Welcome!

Hello, Connielover101, and welcome to the Adventures in Odyssey Wiki! Thank you for any contributions that you have made or will make. If you need help, check out our welcome page or the town hall, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome; I hope you like the place and decide to stay! Erwin Springer [talk] 21:41, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

DO NOT do that

First off, that was a very immature thing for you to do to vandalize the main page with your question. This is a semi-professional Adventures in Odyssey website, and for you to leave your question on the main page, the most visited page on this website, makes AIOWiki look VERY unprofessional. For another thing, you should know that you could have left your question on right here your talk page, or AT LEAST at the Town Hall. The fact that you left it on the Main Page, makes me think that you probably did not really want to know the answer to your question, but that you wanted to get attention or cunduct a trivia contest. The Main Page of AIOWiki is NOT the place to conduct triva contests.

I am sorry to inform you that there is a good chance that you will be banned from editing the AIOWiki for at least 3 months. Vandalism like that is just not acceptable and since there is the potential that you will do something like this again, the Administrators will probably block you from editing so that it doesn't happen again. If they don't block you this time, please do not vandalize pages again, of they will be forced to ban you from editing. If you choose not to do something like this again, I thank you in advance. If you choose to repeat your previous action, I am sorry that you made that choice and you will have to face the consequences. By the way, since, according to your contributions page, you have not edited anything else, it is even more probable that you won't be able to edit again. Thank you for reading this and I hope you understand.

P.S. Jarad DeWhite doesn't ever leave the town of Odyssey on the show. He disappears briefly from the town and the Adventures in Odyssey show after episode 429: "The Y.A.K. Problem". His last appearance as a main character was in episode 544: "Split Ends". He reappears briefly in episode 638: "The Triangled Web, Part 1".

You wont be blocked, that's only for vandalism which is repetitive or spams to other sites. Basically, the Main Page is a high-traffic page and things like that don't belong there. Don't feel too bad though, as I see you did this in good faith. If you need help with anything here, don't hesitate to ask, just do it here or here not on the main page. :) Erwin Springer [talk] 03:33, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

PLEASE FORGIVE ME! I DIDN'T KNOW!

Dear AIOwiki, I am SO SORRY! I didn't know. I didn't know were to leave my question. I am practiaclly in tears. I feel so bad. I promise I will never do that again. PLEASE DON"T BAN ME! I love this webiste so much! It has helped me a lot. I just didn't know enough about the website enough. Like I said, I will never do that again. I didn't know it was wrong. Please forgive me. Write back soon so I know it is ok. If you have to ban me, though, I will understand why. Just please please please forgive me. I HAD NO IDEA!

So Sorry,

User:Connielover101

Please don't feel horrible! Marvin, came down way to hard on you! Most of the world doesn't know how a wiki works, so you're with most of the population. :) You are far from being banned. Erwin Springer [talk] 13:57, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you so much! I feel so much better now. Also, Thank you for answering my question, it was very helpful. And once more, I will never do that agian.

Dear Connielover101,

I am sorry that I came down so hard on you. When I first wrote that, I wasn’t thinking as clear as I should have been. After I was done and off the computer I thought to myself, “I could probably have been a little gentler in what I said.” But I was not in the position at the time to get back on and change what I said. After you had commented it was too late to do anything about it, and I saw that what I said was indeed too harsh.

The reason why I said what I said was that I thought that you possibly posted your question there on the Main Page for fun, or to be annoying. Why would I think that? Well, I think (and correct me if I’m wrong, Erwin) that there was a user by the name of Cryin’ Bryan Dern the jerk who was once blocked because he was being repeatedly annoying and doing things the administrators didn’t want him to do. I thought that there was a possibility that that might be the same case here: someone doing some thing to get attention or for fun. So in a way I was kind of trying to warn you not to do that again lest there be consequences. The fact that you said, “I have been wanting to know this for a long time” should have been evidence enough for me that I was wrong in what I thought. I foolishly failed to take into account the fact that you probably did not know how to edit a wiki. I really am sorry and I hope you can forgive my ignorance. I really appreciate the fact that you want to help out on the wiki! We need all the help we can get. :) Once again I apologize for treating you so badly. I should have known better. At least now I have learned a lesson in jumping to conclusions. Thanks for your understanding. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to… uh…ask Erwin! (he knows everything!):)

Dear MarvelousMarvin,

Of course I will forgive you like you forgave me. I have jumped ot conlusions too. Thanks for the info too!

