**Umbrella Corporation and it's subgroups hava a long history with Urban Dead starting way back in early 2006 Umbrella Corporation Recent Events [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Umbrella_Corporation/Recent_Events] [[Umbrella Corporation/History]]. During it's prime it had substantial presence in [[Molebank]], [[Shearbank]], lastly [[Ruddlebank]] and the surrounding burbs Geographic Influence of the Umbrella Corporation[http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Umbrella_Corporation/Geographic_Influence_of_the_Umbrella_Corporation]. Historically Umbrella Corporation has never acted alone, working alongside many groups including others that are no longer with Urbandead [[Umbrella Corporation/Alliance Archive]]. Umbrella Corporation is true to its common public image and has been a target of those seeking intrigue, malevolence, power, corruption and other role playing aspects popular with the group. At its peak of influence the group faced it's greatest adversity when it became the target of hackers, zergers and slanderers followed with emotional losses of core members and facilities yet it still managed to survive even with the continued aforementioned attacks. The fall of the Fourth Era was a precursor for events to come including a war with it's own subgroup. Umbrella Corporation has also contributed to spicing up the wiki with member original content for what would mostly be empty pages: [[Corp Boulevard Railway Station (Ruddlebank)]], [[Factory 53,29]], [[Handley Towers]], [[The Holmes Arms]], [[The Nisbet Building]] and [[The Rush Building]] As well as a large collection of excellent templates [[User:Cody Mac/Templates2]].--{{User:Jackson/Sig}} 23:48, 14 November 2012 (UTC)


Traditionally those nominating groups write a short paragraph explaining why they have nominated said groups. --[[User talk:Rosslessness|Ross Less Ness]] <sup>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERLLUoZn0mM Enter Stranger...]</sup>  23:12, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

:that usually applies to groups that have some accomplishments in game tho.--{{User:Sexualharrison/sig}}<small>23:28, 14 November 2012 </small>
::Should I remove them? Since they were absorbed into our group I thought the these pages should be represented as well.--{{User:Jackson/Sig}} 23:55, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
:Aren't these separate groups? Some of us chose not to pay attention to the drama-bomb that exploded with them, so I have no clue which groups are sub-groups are separate. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 23:32, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
Can I start this over or something? I misunderstood the voting. I thought people would be voting for each unique page. I'm simply representing Umbrella Corporation, I'm not here to represent the other subgroups that were absorbed into us. Just thought it was part of the measure of voting to include those groups with us.--{{User:Jackson/Sig}} 00:21, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
:You can try again a week after the voting ends if you really want, but I seriously doubt you'll get a friendlier welcome next time. Anything with the name "Umbrella" in it (with a [[Umbrella_(Musical_Group)|handful]] of [[Umbrella_(Accessory)|exceptions]]) tends to get a rather visceral reaction from most folks, based on what I've seen over the years. Since I missed most of the original drama, I don't entirely understand it all, but I wouldn't bet on making it into Historical Groups unless you can cite something that's actually historical. I.e. Something that changed the way the game was played. You may have accomplished more than some groups, but most of those groups came earlier and came up with ideas that altered the course of the game in some way. Without being able to show that you did so, it's hard to succeed in getting through these days. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 04:46, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
::Thank you for your sympathetic response. I guess I'm not the man to do this. Surprisingly (or not) I did most of the coding for anything Umbrella related on the wiki with the exception of templates. It was a lot of time spent that I hoped to be preserved. When the second Era ended our history was deleted from the internets by those who seized control in the Third Era. It's really the stigma of Umbrella Corporation. It's a lot of fun to role play it out but didn't translate well with ends not justifying means. The incident in which the majority are basing their decisions off of was with a character player named Haliman111. I'll spare details that lead to the "drama", but he was a fine addition to our group at the time and a great adversary at the end of it all. Same cannot be said for those who destroyed our forum or erased our history. Around six years our groups involvement in-game. I'd like to think that we did something, but perhaps I will simply be left to thoughts.--{{User:Jackson/Sig}} 20:52, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
You should have contacted me Jackson, even though I could have told you in advance this attempt would have stood no chance at all, and while Umbrella is something of a long closed book to me, I wouldn't have minded writing a decent overview of the group's shaded past that I knew of. Even though even I personally lean on "No", right now this bid doesn't do the group justice. Perhaps I'll try to write something better, if only to serve as a counterweight to some of the more predictable criticism. -- [[Image:Cat Pic.png|14px]] [[User:MisterGame|<span style= "color: maroon; background-color: white">'''Thadeous Oakley''']]</span> [[User_Talk:MisterGame|<span style= "color: black; background-color: white">'''''Talk''''']]</span>  10:27, 16 November 2012 (UTC) 


:This proposal wasn't authorized by the current leadership of Umbrella Corporation. Although I have great doubts that this'll go through (Yes, I understand our shady history); I would like to say that Jackson no longer represents UC as a whole, he hasn't for quite some time. Although we are largely inactive, we still continue on as unnoticeable mist... I, as the current legitimate Chairman of the Board, CEO; in no shape way or form condone Umbrella Corporation (Or it's sub-groups) being nominated for historical status.

