Welcome to the ROBLOX Wiki!
Hello, welcome to the ROBLOX wiki. Congrats. :D There are several things you should know about the wiki before you start messing up, which I did lots of. :D First of all, the wiki uses a combination of HTML, and a specialized markup language. To learn more about it, you can visit:
Please limit your images (personal) to a limited amount. Also, try to avoid using wiki images in your games, because the wiki has a limited server relative to what uploaded ROBLOX images use. However, images in articles are a good idea. It's suggested that you look at the editing rules too. However, the when writing articles, (I personally) would like you too...
- Add lots of links that relate
- Add a See also at the end.
The wiki should become easier to navigate, which is mostly the point of the above things.
Some people like to use/make signatures. You can do this, by editing your signature in your Preferences. The default signature has your name, with an autolink. By unchecking "Treat signature as wikitext (without an automatic link)", you can put in your own signature. Most users like to make theirs fancy, something you can't do with Wikipedia. However, since this is a small wiki, we can. Feel free to create your own fancy signature, however, do not:
- Use images in your signature
- Make it massive/oversized
It is also suggested that you sign all your posts with your signature. To do this, you use 4 tildes, ~~~~, for a timestamp, or 3 tildes, ~~~, for no time stamp. Your signature should always have a timestamp. You must always sign your posts on talk pages, and never sign your name on articles. When talking on talk pages, indent your response posts using ':'.
For more complex usage of signatures, see Roblox Wiki:Signatures.
Have fun editing the wiki, I look forward to your contributions! (Sorry for any fail spelling, etc.) - Quenty (talk • January 16)
Your signature
Erm. Your signature is kind of messed up. The way you have it set up, it will automatically update the date, so it will say you posted in whatever the current date is. - Quenty (talk • January 16)
- I "fixed" it, on the Shagabash/sig page; but when I posted the template, the date got messed up, as you can see:
- Nevermind, just fixed it. That's what I get for copy and pasting. My only problem now is forgetting to post my siggy.
Signature setup
Pretty sure you're doing it wrong. For one, your sig page contains the date typed in manually!
It really is easy. Check out Roblox_Wiki:Signatures.
- Thanks, I'm actually updating it as we speak. Let's see if this works.
- Yep, you're good to go! Well done.
- Haha, yup. I actually took someone else's and edited it a bunch though. ;)
- Heck, all the ones like this stemmed from my design anyway, from October 2010 - [1]