Connielover101 16:49, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem. :) Glad to help. MarvelousMarvin 18:41, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

Cryin' Bryan Dern the Jerk was never banned. We had a few incidents, but it was more of the fact that he didn't quite know what the wiki was for. Erwin Springer [talk] 22:26, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Help Me

I was wondering if the character Mark appears in the third collection of aio novels? Or does the character Patti?

Connielover101 01:13, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Nope. Niether one appears in that third collection. MarvelousMarvin 14:45, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. Connielover101 14:47, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

I was wondering if you had a list of all the love story episodes Odyssey has produced on your website. Connielover101 22:59, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

That would be something cool to make, but I'm afraid we don't have that right now. Sorry to disappoint you. MarvelousMarvin 05:13, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank's anyway. If I were to make one though, where would I put it? And how would I construct it? Or should I just leave that to the pros?

Connielover101 15:13, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure. If you want, go ahead and start compiling a list of the episodes and post them here on your talk page. Then ask Erwin on his talk page what he wants to do with the list. MarvelousMarvin 17:55, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

You can create one by adding "| genre = Love Story" to the infobox of all of the appropriate episode pages. Erwin Springer [talk] 22:26, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Ok. Thanks. I might do that. Connielover101 23:23, 1 February 2010 (UTC)P. S. What would be an appropriate episode page?

On all of the "love story episodes" as you mentioned. Erwin Springer [talk] 00:06, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Oh, Gotcha now. Didn't get it at first. Thanks!Connielover101 15:43, 2 February 2010 (UTC) P. S. Is there an episode when Jenny W. is thought to be murdered. Becuase I know she dies with cancer, but in a flash back in an album, they say something about Jenny W. being murdered I thought.Connielover101 15:43, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

I've listened to almost all the episodes and I don't remember anything about Jenny Whittaker(I assume that's who your talking about) being murdered. MarvelousMarvin 17:22, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

It was in the episode "The Mortal Coil Parts 1 and 2" when Whit gets a flash back of his wife. A newsreporter says something about Jenny Whittaker being killed I thought. Oh well. Thanks for your help. Connielover101 00:19, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

That's referring to his son, Jerry, who died in the Vietnam war. Erwin Springer [talk] 01:08, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Oh gotcha. Thanks. Connielover101 15:05, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

P. S. You need to put pictures of the new odyssey characters on your websites and the old characters new pictures. :)(see whitsend.org) Connielover101 15:05, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

We would, but o get those images someone would have to email Nathan Hoobler and ask him to email the images to us. It would work to get them directly from whitsend.org. I don't know if Nathan Hoobler would give the images to us. And another problem is that I don't have his email address, so somebody like Reddo or Erwin would have to do it.

I was wondering if there was a way I could make aiowiki.com my homepage? That would be awesome! Connielover101 20:14, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

I odn't know what you mean. MarvelousMarvin 15:52, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

I mean like when you open your internet and your search engine comes up (google, yahoo, etc.)-could you have aiowiki come up instead? Connielover101 15:56, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

I have no idea how to do that. Though I am sure there's a way. MarvelousMarvin 16:52, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Do you use a PC or a Mac computer? If you use a PC go click the "Tools" tab at the top of your browser. Then click on "options" at the bottom. A window will come up and at the top of that windo you should be able to type in aiowiki.com for your home page. Let me know if it works. MarvelousMarvin 19:05, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Administrator

Dear MarvelousMarvin,

I was wondering if you were an administer of aiowiki. You sould be if you aren't-you know a lot about AIO. :)

Connielover101 21:20, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Haha! :) Well thanks for the compliment but no, I am not an administrator. You can see a list of all the administrators here. I do not really think that I am qualified to be an administrator. It takes a lot more qualification than just knowing a lot about AIO. Some of those qualifications are:

