Welcome to the Gabriel Knight Omnipedia: a database that anyone can edit.

We are currently working on 1,136 articles.

The idea of this Omnipedia is that everyone can contribute.
It doesn't matter if you're a long-time GK fan, or a first time visitor. We want you!

Enjoy the page, and good luck adding pages. Please do not break copyrights. A screenshot is OK, a game is not ;)

Note: This wiki divides information in three separate main categories in order of publication: The first is information related to the original game series, the novels, and then the 20th Anniversary remake. This largely imposes restrictions on the content related to the various versions of the Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers and The Beast Within storylines. See GK Omnipedia:Canon Policy for more information on formatting.

Further information on the differences between story mediums can be found here;

About the Omnipedia

The point of the Omnipedia is to make new pages, and link to others. You can edit every page in this Omnipedia to add new information, by clicking the "Edit" link at the top.

It would be preferable if you created an account, so we know who you are ;)

You can edit a page using simple text, or a subset of HTML.

To see what other people have been changing, click the "Recent Changes" button to the left.

I'd suggest visiting the Space Quest Omnipedia, Police Quest Omnipedia, Quest For Glory Omnipedia, and the [Conquests Omnipedia], the sister projects of the GK omnipedia, to gather inspiration to lay out a page and suggestions on what sorts of pages might be added. Feel free to discuss ideas and ask questions on the General Discussion page as well.

Some suggestions, just to get people started (please add your own!)

Editing Pages

From an existing page, you can create a link to a new page (whether it exists or not), by putting [[double brackets]] around the linked text. That will create a link to a page titled "double brackets".

Obviously, you want to link to better pages than "Double brackets" ;)

Creating New Pages

To create a new page, edit an existing page, and create a link to it. Then, click on that link and click Edit. (Or cheat, and type it into the URL bar directly, such as http://sq7.org/KQ/index.php/Double_brackets)

When you make links, make sure there's not another link there already (such as, we had Abdul Alhazred and Alhazred both). That way, we won't have to combine and do redirects.

Etc. Add your own, please! You can see the pages that people have linked to, that don't yet exist here

Also, PLEASE add a small summary (in the summary box, under edit) when editing a page. It makes it MUCH easier to see what you've changed ;)

Let us know if there is anything else you want help with.
