If you are here to inquire about a story of yours that was deleted, read this first as it will likely explain why.

'''Are you here about a Journal Entry pasta that was deleted? Read that guide before asking why your story was deleted.'''

If you are inquiring about a longer story that was deleted, perhaps this guide will elaborate on possible issues.

This guide on micro pastas should help if you are wondering why your short story was deleted.

Maybe it was an NSFW pasta that was deleted, if so, this guide has you covered on common pitfalls.

Or maybe it was a more emotion driven story that you're wondering about what went wrong and how you can improve.

QS
A few minor things I noticed while re-reading Creepypasta Wiki:Quality Standards: LOLSKELETONS (talk) 02:48, October 22, 2019 (UTC)
 * "Cliches" should be lowercased.
 * "Put an image in the author's head." - this should probably be changed to "reader's head."
 * In the section of the FAQ explaining the difference between a story with elements that are nonsensical and a story that straight-up doesn't make sense, the link to an example of the latter is dead. I would change it to this for the time being.
 * Speaking of this section, there seems to be a disconnect here in that the page never makes any mention of stories needing to "make sense" (exact quotes) before this section. I looked in the page history, and it turns out it's because, between Callie's version and the current version, the part that said "The story needs to make a degree of sense" was changed to say "The story needs to be coherent." One of these sections needs to be updated to address this disconnect.
 * Also, the opening sentence of that section ("I meant the story itself, not its elements.") should probably be edited to be more consistent with the impersonal tone of the rest of the page: "We meant the story itself, not its elements." The closing sentence, too, should probably be edited: "That's the bad kind of making no sense." Honestly, this whole section could probably be removed. It's a tad unnecessary now that I think about it.


 * Anytime, although maybe don't actually remove it. It might just need to be re-written/fleshed out more. LOLSKELETONS (talk) 03:28, October 22, 2019 (UTC)


 * Also, do you think you could unlock my last talk page archive? I just noticed I couldn't edit it, lol. LOLSKELETONS (talk) 03:42, October 22, 2019 (UTC)


 * I undid the protection for ya. ClericofMadness (talk) 04:25, October 22, 2019 (UTC)

hi, im Lauren. how are you?

hi, im Lauren. how are you?

After Dark
Hello Sir,

You recently deleted a page that shares the same name as my message heading. I was hoping you could (if it's not too much trouble) direct me to the original author. Searching 'after dark' gave me way too many results to sift through, as I'm sure you can imagine.

Kolpik (talk) 21:13, October 25, 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks. Much appreciated. :)

Nobody likes my stories?
I recently noticed that a lot of people who were outside of this wiki didnt enjoyed the idea of my story that much. Like, what's wrong with having a second mind of your own?

(Inspired by irl vents)

edit: still waiting

RE: Templates
Thank you for fixing that, I literally forget how to format things like that EVERY single time I post, lmao XD I was just sitting here like "what did I do wrong this time..."

I appreciate your patience with me--you have a great day too!

Guess who's back
Hey hey, Empy! I decided to scrap my original creepypasta and hop back on to ask something.

So, Banning had rewritten the Jeffverse of stories, right? Well, I came to propose a rewrite of the Sonic.exe story. HOLD IT, don't shut me down just yet. I know gaming creepypastas are pretty shitty, but my plan is to take out as many cliches as I can and build on top of what I make from that. It's not just gonna be "haunted gaem creepy killer doll man murders boio in home oooh spoopy". No. It's gonna start out involving the "game" (yes there will be a few aspects of the old story left in, it's hard to rewrite a story from complete scratch.) and then it'll slowly evolve into the protagonist documenting his experiences even after destroying the disc. Do you think if I'm able to salvage the story, I could get approval to post it?

LionPrince13 (talk) 01:12, November 6, 2019 (UTC)

Thanks
I'll try to find JC on deviantart or something. Hopefully nothing weird happens, lmao.

