Forum:Programming for some wikia page

Well, I think the title is quite descriptive.

I was wondering if it was possible to make code for wikia pages, and (in case it's possible) which coding-lenguage to use.

So far I've been lurking the forum a little, but with no result. Maybe with a little bit more of lurking I'd find out more, but I think just asking is faster.

I've seen people in wikias spending a lot of time and energy doing trival things like "copying and moving information from one page to another", when that could easily be made by an script. Plus, I'm a coder/coder in training, so it's of a challenge.

 * It is possible to code Wikia pages, if I am understanding you correctly. As to what coding language you need to use, it depends on what you are trying to do. Can you be a little more descriptive?
 * Doing a lot of repetitive work is usually done by more advanced wikians with bots. Either with Autowikibrowser, a standard bot (needs some coding skill) or a Pywikibot using Python programming language (so only for those who are quite experienced and have coding skill as well as patience)
 * There are many other types of coding possible to use on Wikia. HTML/ CSS, Javascript, PHP, Flash, Perl, JavaFX, Wikia Templates and you can check out the wikia developers wiki, wikia code change tracing, cool wikian examples of coding, or options where you need some help from the Wikia Staff for.
 * So there is a whole lot possible. The main question is: Where do you want to use it and what goal do you want to achieve.
