‎Gods: updated kiku's page for 0.11

New page

== Project goals ==

The goal of this project is to go through the updates and <s>cross out</s> lines once they have been incorporated into the appropriate wiki page, or if they don't require any changes.

If you think a page is up to date, make sure to add [[:Template:version011]] (i.e. <nowiki> {{version011}}</nowiki>) to the page.
