Cantr II Discussion Forum

Cool reference to Cantr: http://www.heute.de/ZDFheute/inhalt/20/ ... 04,00.html (in German)

Indeed yes, hopefully it will bring more german players but how on earth did you manage to find that?

I'd say it will bring more esperanto players

Definitely cool. Let's just hope that many people read this article. I know I would never have found it without help.

Does anyone know if this Susett is on the forums, by the way?

I know about it because Judith (Junesun) pointed it out - but I have no idea how she knows ... She probably knows when Esperanto is in the German media, though ...

I can't read it, but could this be used as a "third party" article to justify getting the Cantr Wikipedia article back up? As I understand it, that used to be a major source of new players, and was axed because it was "irrelevant" since no third parties wrote about it.

That definitley sounds worth trying

I guess a lot will depend on how it is formulated. We would have to emphasize how Cantr is really still unique in its concept (it is, for as far as I know) and how other respectable sites link to it.

I'm not sure about the Wikipedia policies, but this article seems not very suited as a third party article. After all, it's not about Cantr but about the 100th birthday of the Universal Esperanto Organisation. All what is said about Cantr is:

"(Susett says:) "I'm a fan of the online game Cantr II, where everyone can generate a character and is able to develop a common world." Besides an English and a German character, she has -of course- created an Esperanto character"

And that's it basically.

Well, if you want to mention link Cantr on Wikipedia, someone with a Wikipedia account could put it on this page:
