Deletion Appeal
The reason my pasta felt "unfinished" was because my browser tends to crash unexpectedly a lot, so sometimes when I am working on stuff like that, it usually crashes without warning, and it doesn't save my work, so I do slight edits on it and save so my browser won't crash on me and my masterpiece will be gone ;) --Liammeister (talk) 01:28, October 24, 2016 (UTC)

Old Account and Deletion Appeal
If you're interested, I'm here to verify my email to lend credibility to me being SP, as it was mentioned on my application for rollback, and I thought of the idea to add a vehicles category (random but old so maybe that will help). I have sent it to you before regarding the slack channel when I was SP. Would you add me to the slack channel?

Also, would I be able to help out on deletion appeal? It's something I used to do and never had any issues with other users and I did thorough reviews there. That would help out the wiki IMO.

Rules Addition
I remember there was a rule against adding posts that contain links to other wikis (or maybe it was adding posts that mention other wikis), but I can't find it. That was a good rule IMO. Do you think that should still be a rule? If so, it should be added to the rules under "General Rules", "Spam Pages and Troll Pastas", "Blog Rules", "Talk Page Etiquette", and "Article Comment Policy". There's a post here about another wiki.

 * There definitely should have been an No Advertisment policy somewhere in there. I'll poke around tomorrow to see if it is and if it isn't, it will be. ClericofMadness (talk) 05:26, November 4, 2016 (UTC)

New Category Idea: Houses
Houses would be a nice distinction from the places category, and searchers could save time if they're more interested in either places or houses. I think there would be more than enough stories to fill the category. I'd obviously help with adding the category to stories.

TenebrousTorrent  05:58, November 4, 2016 (UTC)


 * Fairly sure this is waaay too broad of a category. ClericofMadness (talk) 06:39, November 4, 2016 (UTC)


 * It would narrow down a broader category, Places. Why would it not be a good idea if it is too broad?


 * TenebrousTorrent  08:46, November 4, 2016 (UTC)


 * Because, define for me the parameters of this category. Just...do that. ClericofMadness (talk) 16:14, November 4, 2016 (UTC)


 * A place would be an amusement park, for example, and a house would be a house. If somebody was interested in houses they could search the places category, but it would be faster if they could have all the stories about houses. If they were looking for a story about an amusement park, they wouldn't waste time sifting through the stories about houses. The work is already done.


 * TenebrousTorrent  00:00, November 5, 2016 (UTC)


 * By THAT logic, we should make a category for amusement parks, towns, forests, etc. Which would be deemed excessive. that's just me though. I personally don't think it's necessary. Psychobilly2422 (talk) 01:56, November 6, 2016 (UTC)

Rules Pages
Did you add to the rules that there should not be advertising/linking of other wikis?

TenebrousTorrent  04:46, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

Apologies/Discussion
Tone is such a hard thing to convey at times on the Internet. What I meant to imply by that "Stfu or get banned" comment was that I intend to push to get my story on the site, but I'm not willing to get banned for it. Apologies if it was not taken that way.

Cleric, I'm not trying to insult you, Dupin, or anyone else. I'm not trying to take anything away from Banning, which is why I've reached out to him twice now, first for his permission to make the appeal, and then to ask him to throw in his support once Jay and Skelly seemed to make a case for me (which Banning has emailed me and told me he did.)

I'm not trying to attack Dup. I love Dup. I've got a long working relationship with him. I originally reached out to his talk page when I made the appeal because of that relationship: I knew he would make sure the appeal got looked at. I made my responses on his talk page because he is the one that has been responding to me and I'm trying to get a clear cut answer on why my appeal is being denied.

You say that the rules are up for reexamination. That's all well and good...but as Jay said, they have not yet been changed.

You say you aren't a dictator. What am I supposed to think based on my current circumstances? As of right now I have at least three of the, I believe eight now that we have PsychoBilly, administrators giving their support for my story making the site. Dupin has given the story a positive review in the past so at the very worst I feel he is a neutral vote, though I may be wrong. That leaves Tom and SloshedTrain, neither of whom I've heard from so far. You, sir, who are the only one to have come out with anything negative to say about my story, at least that I have been privy to. I have probably spent close to thirty hours writing, editing, and revising this story. I am (God help me) an artist and for my art this amazing website you've created is the single best place for me to put my work so others can see it right now. And I am will to fight for that.