DB => [[Battle of Santlerville]][[Battle of SantLUEville|<sup>2</sup>]], [[THEM]] => the modern NT Defense, Four Winds and 404 => [[C4NT]]ness along with having a significant impact anywhere they went against groups many times their size, [[COMBAT REVIVE]] => This group is why DIRT:NAP exists along with the offensive revive strategies numerous popular UD extensions and are the documented source of the modern mobile group strategy, [[MOB]] => Pick a reason they all apply to MOB. All of these groups(except MOB who are 07) came around during or after yours, a few by ''years''. I could throw [[the Dead]] in there too actually since they also came later. I'd actually rank even [[The Malton Globetrotters]], the [[Dulston Alliance]], and [[Extinction]] as more notable groups though I wouldn't include them on an historical list, particularly not that last one. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 14:11, 10 July 2012 (BST)
I have to go with Hib on this. Now a days all the groups still active can't change the game. The historical votes should be closed if that is the case. The Pathetic Bill votes just goes to show the biased PKer base the wiki has. A Pker group can get the okay, but a BHer group does not stand a chance? And from a bunch of people who do not even play the game anymore? How can that be fair if they aren't even involved in the game? Put it this way those who don't even play the game probably do not remember [[Samhain Slaughter 3]] Team Xtreme was the force behind getting as many of the Bounty Hunters together to attack the PKers before their strike on a Mall. This action made it so the PKers had to try to create a decoy Mall to throw the BHers hunting them off the trail. (This did not happen in the previous Samhain Slaughters) We did find the true target and did strikes on the PKers. We even warned the occupants in the Mall of the upcoming attack (Although they chose to ignore our warnings) The Mall of course was destroyed do to the fact that PKers have always out numbered the Bounty Hunters. But there is no denying that we were a challenge and Samhain 3 would not have been as fun with out the cat and mouse game. For those who do remember Samhain 3, tell me this how was the other Samhains after that? When the BHers did not bother to interfere? I also would like to point out that Team Xtreme always took pride in the fact that we were the first and biggest thorn in the PKer group [[Heathers]] side. To my knowledge no other Bounty Hunter or group have targeted the Heather's them selves as well as their "Man Slaves" The battles TX had against the Heather group are things of legend. I also would like to point out our battle with the [[LUEshi's Rangers]] on their Journal here http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/LUEshi%27s_Rangers/Campaign_Journal if you would read the entry for their The Penny Heights Campaign November 05th, 2010 - November 23rd, 2010 The rangers words speaks volumes. From our works in both Text Rapists hunting and Zerg Hunting as well as all the other things mentioned from numerous people who knew Team Xtreme both as allies and adversaries Team Xtreme should be listed as Historical. But the way things are run on the wiki it is clear that this proves to be impossible until things are changed. --[[User:Josh Clark|Josh Clark]] 17:05, 9 July 2012 (BST)

:For one, [[Samhain Slaughter 3]] is a non-historical event for the same reason this group is having trouble passing the bar, a lack of significant impact on the game or the meta-culture thereof. It was also the most prominent thing on the Columbine Kids' bid which is part of why ''they also failed'', if you want important PKer related events you'll be hard pressed to find any mostly because they just don't happen. Neither of the other two groups you mention having involvement against have similarly had a significant impact on the game. The few pker groups that have been listed had high membership and/or(inclusive, as the 2nd applies to all) a massive psychological impact on the meta-psyche of the game, [[Red Rum]], [[Malton DEA]], [[Amish_Liberation_Front|the ALF]], the [[Disciples of Zeko]], etc. These are all PKer groups that were notable terrors at the time in the game. People as a survivor you always worried about showing up and who represented the absolute best of what made the PKer threat mentality that led to the formation of BHer groups and lists in the first place. People changed how they played because of them, Urban Dead was changed because of those groups presence in the game. Team Xtreme or Colombine Kids are simply not on that level, and two of those groups had less than 20 people. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 13:45, 10 July 2012 (BST)

