I'm currently in the process of creating a forum bot to hopefully be of some assistance, entertainment, etc... for bungie.net in the near future. Some of the things I'd like to be able to do is to use information from sources like Google Search, YouTube, Wikipedia, and so on to find the most relevant and appropriate responses the bot can give (I've been playing with it [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Topics?page=0&ty=0&s=1&d=1&tg=%23bot7]here[/url] if you'd like to take a look at what it's capable of). For example, when someone asks where the latest mail sack is, they should receive a link to it.
Given that destiny.wikia.coma and bungie.wikia.com might be able to provide some of the best responses to the kinds of topics on bungie.net, I'd very much like to use the information stored there too. Getting the information itself from both sites isn't really that difficult (wikia.com has an API for its sites), but the most pressing question I have is how [i]good[/i] the information is. So what I'd really like is some feedback from the administrators (or anyone who has used them) of both sites on how well maintained their respective sites are. This could include how quickly information is published on the wiki from when it is first published, spam/abuse prevention, how accurate they believe their articles are, and so on.

Sounds like a good idea. I've always wanted a proper search engine first after using the one on Bungie.old, which really didnt work well.
