Cleaned up some grammar and spelling on a page but was too afraid to really edit it hard. smilie I didn't know how much i was allowed to change for the sake of proper grammar.

Also it looks like most pages have random information instead of uniform. I noticed one of them even had separate sections for join date, posts, etc. Maybe there should be a template for users to fill out before their page is up. That's sure as heck make everything look more serious.

We haven't yet added any use rinformation on the wiki. The pages that are there now were added by the users themselves.

And yeah, I'm thinking the same. The information is kinda random at the moment. We're just getting started on this idea.

We've added BigBoom and Metallo.
I'm wondering what happened to Spyrobaro's page, since it was the fist that was sent.

Here's how the process goes:
1. Wspyro summarizes PM received from user.
2. Wspyro sents description to Samius.
3. Wspyro sents a Thank you PM when your description has been sent.
4. Samius enhances the description.
5. Samius sends the final description to Wild.
6. Wild uploads it to Wiki.

Also I'll send the PMs to the users that asked later. Right now I'm not on my laptop.

Baro's Grammar School has commenced once again!

Example of there: The ball you're looking for is over there.

Example of their: Their dog is an absolute disgrace to our neighborhood!

Example of they're: They're a bunch of oddballs, eh?

The correct version of this word that you should've used is "their". Also, "thats" needs an apostrophe, so that it's "that's". Speaking of which "but that's true" should be its own sentence.

Also, you must capatalize the beginning letter in each sentence!

*i'm sorry guys i had to*

*claps*
You need to make a topic about this, and make it stickied ;A;

Oh, right. Baro's description. I just sent it back to you instead of sending it to wild. I'll dig it out.

Edit: We should probably add these new pages into the "users"-category.

They should be in the users category, but chances are I might've missed some.

Also, names mentioned will link to their own pages.

Thank you. I am actually the one to word the final form of the starting descriptions, but really, the others do the most of it.
Wspyro first summarizes them from the answers you guys give him, which is a humongous amount of work. Wild then edits them on the wiki, which she is currently taking care of pretty much all by herself.

Guys, if you notice that something was misrepresented, feel free to edit it to what you meant.

You guys may see some stuff removed. I cut it out because you went off talking about your personal life when that isn't really necessary.

Since I won't be able to edit the Wikia constantly, I'll run down on the code for the infoboxes.

First, in order to add this, you have to go to the "Source" tab, which should be near the top next to the "Visual" tab, which is the default editor. In the source tab, you see...well, basically the source, all the coding that the article is composed of. Spellcheck will also work here, it's pretty useful.

The location you put this code does matter, as it will "float" to the right of any text it is placed near. For example:

Quote:
{|imagine code here|} TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT </ br> </ br>

TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT TEXT


Will cause the box to float right of the first paragraph. This is where the code should go unless there is a quote at the top of the page or something other than a user summary.

The first snippet of the code is the styling, which defines how the info-box will look. Don't change colspans and anything enclosed within the "style" tags. However, I may have a separate style when moderators come around to indicate if any users on the wiki are mods, because they are supuh important.

Anyways, when editing this code, this is what you change:

"Username" to Username of the user it's on. Pretty self-explanatory.

---

Quote:
[[File:Example.jpg|center|200px]]

In order to add an image, this is what you edit. Only edit the bolded part. However, first you need to have an image uploaded.

I suggest using the default uploader (there should be an "Add features and media" section to the right of the editor and in it there should be a "Photo" option) and uploading a photo randomly on a page that is outside the code.

When you upload a photo to a page, you will see already uploaded photos and an option to upload a new one.

Upload a new one under circumstances that you don't see any image for the said user in the directory.

Add the photo without adjusting size. You will see this [[File:yourimagefilename.xxx|thumb]] in the source code. xxx = Will be your image extension. It could be various extensions.

Take the bolded part and replace it with the other bolded. Since I'm not good with words, here:

Quote:
[[File:Example.jpg|center|200px]]


Take yourimagefilename.xxx from [[File:your imagefilename.xxx|thumb]] and replace Example.jpg with your imagefilename.xxx, so it now looks like this:

Quote:
[[File:yourimagefilename.xxx|center|200px]]


So, overall:

Quote:
{| style="float:right; width:100px; border:1px solid #999; margin:0 0 1em 1em;"
|-
! colspan="2" style="font-size:large; padding:5px; background:#944D94; color:#FFA366;" | Username
|-
| colspan="2" |[[File:yourimagefilename.xxx|center|200px]]
|-
| '''User ID'''
| Unavailable
|-
| '''Join Date'''
| Unavailable
|-
| '''Gender'''
| Unavailable
|-
| '''Birthday'''
| Unavailable
|}


BE SURE you have the image you used to get the filename removed from the page!

And now onto the much easier stuff.

Quote:
| '''User ID'''
| Unavailable


Change "Unavailable" to the User's ID.

In order to find a user id, you can go to their page and there will be two locations of it.

1. The address. For example, you click on my name and the URL in the address bar will be "http://forum.darkspyro.net/spyro/profile.php?user=472". The bolded part is my User ID.

2. A user's ID will also be under "Account Info" on a user's profile. Like this:
Quote:
UserID 472


A user ID is the identifier of the user. It is embedded in all posts they make and all messages they send. It also tells, well, how many user accounts were made before the said account was created. Some sites rely on user-names, but many rely on IDs due to them being easy numerical identifies that are less probable to cause glitches and so forth in the coding, and if a site allows user-name changes, the user's ID will never change even if their user-name changes constantly.

Quote:
| '''Join Date'''
| Unavailable


Join date should be under "UserID" under the Account Info section. Note: Depending on your location, the Join Date will appear differently. It is important that the wiki stays consistent, so please have the date in infoboxes displayed as "Day/Month/Year", and it's easy to rearrange numbers if you have the settings as "Month/Day/Year" without having to change your forum settings. Be sure to check!

Quote:
| '''Gender'''
| Unavailable


Not all users will have a Gender on their profile (it should be located below their avatar if they have it shown). Please leave it as "Unavailable" if a user does not display their gender, even if you know the user's gender. Alternatively, just ask them if they want it on the wiki. Believe it or not, gender can be a sensitive subject for some people, so it's always good to check with them.

Quote:
| '''Birthday'''
| Unavailable


If the user has a partial birth date listed - for example, I have "February 21st" and I provide no year, please only list what is there. It's important that if a user wants their age or birthday protected, that you respect their privacy even if you may know their birthday and age. You may ask them, of course, and respect whatever answer they give you.

And that's it!

Only edit the bolded areas.

Throw any questions at me if you want anything clarified and so forth.

Adding headers:

Under the "Visual" tab, you should see a dropdown titled "Format" underneath are all types of headers you can use. Heading 2 is the main sub-header, and heading 3 is the sub-header of heading 2 - and it goes on with the other heading options too. Make sure you have text highlighted in order to change the heading of it.

If a page has more than 3 level 2 headings (heading 2), a TOC or "Table Of Contents" appears at the page which contains all headers and works like the Wikipedia Table of Contents.
