Meets
I have created a simple Page about Meets. I felt it is time to open this subject, but I don't plan to get too involved at this stage- we have Cats, then Stubs to sort out first. However, I have contacted Luis, who has agreed to help us. Meets should be a significant part of Wikigrounds, linking to people and other events. There are oodles of pix of people, along with video links etc, which will establish the Newgrounders as a community of real people and boost our pages of Users a whole lot over time. Meet info can be used to Destub Users, by providing pix and info. We can make a Section of Meets for anyone who has been to one and has pix etc. Now, back to Cats...
Moderator?
Sorry, this might be a bit disturbing to a few people, especially one recent new editor, but I have been examining the new category of Icon and Genre moderator and I am now asking the question: Despite their title, are these people really Moderators and will the general public really think of them as Notable enough to automatically qualify for a Page here? I have always questioned the Notability of Moderators anyway, happily removing peoples pages when they cease to be mods. As I look into Icon Mods and find they don't Moderate anything, they just make and upload pix, they are no more Noteable than the volunteers who edit the official Wiki, despite their yellow background. Gnere Mods are not much different.
However, would we really not p…
Celebrities!
We just had an edit by Bahamut! He saw my invitation post on the BBS and came to look at our Stat Whores page. He added and improved a lot. He then PM'ed me.
This is great. Bah is way up there. This year we have had views and edits from:
Milinko, Wade, LittleRena, Bahamut, XwaynecoltX and Liljim. Our wiki has been discussed by Tom on his Newgrounds wiki thread and we are really getting noticed. Get out there guys and talk about us. If you can submit a promotional flash, do so. Use your Secret to advertise us, put it in your sig, on your page etc etc. We want to reach a point where the wiki is going to live and grow every day as long as Newgrounds does.
Go for it!
Cats?
I am sorry if I haven't been able to contribute that much to Cats. I know how frustrating it seems if other editors only do a token ammount on the Monthly Theme and spend more time on other things. However, my problem is that I have no vision of how Cats should be and how they might be used. I hardly ever use them on any wiki and I can't picture people using them. I can't really grasp why we want to have sub cats and then list each item seperately in the major cat as well. Although I have made some comments, I am quite happy for the cat work to be done how you guys want it. If you guys have a clear plan/image in your minds of how you want it to be then please - spell it out and inspire me.
We must end the month with a clear result each…