I can't argue with you that this story is shackled by the original. Hell, that was the point: everyone said it was impossible to take the original Jeff the Killer narrative and turn it into something that met the quality standards of the site. I took that as a challenge, and think that I succeeded. I am asking, begging if that's what it takes, for you to please reconsider.

If I've reached the limit of your patience, please feel free to tell me to STFU or get banned. (I say..ah...I say that's a joke son.). Thank you for your time.

Shadowswimmer77 (talk) 06:23, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

Cleric, what do you want me to say?
That doesn't answer any of the points that I made. And yes, I feel that the decision is being railroaded as I currently have, by my count, a vote of 3-2 from the admins to let the story on the site (it appears I was incorrect and Dup is against it). And once again, I don't want to get banned for this, and I'm serious when I say I'm not trying to insult you. But please, try to see it from my perspective.

As for combative? I'm not calling names, I'm trying to be civil. Am I passionate? Sure. But I want to walk away from this still friends with everyone, regardless of the outcome. I've commented on things that I don't understand and am trying to convey how it appears from where I'm sitting.

Shadowswimmer77 (talk) 06:41, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

That I got the great Cleric of Madness to make a train noise on my talk page. That makes my day regardless of the outcome here.

First person to ever have the Creepypasta admin team run a train on him. Wait...

Shadowswimmer77 (talk) 06:59, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

Good times. Look I have to call it as it is getting way late here and I, unfortunately, have to get up for a job tomorrow that has nothing to do with Creepypasta. I hope y'all actively consider my appeal...id appreciate knowing how the final decision is made (particularly if it's in the negative) as it would make me just feel better about everything for my own sanity. I'm also hoping I've managed to clear the air...I'm being 100% honest when I say this is a great site/community you've built and I really do feel privileged to have my small part in it, and would hate to do anything to jeopardize my reputation as an (I think) generally easy going, agreeable individual. Cheers and thanks for the discussion. Shadowswimmer77 (talk) 07:11, November 8, 2016 (UTC)

Blocking Policy
The wording on the Creepypasta Wiki: Blocking Policy page is too harsh IMO, that was an issue with the quality standards revamp a while back. Would you change "category abuse" to "a category violation"? A lot of times the mistakes with category violations are from first-time users. The templates regarding category violations all stick with the term "violation" even that term is a bit severe.

TenebrousTorrent  01:28, November 10, 2016 (UTC)

There's violations, and there's also abuse. Abuse gets you banned. Violations gets you warned. This is abuse:


 * I can agree with that. The page does say "in most cases of first-time category abuse", would you change it to "For first-time category violations"? It's not really necessary to block someone for a first-time category violation like that unless they were warned already, IMO. Some new users reading the rules may think the wiki is cutthroat reading about abuse of categories, especially with mentioning first-time offenses. And I don't think intentional category violations should be explained on that page, it's pretty rare and self-explanatory. But it could be iterated that going overboard with new categories after being warned is normally a reason for a block. There's also a missing word: "users should be given (a) warning". (CTRL+F to locate specific words on the page).

Interview request
Hi,

I'm contacting you as Mr Dupin suggested I get in touch for a project on which I'm currently working.

I'm an author and journalist for the UK's largest horror site and I'm currently writing a series of features on the most iconic, frightening and culturally significant Creepypastas and internet legends, later to be collected into an eBook.

Here are a couple of examples to give you an idea of what I'm doing: http://www.ukhorrorscene.com/dark-web-steven-hickeys-essential-guide-to-creepypasta-part-17-penpal/

http://www.ukhorrorscene.com/dark-web-steven-hickeys-essential-guide-to-creepypasta-part-20-funnymouth/

I wondered if I might be able to ask you a few questions about the Creepypasta Wikia and the whole Creepypasta phenomenon?

Needless to say I would be more than happy to show you the article for your approval before publishing and would be sure to include all credits and links to your sites, plus references to any upcoming projects for which you might appreciate any additional publicity.

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this, I really do appreciate it.

