Welcome
Welcome to Central Wikia, Acer4666!

We're a friendly community here; most of us are active on an individual wiki, and many of us are active on more than one.

If you're looking for help, a help wiki can be found here, and you're welcome to ask the community questions on the Help Desk. If you need assistance from a staff member, you can contact the Community Team using Special:Contact.

You can get live help from community members and staff in our IRC channel. There are also channels for larger Wikia and their communities. Here you can socialize and get to know your community!

If you have an idea for a new wiki, please create one! Check out our list of new wikis and see if any of them interest you. A directory of existing wikis is also available.

Finally, please keep an eye on the recent changes to see what the community is up to here.

Enjoy! -- Kirkburn (Talk) 13:29, 29 July 2009

Page header bar
Hi Acer, I've found the problem. The piece of code before this one has not been closed (There is no } at the end). Add the }, then replace the original code I gave you with this one: .WikiaPageHeader { border-bottom: 1px solid #D9D9D9; margin-bottom: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px;} That should sort it for you.

I am not really sure what you are talking about. Please elaborate. --JW Talk   12:59, July 19, 2011 (UTC)

Gaming the games
To reply to your message on User talk:Jirachiwish:

I'd say there's a benefit to giving motivation via a system of goals and awards, even if those systems can be gamed by pointless edits. I've always been proud of my Wikipedia edit count, but could have built that count with bad edits. Of course, I would have quickly been banned if those edits were not genuine, just as can happen here if someone tries to play the system. I see badges as an extension of an edit count or my list of featured articles/images on Uncyclopedia.

The ideal for me is a system that rewards good editing, to help motivate more people who have good things to add... and also a social system that stops those that try to game it by adding bad or pointless things. Better still would be a system that could see the difference between the two automatically... but, of course, fixing a typo and adding an unnecessary space can look the same to an automatic system. But in general, giving encouragement, feedback, and credit for building a wiki can work well as a motivator for contributors. Or it might not work for your wiki, in which case it can be turned off.

The image attribution isn't intended to be a motivator btw, the intention there is for the link to help show visitors that this is a site that various people have built, rather than something created by "Wikia" or "the game company". But again, if it doesn't work for your wiki it can be turned off on request. -- sannse http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb32675/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (help forum | blog)  22:46, July 19, 2011 (UTC)