==Historical Characters==
{{Quote|The Hierophant|If there were a category for Historical Characters (and I have long believed that there should be)...}} Good point. Why is there not one and who do we see about getting there to be one? Admittedly the voting on such a category could get ugly from time to time, but it would seem to be a useful thing to have a who's who of the zombie apocalypse past and present divided into reasonable subsections (survivors, zombies, Pkers, BHers etc) with explanatory text or profile links. If in game personalities were only considered if they had contributed to UD for a long enough period (say 3 or 4 years) outlined in a guidelines section, the ranks of such a category should not get too overcrowded--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Sunday, 8 July 2012</sub>
:I'd imagine the introduction of such a category would require a vote and the usual wiki bureaucracy. As far as potential ugliness goes, I can see a couple of possible flashpoints: The first is voting, as you mentioned; the other is write-ups: Just who would write them and what/how much could they say? On the length of contribution, I agree that we don't want it to get too crowded, but three or four years of contribution for a character (as opposed to player, which is a matter of further discussion, as some players are more influential than their characters) is, in my opinion, rather too long. There are people who have done a lot in no time at all and others (the majority) who have done nothing in a very long time. There also also the matter of whether we'd accept entries for active players. All points for discussion. Considering those who could be included, here's a starter list just from the top of my head (if anyone truly viable has been excluded it's down to a lapse in memory or my own lack of insight into their playing 'faction', not because I'd necessarily vote against them):
'''Zombies'''
*Petrosjko (Founding Papa of the RRF).
*Sonny (Second Papa of the RRF, leader of the Big Bash, controversial character, Papa during the Battle of Blackmore).
*Murray Jay Suskind (Fourth Papa of the RRF, rebuilt the War Council, the man who conceded defeat at the Battle of Santlerville).
*Lord Moloch (I hate putting my own character forward, but the case is there. Not wanting to go ego-pumping, I won't denote the reasons unless asked to).
*Goolina (Founder of the Gore Corps, hugely famous and controversial character).
*Grim (Former Warmaster of the RRF. Notorious, hugely influential in the formation of the horde).
*Jorm (Leader of the RRF's Barhah Brigade, founder of the MOB... We all know he would have to be in).
*Bisfan (Second leader of the MOB. Famous and very well-known).
*Keith Moon (Leader of Minions of the Apocalypse).
*Bullgod (Leader of Feral Undead).
*Katthew (The Dead and others. Also, just... Katthew).
*We'd also need reps from Eastonwood Ferals, LUE and Shacknews, though it's a matter of debate which ones.
'''Survivors'''
(Others will need to pad this out, as there are gaps in my knowledge, especially on individual CVs. I'm a killer, not a breather...).
*Kristi of the Dead.
*Alex DeWitt.
*Sir Fred of Etruria.
*Ron Burgundy.
*Sexy Rexy Grossman.
*Jensonson.
*Someone from CDF.
*... Yeah, help me out here!
'''PKers'''
*Sirens.
*Karloth Vois.
*Headless Gunner.
*Kyle the Feared.
*Alf Landon.
*Pathetic Bill.
*There are more, obviously. I don't know much about the foundations and histories of the Philosophe Knights and DARIS, for example. Also, if high bounty characters are to be considered then we should rule out all self-reporters. The isn't a single truly significant PKer who self-reports, as far as I'm aware.
'''Bounty Hunters'''
*AidenFury.
*Strayla.
*Nicholas Risto.
*Josh Clark.
*Ciskokitty.
'''Others'''
*The top Zerg hunters such as Prudence and Caesar Augustus (the latter is me again, full disclosure FYI) are worth considering.
*Someone come up with more, as I'm done with thinking for now.
So yeah, there's a start based upon characters alone. Obviously if it was extended to players then there are more to be considered (Anime Sucks, for example), as that would have to encompass the metagame. --[[User:The Hierophant|Papa Moloch]] 07:35, 8 July 2012 (BST)
:PKers: Bob Hammero and Jimbo Bob. Others: Me (for reviving the Malton Manhunt and making those events such a blast during the Manhunt's golden era). BHers: minus Ciscokitty, plus Lois Millard, Raven Corvus, Erica Rackham, and Katie Burns. Survivors: Dickholeguy (best fucking leader the Malton Rangers ever had), Lachyrma. Zombies: The organizers of Big Bash 1, 2, and 3, and whoever founded Shacknews. Just my two cents. --{{User:Axe Hack/Sig}} 13:56, 8 July 2012 (BST)
::Make it too complicated and the wiki may experience some slight turbulence and then explode. Call it historical characters and give it the exact same criteria as historical groups, and you might see the category debut in early 2015. Or hold a discussion on how to ''improve'' the groups category so that's it's not such a preening popularity contest (assuming there's a way for it not to be), and ''then'' institute the characters category. That would take us to 2017.  --{{User:Paddy Dignam/sig}} 16:54, 8 July 2012 (BST)
:::^This. Honestly, no need to put such a list through the typical wiki beuracracy. Not only would it breed contention, I'm sure you'd run into some issues with userpage edits should someone want to add a Historic Characters template. I believe Ross started something in his userspace already. As for some of my contributions: Kevan (duh) and Akule (contributions to zerg hunting). I'd include more but I don't think this is really the place for nominations. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>18:21, 8 July 2012 (UTC)</sub>
::::we could honestly make it a consensus driven article like Notable Suburbs voting. That actually historically works better for filtering out the *Really* notable ones as opposed to the popular can win an at the time vote ones. I would be against any vote type system for this and since we're discussing it here's my take on Moloch's list. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 20:56, 8 July 2012 (BST)

