Review of the Lego Star Wars Wiki

Aloha from The Internet Explorer!

Today's review is about the Lego Star Wars wiki.

Lego Star Wars is a very popular video game, especially amongst Star Wars nerds. Its wiki isn't bad, either. It has a good layout, and a respectable amount of articles (540+). However, the episodes in the game do not have walkthroughs for the searching player. The sections contain only the names of actual Star Wars Lego sets.

There is a section that contains the names and appearance dates of characters (e.g., Yoda). Most of the articles are stubs, and do need cleanup. But considering the popularity of the game, and how quickly the wikia has grown, it is likely that the LSW Wiki will have a growth spurt soon enough.

There's a bit of actual Star Wars story in here, though there is an exuberance of stubs. For people who aren't very savvy about the whole plot in Star Wars and just bought the game for fun, there's little here that will interest you. There's a small forum and chat room, but the actual Star Wars wiki is much better. If you're wanting to undertake a huge remodeling task, sign up here and start writing!

A bit of statistics:
