Hey there, welcome to the wiki! Thanks a lot for the contributions so far, I'm looking forward to see more. Although I'm not actively adding stuff to the wiki right now I am keeping an eye on it from day to day, and hopefully I'll be contributing again soon! Litso 22:19, 1 November 2007 (CET)

spam

Hey, I see you got rid of a lot of spam recently. I'm currently working on implementing a CAPTCHA security to stop the spammers, but in the meantime I'll make you sysop. That way you are able to compare recent edits and make a rollback to the last spamless version of an article. Makes it a lot easier to remove spam and you'll have some other privileges too. Enjoy!

Wow, cool, a sysop! Well it'll be nice to help stop some more spam from coming through, I'm really surprised how much this wiki gets! I hope your new security system works out.--Jarvis 22:03, 8 November 2007 (CET)

I just added a simple security system that makes users who are not logged in that enter a new url to a page have to solve a simple sum before submitting. This should keep away a lot of the spammers... if needed I can higher the security by letting everybody solve the sum except for sysops. Hope this takes away a lot of work for us!

That new thing seems to be working, no spam yet. Its great we finally dont have to deal with all that stuff anymore, it was getting pretty damn annoying.--Jarvis 04:32, 12 November 2007 (CET)

Front page article system

Ok look yes this is Dan again and well I am really bored and want to relive my nostalgic time as a wiki sysop so listen up, this is how you make a "front page article system".

Well first create a voting page were people can nominate articles and vote then which ever one had the most votes get to be it.

Anyways now onto the real stuff.

copy pasta everything below:

Article of the Today

{{MansonWiki:Today's featured article/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTDAY}}, {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}

Ok look at what I put up in there, basically each article is it's own template and when you make the template all it is, is the first paragraph to the article with a small image on the side and with the first word being a link to the article.

[Take this for example] Just remember you NEED to write it in the format of the example for it to work.

Looks good! We should really do that :) 87.209.18.15 04:46, 2 December 2007 (CET)