Best wishes and kindest regards, Steve

Either I'm crazy or my user account is haunted. Either way I have the basis for a cliche-ridden pasta. Shadowswimmer77 (talk) 07:04, December 8, 2016 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I know it's not how it works. And I did that. And then I hit publish and the nowiki text repopulates. Like I said, crazy, or haunted account.
 * Yay? I guess? Thanks anyway, appreciate you looking into it. Have a good one. Geez, how is it this late already? I may be crazy after all...

Hi, this is Sandwicheater199. Today, I just made a story called " The red el camino ". But for some weird reason, my story got deleted because it said that it did not meet any standards. Is their anyway you can bring this story back on this wiki, because this is my first post on here and it makes me feel bad that I didn't follow the rules, but I did, I think. Please reply back if you get this message. Sandwicheater199 (talk) 21:26, December 11, 2016 (UTC)

I'm trying to write a pasta named "(C) FILENAME IMSCARED", and i was nearly done. Then a pop-Up said i was doing illegal things to MY OWN PAGE!!!!. All i wanna tell you is that i was trying to write a pasta.

I'm here to suggest the parental page be moved to the front page, there's an empty space in the top right area of the screen. It's on a good spot on the navbar, but there's no reason to keep it off the front page.

Hello There!
My name is Hailey Sawyer and I was wondering if you could take a look at a story I'm currently working on. So far, it contains about 14 chapters so I can send you a certain amount of chapters per message if that will make reviewing the story easier for you. The story is called A Trip to Cape Cod That I Won’t Forget (Originally called R.L Stine’s: The Haunting Hour Season 4 Episode 13) and it's basically a lost episode pasta that goes for a more psychological approach. I've made sure to use as few cliches as possible and to correct any grammar error I see. If you're interested in reviewing the story, let me know and I'll send you the first three or four chapters.

Heeere's Hailey!  Wanna Talk?  23:35, December 17, 2016 (UTC)

Reply to "Yes and No" Message
Oh my god! I totally forgot here were different types of admins! Ha ha! Forgive me for that! Also, I'll remember to post the chapters off site the next time I want to show certain chapters from the story.

As for Lost Episode pastas, yes I agree. It's a genre that tends to follow the same formulas over and over and I can see why they wouldn't normally be allowed on here in this day and age. But I do like a good challenge and making a Lost Episode pasta that seems at least somewhat fresh is definitely no easy task. Though, if it is going to be featured on this wiki, I'm really going to have to up my game or just post it off site if that doesn't work out.

I have a copy of the full story (it's at least 14 chapters long and at this point us unfinished) if you're interested in looking at it. I've been writing this pasta for nearly two years now and it has gone though a ton of changes (you should see how the first draft turned out. Spoiler Alert! It sucked!) Though, I'll look it over to see how I can make the beginning of the story less formulaic. You see, for this story, I'm aiming for a more psychological approach (which is something very few if not no Lost Episode pasta has tried before) which should help set the story apart from others in the genre. I'm also reviewing every episode of the show that the pasta is based on for research purposes.

Thank you for voicing your opinion on the matter! It really gave me an idea of the odds I'm up against.

Mindfuck catagory
Hey! I'd like to add a new catagory that, well I accidently added anyway. (it was deleted)

The catagory is "Mindfuck" or something like that.

Its pretty simple, anything that really shifts your reality or makes you question your own existence is a mindfuck.

Non - NSFW Page
I think there should be another page or category for stories that aren't NSFW (or all NSFW stories should be labeled) because it's easy to accidentally pull up an NSFW story.

"Feel" or "Sad" catagory
When I go to a creepypasta I expect to be that, creepy. Of course, a small portion of those creepy pastas actualy are a little creepy, and just pull the heart strings. A catagory to group these would be nice, because it is a seprate genre

Legendary Pastas
Greetings, my Supreme Esteemed Royal Benevolent Inquisitive Awesome overlord.

I want to submit my idea/suggestion/request for a new Category Page and possible subcategories for it.

