Template change
There is one instance on MediaWiki:Forum-policies-and-faq where tt needs to be changed to t. Specifically in the "Writer's Showcase" section. It's not that big of a deal, but it would be less confusing for anyone reading the rules. LOLSKELETONS (talk) 22:39, March 27, 2018 (UTC)


 * Got it!  Thanks.  I was asked what tt was for and I found it could be a tooltip, never realizing it was also for template stuff, hahaha.  ClericofMadness (talk) 22:42, March 27, 2018 (UTC)


 * It's fine, it was basically just a snazzier version of undefined with no other real function. If I find it being used on any other important pages I'll let you know. LOLSKELETONS (talk) 22:47, March 27, 2018 (UTC)

Kris Straub story
Hate to bug you again, but it appears that The Gambler's original title was "Opossum Society." I have no idea why it's titled "The Gambler." Maybe the OP found it on /x/ and decided to upload it under that name?

Anyway, if you could change that, it would be much appreciated. LOLSKELETONS (talk) 00:35, March 29, 2018 (UTC)


 * On it, thanks! ClericofMadness (talk) 00:41, March 29, 2018 (UTC)

Just posting to let you know, it wasn't a story on my page (you removed 90% of my user page). thanks, laserraptorz

Category Suggestion
I'm honestly surprised there's no "Food" category. Do you think having one would be useful, since a lot of creepypastas seem to include food-related themes?

Question, how do you delete your own creepypasta work, marked for review or not? I think my brother made something on this account which neither was he suppose to, but does not also meet what a creepypasta should be. Thanks in advance.

So I cant post my pasta on here I've gotten really great feedback from that one is one of my best so far.

Category suggestion:toys and board games
I feel like this wiki may have had this category in the past, but I'm not sure. I think it would be a good category, though I'm not sure how to go about finding all the pages it would be applicable to.

HopelessNightOwl (talk) 04:37, April 24, 2018 (UTC)

I also think "Worlds" would make a good category as a contrast to "places". Worlds could be for stories set in a speculative setting or taking place partially in another world, while places would be for real life locations.

HopelessNightOwl (talk) 04:15, May 4, 2018 (UTC)

I second this. It definite seems like there's a need for this category. Maybe as a subcategory of Items/Objects?

Mistake. Please Help!
Hi. I made a bit of a goof-up. A user left me a message about having a username category. I mistook them for an admin and added the category to all of my stories. I do qualify for the username category (I have 11 stories). Can you help me? Thanks so much in advance. Sorry for the mistake.

Questions about writing and genres
Hello, sir.

I want to submit a pasta, I read the genre rules and know it will be about space, but it could also fit the theory genre.

Here are my questions:

1- Should I submit my pasta to the writers workshop before putting it on the site or, if I'm confident enough of the pasta's quality, can I submit it directly as a pasta?

2- Can my pasta have more than one category? Can I put it in both Space and Theory, or should I choose just one of them?

3- I want to use a real world world institution as a setting in my pasta, the SETI (search for extra terrestrial inteligence) observatory to be precise. Are there any problems with this that I should be aware of? Can it be done or should I omit the institution's name?

4- As a side note, despite using SETI my pasta does not involve any form of alien life. It will be written as an e-mail or a letter. The main charecter is a worker of SETI that went rogue and wrote the e-mail/letter to publicise information he was told he shouldn't. That's why I'm worried about using the institution's name, but it is important to give the pasta credibility and weight.

Thanks in advance.

Wiki Contribution and Quality Standards
Hello, Cleric! I've comtributed my first story to the Wiki. It's called An Alert from the Future. I would like one of the admins, such as yourself, to review it to make sure it is up to the quality standards. I'll gladly change anything if necessary.

I'm also curious as to how these standards are enforced, and who, if all the admins, are responsible for enforcing it. If you could explain to me how that works, I'd be very grateful, since knowing this process would make it easier for me to submit any stories for review ASAP.

Thanks in advance. Best regards,

Concerning my own user category
Hi, Noctevoire here. I'm here to apply for my own user category on the wiki after a long hiatus. Told to contact an admin; thought you'd be the best to talk to. My pastas meet all the criteria-- I have 10 original pastas for this wiki that do.

Are there any steps to discuss along the way?

So why did you deleted the Max and Ruby 0004 page

Hi,

I thought I drop in to share some category ideas.

