So, Aster and I have been working on this sucker for the past month or so, and we've gotten it into pretty good shape. However, there are lots of people and especially Flowers missing. What this means is that we couldn't find where the heck they came from or any other mention of them in actual PPC writings, either because said writings never existed, or they vanished, or--most likely--no one ever put a link to them anywhere useful, like the character's wiki page. (Hint: all character pages ought to have links to the materials they appear in.) This is why we need your help, and by "you" I mean "everyone who has Permission and/or knows where to find things."
To begin with, check the article's <a href="http://ppc.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:GlossaryofPPCCharacters">talk page to see if your characters or any that you recognize are on the list of Characters with No Appearances. If they are, and they do appear somewhere, you need to make sure to link to the places they appear on their wiki page and then move them onto the list--or, if you're not comfortable with that, tell Aster or myself where to find them.
If you have characters there who don't actually appear in writing anywhere, you should consider taking them off the wiki, since as far as PPC continuity is concerned, they don't actually exist (yet). It's a bit silly to have articles for characters who don't exist.
We haven't gotten around to checking all the Flowers yet, I think mostly because we're just plain scared of the gaping chasm of information about their origins, since so many were brought about here on the Board with no actual use of them in a mission or interlude. Help in that area is particularly appreciated.
You may also notice that we've redirected a buttload of pages to the Glossary. This is because said pages only contained the information that appears in the Glossary anyway, and a bunch of stub articles looks unfinished and bleh. If you'd like to remake a page for anyone, please do, but make sure to fill it out with more than just their department, partner, writer, and links.
For more details about the Glossary, see the page itself. There's a thorough description of how to use it, which you should read because it's there to be read.
If you have questions, feel free to ask here or on the talk page.
Oh, and one last thing. LOG IN WHEN YOU EDIT THE WIKI. Thank you.