1. You have to know a lot of HTML (that basically means how to write in code), and I don't know that much html.
2. You have to have good leadership skills. I don't really think I have those skills as proven by my treatment of you when you first arrived.
3. You have to be trustworthy. While I have been on the wiki for about a year and a half, I am not on the ToO or anywhere else. No one has my email address or any thing like that. No one has anyway to contact me other than through here. Since I am not anywhere else in the internet world, I do not think it would be prudent to promote me to an administrator.
4. You probably got to have a fast computer and internet, and I don't have either one. I use dial up.
5. When you're an administrator people tend to come to you with problems. I don't know how to deal with those problems.
6. There is not need for me to be an administrator. When you are an administrator, your only "official" rights are that you can edit pages that are restricted to normal users and that you can ban people who do vandalism. You can also revert that vandalism. Right now there are three administrators who are active and there's really no need for a another one on a wiki as small as this.
7. I'm not as qualified as some people like Stop Wooton Around, who are administrators on other wikis.
8. Besides, if I were an administrator, who would I admnistrate? Myself? Sometimes there's not very much activity here accept for the administrators, me, and a few other people. So if I became one, there would be occasions where there would be no one to administrate.

I'm hope that answers your question. If you have any more don't hesitate to ask. MarvelousMarvin 15:52, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks you! But, if the webisted ever gets any bigger, you should be one. You should be all practiced up on odyssey by then. :)

Connielover101 15:58, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

P. S. Is this website national or international?

I believe that you can access it from anywhere in the world (except places like China which would probably think we were some bad website) though I've never tried it. MarvelousMarvin 16:51, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! And, maybe I'll ask Erwin about the mainpage thing. But I have another question! :) Is there a certain time the offical podcast is supposed to come out? Or does it just come out randomly? Connielover101 16:56, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

It used to come out every other week back when they did only audio podcasts. When they do video podcasts they tend to do them whenever, and skip the audio podcasts. Lately they have been more random and sparadic. MarvelousMarvin 18:06, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I thought I'd straighten a few things out about the site and being an admin, first you don't have to know html to be an admin, it just happens by change that the 3 of us know some. the 2nd and 3rd points are correct but you don't have to be on any other site here is enough just be a regular editor that we see can be trusted, you don't need a fast inernet connection or computer either to be an admin. and the remaining points are right.

next about the website, we are international, since i set up usage tracking in the fall of 2008 we've been visited by people in 117 different countries, (including China), and as for the podcast it comes out every other week usually sometime between Tuesday and Wednesday evening Reddo 18:58, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm only a Cheif editor on an unknown wiki. I'm too young anyways. I'm only 14. I also don't really have enough edits to be considered an admin. I almost have 3,000. Stop Wooton Around 23:34, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

I've left the instructions for changing your homepage futher up on this page. I'm sure you can find it. MarvelousMarvin 05:32, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for all your help everyone! That is awesome you're international. Reddo, you are a fantastic administer (I have seen your edits etc.), and Stop Wooton Around, you should be an adminster when your old enough, (I have seen your posts too)! Also, awesome accomplishment on the edit #. And last, thanks for info about the homepage thing. i will try it and let you know if it works.

Thanks again to everyone!

Connielover101 00:24, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

P. S. MarvelousMarvin, it worked! Thanks! Connielover101 00:30, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Why is...

I was wondering why the FUN-damentals album is on the new releases section of the main page? That was released a long time ago-wasn't it?

Just Wondering,

Connielover101 17:13, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

It's getting re-released without the gold audio title and with a colored background like album 15-50 are Reddo 17:33, 24 February 2010 (UTC)

By the way, questions like this might be better posted in the Town Hall. God Bless ~ Nate ~ Talk

Okay....thanks. So, it's not going to be a gold audio set anymore? Gotcha, Natedute34....next time I will most likely do that! :) Connielover101 02:45, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

right, the gold audio series is dead and being replaced as stock runs out to just be normal albums to look like 16-50 Reddo 03:28, 28 February 2010 (UTC)

Oh, ALL of the Gold audio's are? Connielover101 16:02, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

right gold audio series 1 - 15 are being replaced with non-gold versions, see here for expected release dates Reddo 17:36, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Shouldn't....

The Main page of AIOwiki says that the new Dariens Rise Book Cover is coming out in April....but I see it in stores now. Shouldn't you change that? Connielover101 15:19, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
