ALL POSTSPublic Service Announcment - RP's and Wiki Pages
<p>Many of you have seen Mevans' latest blog post. He critisized the overuse of RP's on this wiki, and the underuse of the actual wiki content. To start with, I do <i>not</i> think that RP's should be removed, as they do bring more people here. However, all the people on the RP's need to do more than be on the RP's. Many of you would say that if you weren't on the RP's, you wouldn't be on the wiki. This is a perfectly valid concern, as I know that many of you would not know what to do if you weren't participating in RP's. I would like to have a solution to this problem. Much of the wiki is inconsistent, even with our greatest efforts to conform it. We need a system to tell wiki users what to do, and a way to harness all the energy we have on the RP's to other places.
</p><p><i>Disclaimer: This post in no way is intended to put down RP's or say that you should not/can not use them. RP's give our Mods work. However, we would like to promote wiki use outside of the RP's, as they are currently getting more traffic than the suggestions forum.</i>

<p>Another thing to add:
</p><p>Many poeple are timid when editing. Know this: It is a wiki, so if you mess up, it will be fixed. That is why it is a wiki.

<p>Re-adding the interactive map would be nice, then I would know what biomes are near eachother.

(Edited by A Fandom user)
<p>The interactive map is there. Check out the <span style="color:gold">Biomes</span> page, and you should find it.

<p>You could add more canon information to the pages.
</p><p>We should make a list of current possible projects to work on.

I don't edit very much because I can't think of what to edit.

Handles sometimes uses this "marked for review"-template <table style="margin: 0 auto; border-radius:80px; background-color: #ff6633; border: 4px solid #333333"><tr><td>
</td><td> <center>This Article/Section is Marked for Review!</center>
<p style="text-align:center">This article needs to be edited to comply with our wiki's standards.
Please fix its grammar and/or add more content.
<i><small>After you fix this article, please remove this template.</small></i></p> </td><td>
</td></tr></table><p>. There is just one flaw with this: I don't know why the article should be reviewed, so a reason (as parameter) should be added to that template (if possible). You can search all the pages with this template on it. I think this would be a good possibility to bring people to pages that need to be worked on.