The Category in question is: Mythology

Why I think it's worth adding
And that is basically it. Should you consider adding this category, please be sure to leave a message. Should you reject the very idea of it, well... at least find a nice way to tell it to me, as I am prone to sit in a corner and write depressing love poetry when people talk mean to me.
 * Great many stories would fit in that one.
 * It would help people such as myself find what the wanted to read.
 * It would enable the spread of creepy old folk stories, that are abundant in the world.
 * Some myths and legends are downright creepy, and can easily beat some pastas with hands tied behind their backs.
 * When was the last time that some category was added? This should refresh Wiki a bit.
 * I personally consider this to be a worthy category.

Message from Korra Misses JANE the killer
Hi, this is Korra misses JANE the killer. I used to be TheKorraFanatic on QUOTEV until some cyber-bullies got my friends and I kicked off. I really miss QUOTEV a lot and I hope to be back on someday. The reason behind my name (in case you're wondering) is because my QUOTEV girlfriend was named JANE the killer @liveisfadded. Those same bullies got her disabled as well. We were supposed to be having a QUOTEV wedding on February 27, 2017 but when we got kicked off QUOTEV, we lost contact. I will be using this name until we talk again. I hope to be able to find her on this website as she was a big Creepypasta fan. Her URL when she was on QUOTEV was @liveisfadded, So if anybody knows if she's on here or she herself sees this, please feel free to message me. I miss her very much. Sorry if this is bugging you, but I am trying to find her again. I am afraid we lost contact forever when those cyber-bullies had us disabled on QUOTEV. I don't even know if she is on this wiki, but I am hoping. Sorry if this wastes your time. I had no clue who else to write to.

Hi Cleric,

Many thanks for the welcome message (very glad to be here). Hey, had a question. I tried to post a pasta last night (spent four hours editing it, actually) and it was rejected for being spam. A bulk of it is in screenplay format so I don't know if that confuses the system or not. Is there any way I coud send a pdf or anything? The format is very important and I'm hoping I could get this uploaded somehow soon.

Many thanks!

If you need to reach me, please hit me up at my email

All the best!

sorry about making a new catagory

Category: Collabs
Hey, Cleric. It's me, that new guy on the Rollback team.

So I was just reading through the finished draft of the 2016 collab and I thought that we should have a category for that. I know I don't pass the 'at least ten pages in each category for it to be passed' rule, but I think this could still be a good category for the folllowing reasons:

A: It would help people find the collabs, as right now you have to have some previous knowledge of each one to be able to find it (i.e. if I didn't know the 2014 one was Meet the Cast, I would have no way of finding out about it other than searching for collabs.)

B: It could help us sort them from the regular articles. If we made the collabs something more than just regular articles, a user could see other collabs at the bottom of their page and actively choose whether or not they would like to read one again.

So... yeah. Those are the main reasons I think that should be a category. I suppose I should have spent this time editing or writing, but I felt this suggestion should be made.

Quick question - what in the world is up with my story? It seems to be in a sort of "limbo" on the site - even though it was deleted, it's still up, in a creepy sort of way. It won't show up on the wiki if you search for it, outside of the edits that I've made to it to describe its odd status, but it's definitely there. It was in my "Favorites" tab on Chrome, and when I clicked on it - hey, presto, there it is. Anyone here able to explain this?

Featured Wiki Videos
Hey ClericofMadness. I'm Julia from Fandom's Community team. By now you may have seen our announcement about Wiki Modernization and how we're using featured wiki videos to reduce the number of ads on the site and improve the performance of all Fandom wikis.

For the future we plan to have wiki videos in many communities and probably also on Creepypasta wiki. If you are interested in which video types we might use you can find some great examples in this blog post. When we start producing videos we maybe will also reach out to you, other admins, and users to be involved in writing video scripts or being part of the production process.

I've gotten fanart and praise for the both of them.

Hey
I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking about coming back here part-time as a regular user and wanted to let you know first. I'm sorry for how I left things and for the things I said to some of you. I'm on a new medicine and am doing much better with it, so hopefully nothing like that happens again. Anyway, hope all is well.

Stoy containing animal cruelty.
Hi ClericofMadness.