LionPrince13 (talk) 01:40, November 6, 2019 (UTC)

That was a bust
So, all my attempts were worthless. Sonic.exe can't be salvaged even with competence in mind- So.. I'm probably gonna go back to planning out my original creepypasta and get to writing it a while later. Looking forward to the day when my own CP is finally able to be posted.

LionPrince13 (talk) 02:39, November 6, 2019 (UTC)

Hey
Yo, Empy, it's Princey again. Quick question. I plan on writing an original creepypasta about my character Ethaniel Claude, who gets pulled into an occult ritual performed by his delusional paranormally obsessed mother, and becomes infected by the slowly evolving mind of a demon known as Dusk. It'll gradually build up to Dusk overtaking Ethan's body, adapting to the new host, and killing Ethan's mother with Ethan still halfway conscious before the end of the story where Dusk fully takes over, and leaves the town. Is there anything I should change or edit about this plot? I wanted to give this type of story a more emotionally painful route with the main character and his eventual slavery to the demon that controls him. Lemme know if this is a possible creepypasta plot, and tell me what I should change. Thanks!

LionPrince13 (talk) 02:16, November 9, 2019 (UTC)

Hello, It was brought to my attention that my attempt at a story "shots in the snow" was removed by you. It was my first time on the page so I didn't know that the "save page" button would publish it(I don't remember the name of the button) I am sending this because I wanted to know if there was any way I could get the story back. Thank you for reading this. P.S. Can you give me feedback regarding the opening scene if you can remember it?

Narration Take Downs
Hey boss,

When you have a minute, could you take down the Majestic Production narration on the A Figure in the Fog page? Videos been dropped off youtube so its a broken link. Also, the Creepy Ghost Stories one was taken down and then reuploaded. New link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4NkLjkiDp8 Thanks!

I have a question about getting my story accepting, I’m still a little confused, do I have to make a starry on paste bin and put a link to it? How do I send you to my story? And I don’t know how to sign it.

Hi. How do you move images in a story? I'm working on a story called pictures of the asylum and I want different pictures in different parts. I couldn't find a solution somewhere else. Sorry if I'm wasting your time. Green Keaton (talk) 19:03, November 14, 2019 (UTC)

Question
Lemniscate64, I read your creepypasta Necrosleep, first of all I loved it, and because of it I’m currently in the making of a website and wondered if you would be cool if I actually used the Nocturnal Underground name for it, I didn’t know if I needed to ask you but to be safe I’m asking MightyOne990 (talk) 23:24, November 15, 2019 (UTC)

Yeah, just give me a copy and leave it in my message board. I'm sorry, it was terrible. But, maybe, tell me the worst part so I can work on it.

Thanks
This is my first creepypaste, so yeah it could have been better. I think yeah the crew should have found the body, it is a little rushed. Well, thanks again.

A message
You deleted my page! Your fucking wiki doesn't deserve my artwork, you ignorant motherfuckers! I'm going to another wiki better than this shit! Fuck you all! I spent the whole afternoon writing that shit and you delete it? Fuck you, you fucking bitch who doesn't understand art! Restore my page now or I'll vandalize this shit, got it? Or at least send me a copy of my story for me to publish in shit better than that, you little fag who can't enjoy art.

Been meaning to ask you this: why can't we ask for ideas? I mean, other than the story wouldn't be original and unique. ( I know how stupid this sounds, I'm Just curious.)

Update on pasta reviews?
Hey again,

I really don't want to sound impatient, but could I have an update on how the reviewing of my pastas is going? It's been a couple of months now, and so far, only two of them have been taken off the 'marked for review' category. Since then, nothing else seems to have taken place. I'm getting slightly worried it's just come to a standstill. Are you still in the process of checking for copyrighted content? The way you made it sound in your last message, there were many people working on the issue. Is it the same now as it was before?

