Welcome messages

Please don't put welcome messages on new users' talk pages. Leave that to the admins. Scientific Guy (talk / AIOC Episode Timeline) 18:36, 29 January 2018 (MST)

Oh,sorry. I didn't know that. I'll stop. ConnieKendall fan! talk (Guestbook) 20:34, 29 January 2018 (MST)

I should also apologize, as that was rather rash of me to say that without explanation. As it happens, there are also some other things I need to say. As you are a new user here, you need to understand when to assert yourself and when not to. I'm not mad or anything, and asserting yourself is good sometimes! But telling new users "Hello" or "How can I help you?" is not in your area to do. For example, Rachel Maxwell asked about Character naming, and you answered her with an answer that may or may not be correct. As administrators, OdysseyFan, Rachel, and I should answer, and you should ask. I hope you understand.

Also, could you put nosubst| (just like that) after the {{SUBST: in your signature in preferences? I had to change it because it was causing small issues. Thanks! Scientific Guy (talk / AIOC Episode Timeline) 15:43, 1 February 2018 (MST)

Some of My Fanfiction

I know i'm not a very good writer, but i'm going to put this in anyway. I thought maybe someone would like it.

Suddenly, the room was filled with a bright white light. It engulfed the entire room with it's cheery glow. Connie was amazed by it all, but the two siblings looked as if they had seen it all before. Little did Connie know that they were traveling to Marus. All of a sudden they found themselves in The Territory Of Peace. "Ok, time out! Tell me what's happening!" Said Connie. "What would you like to know?" asked Kyle. "How do you both know who I am and why am I here?" "We know your name because the Unseen One has revealed it to us. And you are here because the Unseen One has chosen you. Look in my pocket mirror, it's already happening." Anna said. Connie looked in the mirror and gasped. "M-my eyes! What's happened to them?!" "The ones chosen by the Unseen One receive eyes of different colors. One eye is green, the other is blue." Said Kyle. "I don't understand. What's going on?" "We must go to King Darien." Said Anna. Suddenly, as if by magic, Connie knew where she was. She didn't know how she knew but she just knew. Maybe the mention of Darien's name sparked something deep within her. Or maybe God told her. "We are in Marus, aren't we?" She asked. "Ah, The Unseen One is giving you your powers. You shall receive more powers soon though." Said Anna. "Is the Unseen One like God?" Connie asked. "He is God. Jesus is His name in our world. In this world, He is called by the name of The Unseen One." 

So anyway that's it. If you want to say what you think of it, please be completely honest. I can accept both praise and criticism on my books. Oh, and please take the opportunity to sign my guestbook!ConnieKendall fan! talk (Guestbook)

Help

When i put talk page stuff in archives, do i delete what i put in archives from the talk page? or do i leave it the way it is? Don't wanna ruin it.

Yes you delete it off the talk page. It is an "archive" of old talk. You only really need to archive your talk page when it becomes too long. I've seen others that just do it once a year, so in the archive them have a page for each year. Aiow 20:59, 11 February 2018 (MST)

Re: Thank you so much!

I’m an author as well and am in the middle of writing two books. one is titled “A Collection of Humorous Dossiers Chronicling the Diabolical and Evil Plot of the Deer, the other is “Bad Food 2: Worse Food”. The deer plot is to eat all the flowers in the world, doing so by shipping themselves out in John Deere tractors. I’ll send you a link to the dossiers. I also self-manage a newspaper called the Graceful Times. It’s for my grandmother’s women’s group, Ladies of Grace. I originally wrote the dossiers as a space-filler for the newspaper. Enjoy!

The reason why i'm hyper is I have this weird thingamajigger disorder whatever which adds about 5,000,000% more energy, and I can't pay attention and I have this little problem with remembering things.

Re: To Do

Yes, if you go to Special:WantedCategories you will see over 1000 categories that need to be created. Most need a template added to them. If you want to work on those, first go to your preferences > gadgets and check Mabel under editing gadgets. Mabel automatically adds templates to category pages. If Mabel doesn't automatically create them, you can look at a similar category to see how it should be created.

If this is doesn't intrigue you, I also started going through the documentaries. There are several actors that appeared on the documentaries that do not have articles yet. When I create an actor page, I always see if I can locate a photo to add. I stopped at Don't Look Down. Also, see Phil Vischer as an example of a newly created actor page. Images are also categorized, so see the image on this page as an example.

One other task that should be fairly easy, but monotonous is recently the infobox staff has been updated for links to different sites to be included. Thus, links for most cast and crew needs to be moved up into the infobox. Flo Di Re is an example of the old method and Janna Arnold is an example of the new method.

Re: Things to Do, Part 3

Writing those plotlines sounds like an excellent idea! Even if you don't feel like you can write well, the point of any wiki or Wikipedia is the collaborative effort. Whatever you write will eventually be reviewed and edited by someone. If I get a chance, I will indeed read over them, but no worries if I don't get to them immediately because eventually, someone will. Adding items such as plotlines provides content to the wiki, which is more than what I usually do. I mostly get pages started, create categories and upload images, but we need good editors like yourself to add information on those pages. Best of luck and Happy Easter!

Dear AIOWiki,

I've enjoyed AIOWiki very much. With 850+ edits and a constantly edited user page, I've had my share of fun. But I'm afraid my fun has to come to an end. I really wish this didn't have to happen, but I have to resign from AIOWiki. After this final session, I won't be coming on anymore. Have fun editing, and so long.

Re: Questions

So for some reason, you have to "publish" polls for them to show rather than just the text. Check your page you were creating a poll and make sure you can also see it.

I am not sure if they had a specific reason for Connie not marrying Mitch. Sometimes availability of an actor will force events and other times the writers just decide not to develop a storyline. Perhaps like real life, the relationship just didn't work out for Connie at that time in her life. Who knows, Connie may still get married, yet. I mean if they made a love interest for Wooton, why not? Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 21:36, 8 April 2018 (MDT)

Usually, users will only become admins when there is a need for them. For example, I become an admin at a time in which the wiki needed extra people who could block users and delete pages due to excess spam. When that time arises, usually Reddo makes the decision as to who becomes an admin. Generally, Reddo is looking for users that are active, make smart edits and will not abuse their power. Keep editing and learning. I wasn't made an admin until after 2 years of activity and most of the time I don't use my admin powers. Almost all of my activity, other than deleting pages, is the same as other users. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 22:50, 12 April 2018 (MDT)

Um, not exactly sure as to what you are referencing, but have a guess. If I click on Page information on my user page, I see a User ID of 220. Likewise, your page information states you have a user ID of 1538 and User:Shadowpaw has a user ID of 1. This leads me to believe the user ID is the number in which you become a user. Shadowpaw is certainly the first user, I would be the 220th and you would be the 1538th. As far as to what it is used for is probably backend, database stuff. So somewhere is a giant table information about our username, when we joined, our rights, etc. is stored and then displayed at different spots in the wiki. The User ID would be used as unique identifiers of our usernames, thus in another table within the database we are probably referred to as our number and not our potentially long name.

P.S. That is my guess and probably way too technical. Stop Wooton' Around (talk) 23:07, 12 April 2018 (MDT)

Quick Tip

I should have mentioned this sooner, but on talk pages and discussion use the semicolon to indent your response. i.e. It should look like this: Hello.

Hello.

My Name is Stop Wooton Around.

Nice to meet you, my name is Conniekendall fan.

And the wiki text should look like this:

Hello.

:Hello.

::My Name is Stop Wooton Around.

:::Nice to meet you, my name is Conniekendall fan.