I'm contacting you as the most recently active admin. We have had a complaint about the story Normal Porn For Normal People. I've reviewed it and the only part I have a problem with is the explicit description of animal cruelty (the chimp bit). I consider that "abusive and offensive" and so outside the ToU. I realize that pushing the limits is part of the storytelling here, but that goes a bit too far. The best solution would be to edit that part out, can I leave that in your most capable hands? -- Sannse (help forum | blog) 18:34, August 16, 2017 (UTC)

Clark Ashton Smith Category?
I was wondering if we could get a category on Clark A. Amith?

I've been adding more older horror stories lately and this author has had my appeal for a while. He is one of the three big Weird Tales authors along with H.P Lovecarft and Robert E. Howard, the latter two have their own categories.

Most of his works are in the public domain and are online. Two huge examples of online text would be Wikisourceand eldrichdark.

I do plan to add some of his stories and I'll think this'll help because he is a more well-known author and has a big bibliography. Thanks for taking time to read this.

Werewolf story contest
Hey, bud. Don't worry, I'm a professional; I won't flake on this thing. I'll be reading them as they come in so as not to get too overloaded. I also cleared my schedule to ensure I have the time to critique each and every one. Blacknumber and KillaHawk also told me they are working on stories as well. In my experiences with these contests, it seems like only half the people actually submit a story anyway. I just hope we get some great tales of lycanthropy!

Feel free to hit me up with any questions, comments or concerns. You can message me on Facebook, too.

Happy October, brother! Hope you're catching your fair share of horror in this glorious month when the veil between the living and the dead grows to its thinnest.

Was this a contest?
Cleric, noticed you adding categories for the past contests. Back before such things were regimented, Natalo posted a writing challenge in a blog that spawned a few stories (including my own The Lonely Stars). Not sure if it's deserving of its own category but figured I'd call your attention to it. You can find it here http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Natalo/A_Fun_Writing_Challenge_(for_anyone_who_wants_to_participate) Edit: guessing not since it says right in the blog it isn't a competition...

Hey Cleric, I’m new here and I just noticed a typo on an archived page. Repercussions of Evil says “John gotted his plasma rifle” when in the original it uses the “word” “palsma.” I don’t know if this is intentional or not, but I thought I’d tell you in case it should be fixed.

Why this pasta was deleted?
Hi.

I wont to ask you. Why this creepy pasta was deleted?

I think its named Why the long face .avi

Thats a pasta: We live on about 48 acres of farmland, about 30 of which is basically his. "My father always told me as a child, that there are secrets and reasons. There are reasons we lock the doors at night. There are reasons we leave the lights off. There are reasons why we can never move. I always knew there was someone out there. someone not like us. He's still there and he always will be. Something is bothering him and always will. What's bothering him? I know, that's why I am scared to go back outside." Here was the video.But it was losted. Thanks for reading. Your AnonimoysUser125

if there is a particular pasta you think i should write feel free to tell me or if you want you could make some tweaks on any pasta I make on my own feel free to do so thanks

RE: Publishing Question
I'm reposting my Jan 12 query--

Dear Cleric Of Madness, Banningk1979 said I should talk to you about issues related to publication since you've dealt with the technical publishing end on you book. Well, I have an issue with the ebook publisher Draft2Digital. They tell me they can't submit one of my long stories to their various vendors due to it being featured here as online content. I was wondering if you ever had to deal with this similar problem when you were publishing your stories and if you have any suggestions of what I should do?

Banningk1979 says he thinks that it's a policy held by this particular publisher, and not so much an industry standard. He happens to have four stories published in your book We Go Bump Vol. 3, all of which are still on this wiki. Also he has a story published in Mr. Creepypasta's book, which is also still on this wiki.

Maybe the publication rules are different if the particular story is in an anthology. I really don't want to delete one of my stories due to some persnickety policy.

A user by the name of Lady Nemec has been putting these, "Demand better" posts on pastas. They are saying how the admins don't care about the quality of the pastas, and the "overused gore." I've seen this on Normal Porn for Normal People, (which does have a little gore, not much,) and I think Cupcakes, (which does have lots of gore, but was done correctly, gonna fix my rating on that.)

Can you investigate this matter soon?

