This is the new home of the SCA Heraldry Wiki, since wikispaces is closing.
It has been suggested that a searchable wiki for SCA Heraldry would be useful. And when the subject comes up, it is determined that, ideally, someone with knowledge of Wiki programming should take on this project, hosting it at a secure server that "we" own and control. This is that wiki!!
If you have some competence in SCA Heraldry and wiki programing (MediaWiki) and would like to help, you're welcome to join in!
Templates have been created for your use. Entries should refrain from personal opinions, and should generally __quote__ from official SCA Heralds documents such as the __Standards for Evaluation of Names and Armory (SENA)__, the __Glossary of Terms__, __Laurel Precedents,__ __Letters of Acceptances and Returns__, and other recognized references. The original sources should be clearly noted and, if possible, linked.
This wiki has 905 articles and over 400 images incorporating:
- The Index of the Ordinary of the SCA Armorial
- The Glossary of Terms, including Reserved/Restricted Charges, Proper Colorings and Default Postures
- The Standards for Evaluation of Names and Armory (SENA) with Appendices
- The Administrative Handbook
- The Heraldic Primer (the original one by Stephen Gold)
- An annotated index of the Pennsic Traceable Art Project
- The Index of the Pictorial Dictionary of SCA Heraldry, 3rd Edition
- Precedents from the Cover Letters from 2012 to the present
- Compiled Name Precedents
- Compiled Armory Precedents
- Miscellaneous precedents as they've come up on heraldic discussions
- Numerous period devices as they've come across in heraldic discussions
- Links to Modar University, St. Gabriel's Academy (articles and reports), period armorials, artwork sources, on-line names sources, etc. etc.
This is obviously not an official document of SCA, Inc., the SCA College of Arms or any of their subsidiaries, etc.
