Village Pump (technical): New Users
What were your first impressions when you came to this Wiki?
What were the hardest parts? Where would you have needed more help?
This is the place to leave your feedback and recommendations, and where we can discuss how to make that step into the Wiki-World a bit less scary...
//// I love the site design. It's clean and not overloaded with information and images that I don't need. I guess the main issue for people who have no Wiki experience is figuring out how it works. I remember my first time to Wikipedia.com and I could not believe you could actually edit articles.
//// Well it is scary per say when you first come, its hard to find your place at first! After that I think if you watch what other people post and edit, you can become a major contributer! This place has alot of potential. ~~Sniper Pilot
//// In my point of view the site is clean and asking for real fans of the game and the community, which is pretty large already, to help getting a nice wiki to show off. I think it is important to give some explanation or link to wikipedia.com about editing itself. Also, I like the idea of involving newbies in getting things done here, even if it is little. Like the village pump picture, for example. So, let's move, comrades! ;o)
- To familiarize yourself with the wiki, try the following places:
- The "Help" link in the menu will has some examples and other links to more in-depth articles
- There is a public "sandbox" where you can experiment with wiki code
- Once your account is set up you should also have a private sandbox for experimenting and storing unfinished content. If you have an account, but no sandbox yet, ask a sysop to set one up for you.