I'm not asking you to give me a specific date, but a rough estimate of when exactly this is going to be complete would be useful. I mean, my shortest pasta is only 300 words, surely it can't take that long to investigate? Or are you working on the longest ones first to get them out of the way? I plan to still be active on this wiki, but it's gotten an little difficult knowing almost all my pastas have been stuck in purgatory for the last 9 weeks.

Please get back to me about this as soon as possible.

Invitation to join the advisor program
Hello! I'm Sannse, from Fandom's Editor Experience team. I'm contacting you as the most recently active admin. Hopefully you can pass this on to others as needed.

One project that we're excited about launching is an initiative to pair newly registered users with experienced advisors (which they can choose from). These advisors would be available for answering basic editing questions and guiding appropriate edits, in the hope that these users will become active in the local community.

Why do this, rather than rely on admins and moderators? We've seen from research and experience (both from Wikipedia) that establishing a human bond with a peer "senpai" or mentor can have a better effect on the comfort of the newcomer, especially where the high volume of edits may cause the quick response of rollbacks rather than taking the time to walk new editors through their early work. While some communities do take that time and care among their leaders, we feel an additional level might put new users at ease and help them be more comfortable with editing. Ultimately, we feel like this project will either free up some time for admins and moderators, or designate them as approachable welcomers to talk to and guide new users. We want to see how effective this is on a relatively small number of communities and see if Fandom's results are consistent with those experienced on Wikipedia. If they are, we may pursue expanding the pilot program and perhaps seeking to build it into a core part of the new platform.

Here's what we would wish for your community to agree to:


 * At least one volunteer advisor, acting as an advisor and advocate helping newcomers. For the most part, this means responding to questions that newcomers leave the advisor in Discussions. Sometimes this may mean the advisor interacts with admins and moderators to address concerns regarding the newcomer. We have some advisors-at-large (those not tied to the local community, but available as fallbacks) already, but if you have ideas on who you might want to represent you in this role (or if you'd like to do so yourself!), feel free to contact me on my Wall.


 * Discussions / Feeds. Your community must have this active for the current solution to work. This is the primary method in which advisors have open communication with the users that choose them. We also recommend a Feeds channel of “Help Desk” where the communications can be placed, if you do not have a similar channel.


 * A change to your Welcome Messages to allow a method where a newcomer can choose an advisor. If you are currently participating in the MyDashboard program, there will be a card there to interact with an advisor.

We are testing this for the next two months, and will see what the future of the program is thereafter. Is this a program you would feel comfortable with placing on your community? -- Sannse (help forum | blog) 00:26, December 15, 2019 (UTC)

 * I understand, and I've done some editing that will hopefully prevent it from being marked that way again. I'm sorry to bother you. Thank you, and have a good one! Also, good luck with the vet stuff! :-) Raidra (talk) 16:08, December 25, 2019 (UTC)

I hope all has been well with you, been a long time! Been up to anything interesting? I've mostly just been working and sleeping, lol.

Uploading Pastas?
With what is currently occurring with my account, I was wondering what the process is for uploading new pastas. If I upload a pasta, will it be instantly put on the marked for review page? (I'm not talking about the QS, I'm talking about the whole plagiarism deal). The specific pasta I am asking for is the one that is currently on the Writer's Workshop, which you have commented on in your last message on my talk page. Considering that you mentioned that using the prompt was 'not unethical', would the story be cleared from the get-go, or would you still have to go through the same process as all the others?

Posting Stories

 * Hi, it's me again.

I'm here because i would like to ask for authorization to do something.

There are quite a few creepypastas that i know off that don't seem to be posted here. I would love the opportunity to post these stories here and make these personal favorites of mine more well known. I've seen others do it here before so i presume it's okay. But i just wanted to confirm that you guys are okay with it.

And all the while giving credit to the original authors, of course.

OmniFrieza994 (talk) 15:56, January 10, 2020 (UTC)

Also i'd like to apologize for the whole User category thing. I didn't know about it. It's just that most wikias have it and i presumed this one did as well. OmniFrieza994 (talk) 15:41, January 11, 2020 (UTC)
