some great NPC's on wiredreflexes.

Ideally most of the NPC's would be located on the wiki .... but there are some other sites with mass NPC's that should not go to waste.

I have several I can post from my games, but a few I'm not entirely certain fit into the categories. So, where should a troll armorer or elderly swordsman (personality more or less stolen from Pai Mei in Kill Bill 2) go in, or should I add a heading for other contacts? Or just list them under race?

Well, you could simply have added a new category to the main page, but since you didn't, I did. ;)

If you want to add individual links for specific NPCs to the index pages, then that's fine, too - take a look at the formatting for the main page (especially the "Wikipedia" links near the bottom) to see how off-site links need to be formatted.

Don't just list them under race - ideally, all characters should be listed on both index pages.

I guess the best way would probably be to add new categories - I never meant the existing categories to be all-inclusive. If you have any good ideas for category names, just enter them.

It's going nicely so far - we have 11 NPCs up already.

But who entered the NPC links that go nowhere?

Jürgen: I did. I entered a description too, in fact, but it was deleted (or went AWOL somehow). I can try and resubmit them.

I had an NPC to enter, but was having a tough time adding him. Part of the issue no doubt is i've never actually added to Wiki before. I didn't stick with it long enough to figure out why it wasn't working. There is a help link i noticed later, but the NPC is right now stored on a computer i haven't worked on in a while. I guess i'll try to get it in sometime in the next week.

Is there a template for SR4 characters that you would like to see? We are 2/2 on the wiki now (2 different formats for 2 npcs) but they are similar.

It inspired my current project acctually, Which is "NPC Fast Cards". At the moment I am working on them and using some of the NPC's on the WiKi as a basis for the data I am putting on the cards.

Its slow going though because I am working 10-12 hours at the print house in which I work at and I have to maintain my 3 weekly games which I GM.

The basic idea is that I will eventually have a set of cards that are laid out lie the ones on page (236-239, SR3) & (65 & 79)... Except for unlike them... Are GM useful.

Basically all the useful stuff out of each section mixed into one card.

Anyway, enough babbling on and back to finishing off the Ganger Set 1 of the project.

My advice is: just post them. The great thing about a wiki is they can be edited later to conform to a template, once a template is decided on.