I was thinking about Hotels, Shopping Malls, and Libraries can be creepy places, especially if they are abandoned.

I have heard many ghost stories surrounding abandon buildings, some with gruesome backstories. If gore is not allowed on here, my apologies.

If you think these are worthy catagories, let me know.

So it seems FANDOM has decided to discontinue the tag which means every page using the YouTube template is fucked. Fortunately, only two pages used it. I already took care of One-Man Hide and Seek; now all that needs to be changed is Lavender Town Syndrome.

Concerning my entry for SFTSS

Hello. I am but a lowly newbie, and I had a question. Where does the little symbol thing for this wiki originate? Why is it 4, semi-ovular, bloody looking spots?

Just curious.

Hey there. I just finished putting my first creepypasta together not long ago and I was wondering how exactly I would go about uploading it. Either I'm blind as a bat, or I just can't locate a page that tells me how to do it.

I have it put up on FanFiction here: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12985469/1/BattleBlade-Girls-THOMPSON-creepypasta

Since it was written using FanFiction's up-to-the-minute spelling checker, I'm sure I've squashed out any spelling errors that are in there. I'll ask everyone in the workshop if it needs a little fine-tuning before it's ready to roll.

I'm sorry if this is kind of annoying. I don't really come on Fandom very often, so I'm not familiar with how it works.

Is rap-rat a normal game?

Category
I was told that I should ask you if I think a category should be added. I've added more than ten stories (which I was told was the min. ammount required) by Clark Ashton Smith, and I think that stories by him should have their own category.

Smith was one of the three major Weird Tales authors (Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard are the other two, and they have their own categories) and had relationships with many of the famous pulp writers at the time. He is known for his vocabulary, morbid subject matter and humor, and how he didn't really follow pulp traditions or cliches. For his poetry, he is considered to be grouped with the "Last Great Romantics."

All the stories I've posted are on my profile, and his Wikipedia page (because I'm too lazy to find an offical biography) is [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clark_Ashton_Smith here. ] Thanks. CASandLD (talk) 00:17, July 10, 2018 (UTC)

Newcomer
Greetings! I've recently joined the wiki, and had a few questions regarding site navigation. I've been on several different writing websites in the past (and actually had an account on this website several years ago) and some of them had a chatroom for users to talk to each other. Does this website have a chatroom?

Another question I have is, when it comes to editing posted articles for grammatical purposes, is it alright to just edit the article if we see a clear mistake, or should we leave a comment and recommend the author fix it themselves?

Other than that, I'm excited to be here!

Delete Now template suggestion
I come to you with the smallest suggestion.

A few days ago when I was looking into how to mark an article for deletion I came across the template. When going to use it through the Visual Editor it asked me to input some parameters: "1" and "nocat". The latter parameter had an obvious function but the former was completely out of the blue. Upon further inspection I realised that this parameter is where one would enter a reason for the deletion of the page.

With that said, could you (or someone else) change the name of that parameter from "1" to something less vague such as "reason"?

I would appreciate it and I am sure that others will as well.

A Couple of Small Things
Heya Cleric, how're you doing? I happened to be stopping by & noticed a couple of things that it might make sense to change.

There seem to be quite a few differences between the category rules on the genre listing and those at the site rules page for the genre listing. The latter seems incomplete, and since Llanunall's recent blog for new users links to it, this could lead to people not knowing the category rules. A couple of the rules are also redundant these days - e.g: "PokéMon and Zelda pastas are not to get the Video Games tag" isn't necessary now that "Stories in the PokéMon category are not to be added to any other categories, except Historical Archive, Memes, Poetry, Videos and Theory". AFAIK this is partially my fault, I was really rushing when I added the newer rules for exclusivity in these categories (sorry).

As an aside, does it make sense to maintain these two pages separately anymore? Their content is very similar. My initial feeling would be to add the missing rules to the site rules subpage & redirect the original genre listing to it, although there could be some reason for having the two pages that I'm not seeing.

Also, should Sheena be removed from the wiki CSS? She seems to have demoted herself & globally disabled her account.

Hope you guys are all doing well, I miss contributing around here.

Odd request
I come to you with a bit of a weird request.

Could you please consider having FANDOM turn on the variables extension? I know it sounds like the most random thing in the world but I assure you it is not. All it does is allows you to create variables on the page which you can then use later on. It might seem silly to request this but I have just a few template ideas where this would really really help out and I would greatly appreciate it.