::I agree with Karek on a lot of these, although I don't know if excluding someone for making a big impact on the metagame is entirely fair. There's only so much a single player can do without it being classed as 'metagame'. Headless Gunner, for example, organized and led the PKA during its heyday for a LONG time, besides which he gained notoriety for leading the CGR to victory for years.
::TBH, I don't think there's a single Philosophe Knight who would be eligible for the page either way, though, Moloch. I've been one since January 2007 and I couldn't name a single one besides ''maybe'' Flogging Molly whose name was recognized outside of our forums. We go out of our way to ''not'' make a name for ourselves, and frankly, I don't think the group itself qualifies as Historical (longevity isn't enough).

With all due respect it is a good idea in theory, but there's already a potential circle jerk going on due to the fact that the requirements for a Historical Character would be even more vague than a historical group. I mean no offense to Axe, but if he seriously thinks that he belongs on a list with the players Moloch listed then he's fucking insane. But given his number of friends he'd be a shoe in. People complain about meat puppetry and popularity contests as it is with Historical groups. What do you think's going to happen when it's individual players? For example, I could probably get myself on this list if I called in enough favors and asked enough people to vote for me despite the fact that I clearly don't belong on that list either.

I think people are getting confused as to whether we are basing this on characters or players. {{User:CrunchyCake/Sig}} 21:54, 8 July 2012 (BST)
:I was thinking that considering only players would weed out some of the meta-game that people find offensive. Some of it is unavoidable; let's face it here, we are dealing with 9 colored squares and a couple dozen boxes. Also, there are fewer players active consistently and contributing to the state of Malton for long stretches of time than there are users who stick around and run different players. The more stringent the application requirements, the fewer will be eligible and the easier such a thing would be to manage. As to it becoming a popularity contest, voting always is. Why fight it when you can work with it? The only control you can exercise regarding the quality of the applicants is in eligibility requirements. If those are more black and white (A certain active duration, no self-nomination, etc.) you insure that anyone who has managed to meet them and still is able to win a popularity contest, belongs in the category. To a certain extent, being important makes you popular most of the time if not necessarily liked in all cases. Founders of historic groups would be a good bet to win a vote like this as would milestone characters like Bud, but it would also open up the category to influential individuals. As to whether the players need be retired, if you think about it, knowing the heroes and villains of the past is handy from an academic standpoint but knowing the living legends who are still hanging around Malton is a lot more useful from day to day. I would argue that, as long as they meet the requirements, active/inactive status should not be an issue. While this would be best in a more public space, if it must be confined to Ross's userspace for the time then so be it. Just let me know if there is anything I can do to help. For the record, I would not vote for Axehack either but that is because he stopped using his namesake alt in manhunts some time ago. Given another year or so of continued advancement of the institution of manhunting in game, I might be inclined to vote for his mudkip. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Monday, 9 July 2012</sub>
::It'd be characters for sure. Case in point; Huey Long was a super famous personality in zombie culture, Keith Moon/Petrojsko level famous. Most people don't know that he's actually an alt because the player in question intentionally separated their personal reputation from the characters. Notability in the game should reflect notoriety in the gamespace, things people can be curious about without needing external knowledge or forum participation. That at least should be the basic starting barometer of if a character is truly noteworthy. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 09:30, 10 July 2012 (BST)

Revision as of 21:56, 8 April 2019

Obtaining Historical Status

A policy is in place which outlines the method to attain historical status.

  1. Groups must no longer actively contribute to the game.
  2. A nomination should be made on Category talk:Historical Groups.
  3. Voting will last for exactly two weeks following nomination. To be successful, a group must be approved by 2/3 of eligible voters to pass. A minimum of 15 votes must be cast for the vote to be valid. The only allowable votes are Yes and No.
  4. Groups that pass will be added to the category as described below.
  5. Groups must allow a week to pass between nominations.
  6. Groups must allow 4 months in between when the group disbands and when they can be nominated for Historical Status. (Note: Only for Malton-based groups)


Nominations for Historical Status

When nominating a group, please add a note to Template:Wiki News and add {{HistoricalGroupVoting}} to the top of the group's page. Also, please add {{HistoricalVotingRules}} under the group's application for historical status.

New Nominations
