User blog:SOMEGUY476/Controling Your Wiki The Easy Way.

How do you create a wiki?
Good question. Click the rectangle that says 'start a wikia' in the top right corner. It is by your notification bell. Then fill out the wikia form. Name your wikia, what genre, whats it about, etc.

Anonymous
These users are marked as 'A Wikia Contributor.' For example, if i looked up User:98.116.134.9, he would be marked as an anon. The 98.166.134.9 is his IP. You can check a users IP by requesting it to one of the Wikia Staff. You can also via Contact Wikia for other issues with anons.

Wiki Navigation
The wiki navagation is a box when you click 'contribute' then look at the bottom and there is 'edit wiki navigation'. You see your page tabs and categories. If you put 2 'stars' (*) by it, it will become a category. If then you put a 3 stars (*) below the 2 starred category then the 3 starred one will become part of the list in the arrow. The 'arrow' is an arrow down to the pages with 3 stars (*)

Do you want to let anonymous edit?
This is your choice. Choose if you want anons to edit, i want anons to not edit, so i put a protection on it. What are protections? If you want to protect a page, press the arrow down next to the edit button and click protect. Do you want the page to be edited by all, registered, or staff only. Staff only pages would include: Req&Reports, Main Page, and any other page you think staff should only edit. Anons usually vandalize, no offense but on agar.io wiki some vandalize but are blocked.

Promoting to staff
If you want to promote someone to staff, click the 'Admin Dashboard' button in the bottom right corner. Then click 'User Rights' then promote them to: Moderator, Admin, Bureacrat, Chat mod, rollback, or demote them of user rights. Choose wisely, some staff may vandalize wikias if you do so. Only if they made 4,000 edits then promote them to chat mod. Example: Ernesto at Plants Vs. Zombies Wiki has chat moderator rights. Then he can kick them, and ban them if nessicary.

When To Ban/Block?
When people vandalize/spam. Say, User:Stan890 spammed or vandalized, i would block him for 3 days. Vandalizing like deleting content from pages will be 1 month block at my wiki. I am strict and do not mess with people. Thank you for reading my blog
