Puchim@s Wiki
I have made a wiki on Puchimas. I need help with the design. I will work on content and other stuff.

 * Hi Winxfan1. To be approved for design help, the wiki must meet the best practices criteria linked at the top of the page. Once the wiki meets those requirements, come back and make a new request, and I'll be happy to add it to the approved list.

New Wordmarks for my 4 Wikis?
If at all possible, I'd love to have a new set of wordmarks for the Marvel, DC, Image and Dark Horse wikis. In order to reuse them widely, all 4 wikis should be the same 'style', be language-agnostic (or easily translatable), and be in vector format for use in large banners, t-shirts, business cards, mobile apps, and misc. other swag. I'd like to keep the comic speech bubble theme, but I am totally open to new ideas.

Is there a graphically-inclined ComDev rockstar who is up to the challenge? Thank you so much ComDev!!!

The CN Wiki
Hello im paranormaldubbing of the CN Wiki which is my current projet http://thecncartoonnetwork.wikia.com/wiki/The_CN_Wiki We need some more content added like new pages and any ideas and help for designing

Thanks,

ParanormalDubbing (talk) 21:21, June 8, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi ParanormalDubbing. I noticed that at thecncartoonnetwork.wikia.com, you (and other users) are copy-pasting many pages from other wikis on Wikia, with no attribution (credit) to the contributors who created the pages. Therefore the wiki will not qualify for help from the ComDev team. That said, I strongly recommend that you read Help:Licensing to learn how to properly export/import pages to your wiki from other wikis. Furthermore, using lots of pages imported from other wikis without their consent is generally considered poor etiquette. So even after importing pages properly (using the export/import tool), I encourage you to edit those pages so that they are not exact copies from the source wiki.

 * Hi Crazybear. To be approved for design help, the wiki will need to meet the best practices linked at the top of the page. On Final Cross Wiki, all you need to do is put these uncategorized pages into an appropriate category. Once that's been done, reply here to let me know, and I'll add the wiki to the approved list.

Biblicalapedia
Biblicalapedia has recently learned tips and tricks from the AMP, but now in order to fulfill our next step to getting contributors back we need the ComDev. We need help with designing our own theme (to help us qualify for a spotlight), creating a homepage (adding some rss on there as well and such), improving SEO (targeting some high quality key words that would often be searched), structuring our categorzation tree (which we are trying to re-plant, but is very tedious even with use of a bot) and improving our content. We need help finding (and perhaps creating or modyfying) tools and tricks and such to cleaning up content effectively that the AMP could not provide (as they are mainly advice not development). We would like to create this request in advanced for there are still a few things we want to prepare before you assist our wiki. You can go ahead and notify us whether or not we qualify (according to the AMP we should) and we'll let you know when we are ready.

Ratchet & Clank wiki main page
Hi, we're happy with our current main page but we would like a slight formatting change that I've not been able to get to work.

Our old layout used to have a central section with the featured article and then the Did you know..., featured user, improvement drive and official friends below. Because of the varied length of the top-right corner Wikia advert I moved the content into the left column. Looking at it since it looks a little squashed and there is room for the Did you know..., featured user, improvement drive and official friends to go back to being as it was, just without the Featured Article above it. I've managed to separate the sections in a test edit but without the featured article across the full width above it the content doesn't display correctly. I hope that make sense. But basically we want everything to stay as it is but the Did you know..., featured user, improvement drive and official friends sections to go back to how they were in the older revision and I'd really appreciate some help.

How to Program Wiki
Hello Community Development Team. I'm Codyn329, an administrator at How to Program Wiki. I'm interested in receiving help with content creation and/or organization. We have around 57 pages, and although I've built very strong reference pages that I think should help users. I need help writing tutorials, and expanding them a bit more. It's hard for me because doing it alone, wouldn't make much progress. I, fortunately, know users who could help, and so I asked them, but unfortunately all of them are busy. I already know how to use HTML, CSS, and MediaWiki and Wiki related subjects. In fact, I've been practicing HTML for pretty much 19 months, MediaWiki for 19 months, and CSS for about 7 months. For the Wiki, I want to aim to teach these languages to other users and help out.


 * HTML / CSS
 * jQuery / JavaScript
 * HTML DOM
 * MediaWiki and Wikia Markup
 * PHP
 * Python
 * API
 * Ruby
 * XML and other Sub languages

Unfortunately, I don't know all of these subjects, and I still want to find users who do know these and create a huge community. Could you help in producing more traffic, in content creation and improvement, and also getting the users to stay?

Thanks again! Codyn329 (talk) 00:16, July 28, 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi Codyn. The wiki's organization is in good shape and that main page looks great! Besides wiki markup, which the wiki has covered quite well, the ComDev team doesn't have enough (or in some cases, any) knowledge on the other topics listed to be qualified to contribute tutorials and such. To help get inspiration for writing and structuring tutorials, I'd suggest looking at w3schools.com, which you're likely already familiar with. As for getting and keeping more users, there is some good tips and advice at Help:Attracting contributors.

Payphone Wiki
Please enable maps on the payphone wiki. Maps is a root of the wiki, pinpointing location. I've nearly completed the category infrastructure of ZIP codes, area codes and cities, states. The next step is adding 14,000+ payphone article entries, and I'll need maps enabled before that. Payphone Wiki Administrator 19:08, July 29, 2013 (UTC)


 * What is this page about?


 * Pardon the delay of even justifying this indignant unsigned comment with a response. It's currently as originally planned but just in its infancy a WIKI database with over 200 ARTICLE entries - a collection of payphones indexed by telephone number. When maps is enabled and, I estimate in 20 days the ZIP codes, Area codes and cities, states categories are completed, then I'll begin converting records from http://payphone-project.com/numbers/ into articles on the wiki. I have recently considered expanding the scope from a collection of payphone locations to a comprehensive Reverse Telephone Directory wiki.


 * http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User:Thumbwrumbler82 : Thanks for asking. Your answer is in the title. Did you visit Payphone Wiki? If you did, you wouldn't have felt compelled to ask what the title answers - a wiki of payphones - or ask what the main page describes and how to create an entry. Please learn the difference between a wiki and a page, a record and an article.


 * Anyone who passes near a payphone is encouraged to grab it's phone number and document it, stubs are welcome. Visit Payphone Wiki to learn how. Payphone Wiki Administrator 18:24, July 31, 2013 (UTC)
