Forum:CT Archive/So here's something new: Aurebesh quiz page

After discussion with several Wookieepedians, I have decided to go forward with an idea that brings something fresh to the Wiki. As I perused the categories, I came across the one that showed about sixty users claiming that they could read Aurebesh without referring to a chart. Knowing full well that I can't, I wondered if something could be put together that would allow us as Wookieepedians to test our knowledge of the in-universe alphabet by solving sentences written only in the text. Since we now have this font from the April Fool's Day joke, it could be used to create any message.

In order to prevent people from cheating, well there's no way to completely avoid that, but at least the page itself could be created in two sections: one to display the message or messages, and the second for users to submit their answers. First to get the message right without looking gets credit for solving the message. We might even tap some of these individuals to decipher instances of Aurebesh in many in-universe sources (although I was told that Trip does all of this already).

I think I will stop here for now before getting too close-minded about this. If anyone has suggestions for this idea, please post them here. --  Riffsyphon  1024 09:00, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
