Yes, if you know of a popular RPG on scratch (such as on a gallery or something), you can create an article, but it should end with "(RPG)"  wink

Hmm. Well that was in order to recieve that password - I thought you were referring to the new password to the account, like the default password. Perhaps it was my misunderstanding.... sorry.

It's OK ^^ My initial post wasn't very clear - I can see how you got confused.

Re: The Scratch Wiki

Great job to all of the editors! I like all of the new articles, as they are all going very well, and are building great.

Re: The Scratch Wiki

May I have an account on this Scratch Wiki? My 2 answers to the 2 questions are the following:
1)I think it would be very fun to help out the Scratch Community and make new pages on the wiki.
2)I would make new pages on the wiki and fix mistakes (such as spelling errors and incorrect information). I will also help out other people making pages on the wiki.

Re: The Scratch Wiki

I find it kind of disappointing that no one was put up any guides or tutorials yet. I'll probably put one up later next week but it would be good to have a few such articles and a "guides and tutorials" category.

Groups are allowed also - but aritcles on groups and RPGs are only allowed if the group/RPG has more than one person and has created at least one project.  smile

I still don't get why we're keeping group and RPG articles when there's only one supporter and three non-supporters.  hmm

A lot of Scratchers are probably going to create articles on all their little groups and RPGs... they probably won't follow the restrictions, anyway.

Re: The Scratch Wiki

An idea: Because the RPG articles wanted are the popular ones, make an article that lists popular RPGs!  big_smile

But RPGs are?  hmm
Meh... they should at least share an article; the existing ones aren't long anyway.

There's only two articles about two of the most popular RPGs.

Four supporters against articles on groups and RPGs and only one for them... why are we going with the one person's opinion instead of the majority? Yeah, it's Andrés that wants the articles, but isn't he just as high on the wiki as everyone else?  hmm

That would be awesome! I've been waiting for the time you get to write tutorials. They would be a big hit. We have a lot of documentation to get people started with basic stuff but not much with more advanced topics such as your famous scrolling background techniques.

It will not go "mad". We will not have a wiki where half of the articles are about only one specific thing  wink  I suggest not crowding this thread and using the Wiki Talk Pages to have content-specific discussions. If you want to read more about what I've written about this go to this talk page.

Re: The Scratch Wiki

It's not a bug... it's intentional. To get an account, you request on this topic - by requesting to have an account instead of just making one, we can be sure that the user tigerstripe on the wiki is the same tigerstripe on the Scratch Forums.
I'll put you in the list...  wink

Five of them.... Count me in  smile

Only 1 page of RPG Should be there(main article) and all the rest Major RPGs should be in section-WELL KNOWN RPGs(in article RPG) where only a brief description of the Rpgs should be there.

Can anyone please see the articles I have created and improve on them?

My articles will have almost no pics so if Anyone can insert images, it would be very helpful. Thank You.

P.S. I feel there should be more Bureaucrats now.(2 people are not enough, especially considering that it took me 7 pages of thread to get an account.)
If that is the speed then NOBODY except the EXTREMELY enthusiastic will bother waiting.

We can also create a class of Administrators, who review the newly written topics, classify them and improve them,make suggestions and add more details and also help the writer of the topic in writing better articles.

THAT WILL TAKE A LOT OF PRESSURE OFF ANDERSMH AND LUCARIO AND MAKING ACCOUNTS WILL BE A LOT EASIER.

(All this has been written taking into consideration that we are allowing Virtually Everone who requests to get an Account.)

P.S. We need an OFFICIAL WIKI (STICKY) THREAD WHERE NOBODY WILL HAVE TO BOTHER GOING THROUGH JUNK (AS THERE WILL BE NONE)

Re: The Scratch Wiki

My current work on WIKI- Making a few more pages (about which I know), adding links, creating Redirects, and so on...

Plz add Images to every topic I give (since I'm not too good at images)I loved it that every page had many pics. Scratch On.

I would love it If i can be promoted  wink

Re: The Scratch Wiki

I think we're keeping group and RPG articles, Subh...  smile

Glad you're working on the wiki!  big_smile

I don't think the wiki needs any more administrators... but if the tools would really come in handy to you, then ask about being an administrator.  wink

There is no reason to be a bureaucrat - and it gives you duties and such.  yikes  Being a bureaucrat lets you create accounts, edit the user rights and not be affected by rate limits - and administrators get the third one as well.  tongue  Being a bureaucrat really isn't that useful...  big_smile
