This is the page to talk to me, or ask questions, or comment, or really put anything you want that relates to me, that you want to share... So type away...


Hello

I'm not too sure if I'm using this PM format correctly. It's a lot different than what I'm used to.

But yeah, I have a few questions. Firstly, for example if you check out the page for the AoL game, you'll find scans of the AoL manual. And look at a character list page for TP or OoT and you'll see an image gallery. I was wanting to do something like that. Axiomist


Yeah, you're using it fine. You just edit the users talk page, and using the same Wiki format, you can talk back and forth like so...So if you say something to someone on a talk page, for the answer it's good to check back there.

I sent you a PM at ZU, so I hope that explains what you want to do with pictures. I think there may be templates to help with pages such as character lists. I'm not too sure about them, so I'd recommend talking to a sysop. I recommend Adamcox82. He's good.

Hope that helps, Melchizedek

Ideas

Hi there! At the risk of sounding like some "voice of authority", I feel I have to point out a few things in relation to your ideas for improvement of the wiki:

  • Walkthroughs for all Games
It is a matter of general agreement that this wiki is not the place for strategy/walkthroughs. For this purpose, we operate a reciprocal arrangement with strategywiki.org.
  • Glitch lists, and Instructions for all Games
A good idea would also be to formalise the formatting/placement of these, as there are a number in various locations around the place.
  • 100% Completion Checklists for all games
See point 1 above.
  • Theories: Search the internet for every descent theory and give 'em a page
To be treated very carefully. Theories are opinions, and opinions cause conflict. We have a very strongly segregated "timeline theory" area, and display some of the most widely accepted/acknowledged theories within some articles (always within a clearly labelled non-factual section). I'm not saying don't add them, just to remember that this is an encyclopedia of facts, and not a pamphlet of ideas and musings ;P

That said, I'm sure there are others who would disgree with any/all of the above, and such is the nature of a wiki! I only point out what seems to be the majority/longstanding opinion on such matters :) --Adamcox82 18:34, 28 April 2008 (UTC)Reply[reply]