User Category Request
Hello, I was wondering if I qualify for a user category. I've gone over Banning's blog post several times, and think that I do. I currently have 13 stories/poems posted on here, with 11 of them either signed or credited by a template. (I would sign the other 2 right now, but I don't want to spam the recent activity with edits by myself on my own pages). A few of them are under Brokenkenya, and one is credited in a template (by another user trying to help me out) to Frank Phillips, which is my pen name. If need be, I can provide proof that Brokenkenya is myself, and I can also change all the credits to my current account.

If I don't qualify, no worries, I was just wondering.

A Face In The Window
I would like to know if my Pasta could be Reuploaded. I feel it was falsely taken down because of the first version i uploaded. I feel you only read that one.

I know, I was supposed to Proofread it before submitting. But I Did not Know that rule when i uploaded it..

My Pasta is as Follows

"I have Seen Something That I need to share.

My First Encounter was In 2009, I will List the dates here.

September 8th, 2009
I first heard it when I was Doing some Homework. I heard a Noise Outside my window. I didn't see anything; So I Went back to my Homework. It was raining hard that night, and I was Tired, so I Thought it was Nothing. I didn't See it for the Rest of the night.

September 12th, 2010
It was Saturday, So I invited A friend to Spend the night. While we were Playing video games, We Heard A Noise.

"What was that?" He asked, Nervous. "I Don't Know, It sounds familiar." I said. I knew That was the Noise I heard before. "Go Check It out." He said, He sounded as scared as I was. I Looked out the window, and saw something. I didn't Want to tell My friend because he was way more sensitive than I was.

"What is it?" He asked. "There's Nothing there, we must be hearing things." I said, Trying not to sound afraid. "Can we just go to sleep now?" He said, sounding Fearful "I'm Tired now." I knew he was frightened. "Sure, Let me turn the TV Off--" I said, He cut me off. "NO!" He said, "Let's Just have some Background Noise" He sounded Freaked "OK, I'll Keep it on" I said. We went to sleep.

September 17th, 2011
I was awoken by a noise at my Window. I didn't want to look. I knew it was that thing I saw. I decided to Look out my Window, When I Realized That my room was colder. "Are you awake? The doors were looked." My Sister said. "Yes, Just come in." I said, tired. Realizing That it was OK, I went back to sleep.

September 18th, 2011
This Morning before school, I asked my sister about last night.

"Hey, Did you come Through my Window last night?" I asked, Eager to know.

Before She Answered, I realized,

My Room was on the Second Floor, and we Didn't have a Ladder."

A response would be nice.

This might be a stupid question, but what if I were to rename The Basement of Doom story instead of having it deleted from the wiki?

RE:2 eBook Story
Hey Cleric. On second thought, I'm not going to do that survey of whether or not I should keep that story in Creepypasta. I finally decided it's okay for it to be deleted since I'm just going to go ahead and get it out to a much wider audience, and not have to bother arguing with Draft2Digital over what exactly is considered public domain.

--Tau Epsilon (talk) 20:08, February 21, 2018 (UTC)Tau Epsilon First time for me bringing this up but, how come psychological isn't a category? it's perfect for the.. quite literal psychological horrors/stories on the site? it just seems fitting for you know... a psychologically manipulative scenerio? madness, and the such... or does lovecraftian imply that? which is... to be fair, kind of stupid to lump other genres into one. being as how not all of lovecraft's works were totally psychological thriller, horror or the like. and forcing a category onto a story like, Beings into my recent story? there are no beings involved, only the implication of possible beings. that is why psychological is my request as.... those beings in the story might not even actually exist but in the mind of the protagonist and it seems to ruin the story with the category Beings lumped onto it. as it suggest to the reader that the beings that the protag may be witnessing are in fact tangible

Hello Cleric,

I'm sorry if my story felt unfinished. You see, with this story, I was willing to go for something much more chapter based style, like CosbyDaf with the NES Godzilla creepypasta. It would be a long creepypasta, and one that I would hard on when I got the chance. I had high hopes for it. But then I was blocked by you. Now, I'm not here to say this was your fault, as I feel it is MY fault for not including the part of story it was supposed to be. However, I will say this...

If you look at a story, and find it incomplete, be weary. Sure, the author might have been lazy. But at some point, I know, you might find a story. A story where the author might have intended to leave it unfinished. A story, that is one chapter, of a whole story.

I hope I wasn't preachy,
