Design Models

The Bibliotheca Anonoma is descended from various model wikis that templates were directly copied from, or otherwise inspired the MediaWiki instance.

  • Arch Wiki - The code templates, template documentation system, and Note boxes are inherited from here.
  • Traveller RPG Wiki - The cargo templates are heavily influenced by their implementation here.
  • Tanasinn.info - Their VIP quality templates are just plain hilarious.
