| This wiki is a Semantic Wiki that ties together all the knowledge of this organization into a Semantic web. It differs from other wikis in the use of forms and tables to produce a metadata database that guides users (and robots) to the information they seek.
| | Subjects simply must tie into the general theme of ''Internet Folklife'': that is, it was made on or otherwise affected daily life on the internet at some point in time. We also often rehost abandoned or otherwise lost wiki content. Focus topics include Something Awful, 2channel, 4chan, and other imageboard/textboard communities. |

| === Uploading Images ===
| |
| | |
| Images that are an integral part of an article are allowed to be . This includes photos, tables, diagrams, figures, and charts. Since this utilizes Amazon S3 for file hosting, we advise that you use this option sparingly.
| |
| | |
| Images that are screencaps or of other importance in their own right should be posted to booru.eikonos.org instead. It has more space and fewer bandwidth restrictions.
| |
| | |
| There is a unique exception to allow images from imgur.com to be embedded. However, whenever possible, either Eikonos or this wiki's own image hosting instead.

| | |
| === [[Bibliotheca Anonoma]] ===
| |
| | |
| Articles about the Bibliotheca Anonoma itself.
| |
| | |
| * [[Bibliotheca Anonoma]] - What is the Bibliotheca Anonoma?
| |
| * [[Bibliotheca Anonoma/History|History of the Bibliotheca Anonoma]] - The Bibliotheca Anonoma has had a long and storied history since it’s first git commit date in January 18th, 2012.
| |
| ** [[Bibliotheca Anonoma/History/2012-2014|2012-2014]] - In the early days of the Bibliotheca Anonoma, it was a one man operation with some contributions from random anons. This is the time where the Bibliotheca Anonoma wiki was built on Github.
| |
| ** [[Bibliotheca Anonoma/History/2014-2016|2014-2016]] - Once the BA set up an IRC and Discord channel, we began to gather more members and accomplish more things. The BA also put its full efforts into keeping 4chan archivers active, though admittedly the Github wiki became disused as a result.
| |
| ** [[Bibliotheca Anonoma/History/Current|Current]] - A strong community, significant reforms, and new infrastructure typify the modern Bibliotheca Anonoma. The Github wiki was once critical to our operations, but became disused as the Gollum wiki engine failed to match our growing needs over the years. As a result, the Semantic wiki you see here was developed as a replacement.

| == [[BASLQC]] ==
| |
| | |
| The '''Bibliotheca Anonoma Software Liquidation Commission''' (BASLQC) is a task force dedicated to archiving and optimizing software past and present, as well as maintaining associated hardware. Additional tasks encompass research into further mods, as well as technically complex translation projects.
| |
| | |
| * [[Hosting]] - Server hosting tips from our resident experienced sysadmin, Sunako.
| |
| * [[Computing]] - Preserving retro computing hardware, as well as providing guides to certain types of modern hardware.
| |
| * [[Keyboards]] - A good keyboard is worth as much as a good monitor: because you should be spending the most on the part of the computer you actually touch. Computers have now been flooded with lackluster rubber domes, but gaming enthusiasts have revived the concept of the the premium Mechanical Keyboard.
| |
| ** [[IBM Buckling Spring Keyboard]] - The king of all keyboards, as seen in the IBM Model M keyboard, the newer Lexmark and Unicomp versions, and IBM/Lexmark Wheelwriter Typewriters.
| |
| * [[Typewriters]] - Guides to operating and maintaining certain typewriters, primarily the IBM Wheelwriter series.
| |
| ** [[IBM Wheelwriter]] - The IBM/Lexmark Wheelwriter are the last great typewriters. Their electronic buckling spring keyboards (akin to the IBM Model M), as well as relatively minimal mechanical parts make them durable and usable to this day. Their word processing capability, character correction, and reprint features make them more accessible to modern typists.
| |
| * [[Kantai Collection]] - Kantai Collection is a naval strategy game popular in Asia, their equivalent of "fantasy football".
| |
| ** [[Kantai Collection/Vita]] - The Kantai Collection Vita game is significant for it's ability to be dumped, and the fact that it is programmed in Unity. With the release of Vitamin/MaiDumpTool, this allows translation to non-Japanese languages, as well as deeper code analysis and even a possible port to PC.
