Gamepedia expansion or new pedia idea

[DreadArkive]

Just started using Gamepedia and love it. One thing I would love to see is an addition of finding other various game formats (CCGs, board games, etc) to further expand on the capabilities of archiving a massive game collection. Any chance of such a feature or pedia in the future?

We would like to expand Gamepedia in that direction, but it will take some time to make it flexible enough to do that as the formats are so different.

I am also very interested in a version that would accommodate board games. I have several hundred in my collection.

Yay, a boardgamepedia I am totally in favour of the idea (700+ games for our club, and no time / concentration / ... to program anything those days, being pregnant and tired)

Thank you for the feedback. We are still trying to figure out how to map the fields into Gamepedia as well as finding a good source of information. But it's a common request and users have even turned to adding them manually as this user has done.

Huzzah, you guys noticed my video! Hope you liked it, even as basic a summary as it was.

Excellent video., thank you for creating it. There so much to Gamepedia that to cover it all in a video would be a feature length movie. I had not realized that you were the original poster about board games plug-in.

Same for me. I am also in favor of a boardgame pedia version!

Indeed http://www.boardgamegeek.com is THE source of info.
Another very reliable one in french is http://www.trictrac.net.

Thanks,
