*[[:Category:Fan art|Fan art]] should be named consistently as "Artist - Piece". Artists with several pieces should have their own category in [[:Category:Art by artist]] as well.
*Images hosted on other domains should be localized (uploaded to this wiki, and the external links changed to point to our local copies) to protect against the external sites going down. As a secondary priority we should also copy over images that are currently hosted on other subdomains of oni2.net; though these are less likely to go away, there is no way for the subdomain owner to know whether their images are being linked to if they suddenly get the urge to do some spring cleaning on their account.

==PlayStation 2 port==
==PlayStation 2 port==
The community has always tended to overlook the PlayStation 2 port of the game, for fairly obvious reasons -- it doesn't play as well, and it's impractical to mod a disc-based console game. Nevertheless, we ought to have a page like [[PS2 Oni vs. PC Oni]], modeled on [[Windows Oni vs. Mac Oni]], which explains the differences in PS2 Oni from Win/Mac Oni. We should also devote at least a tiny amount of research to the contents of the game data. Might some unexpected resources be in there? First we need to know how to read the game data. Based on a cursory examination, resources were moved around and re-packed, but one would expect that the basic binary format of the tags has not changed. Thus, it would be nice to have a page like [[OBD:PS2]] that gives at least a high-level view of the binary data (e.g., how the .dat files are now packed).
