[Archive] How much have You contributed to the Wiki?

Xander:

Now I know not everyone is a history buff when it comes to Chaos Dwarfs, but a lot of us do model our own miniatures for our armies! The conversion section in our Wiki is a bit out of date and could use your help!

[[Chaos_Dwarf_Hobby_Articles]]

I know a lot of you have images you could contribute to these pages!

What’s holding you back? :cheers

Also, don’t forget! You can link directly to articles in the Wiki by using double square brackets!

…becomes [[BFSP]]!

tjub:

Sure, I can add a few of my stuff. Ill have to look into it tomorrow when I have more time thou, is there any quick “how to…”?

Zanko:

I would also add some stuff!

But I have one problem … how could I post a pic in a wiki article?

It doesn´t function like in the normal posts with a photobucket link.

The only possibility I found is to fit a jpg file in the wiki-text. But how can I perform this???

:hashut

Xander:

I believe there was a how to in one of our WoH issues.

Let me find it for you guys.

Starts on Page 61 of Issue #4!

Zanko:

Thanx for the description! :hat off

The first pic is linked!

:hashut

GRNDL:

I have contributed absolutely nothing! That’s just the way it goes. Nothing to contribute.

two_heads_talking:

I’m with GRNDL , that and the fact that I can’t seem to figure out how to upload a simple picture doesn’t make it any easier…

GRNDL:

Let me clarify my position. I hope I’m not speaking for THT when I say this, but: as far as I can tell the Wiki is already well stocked and maintained by people who know what they are doing, have a passion for it and are generally enthusiastic for doing the wiki.

I’m not much of an expert on CD - I enjoy the looks, stylings and fluff, etc, but not to the extent that our experts do. I have an opinion, but that’s not much use to a Wiki. I can create new stuff, but once again, fluff stylings are subjective, so really what’s the point?

Finally, I’m a hobbyist and I’d like to keep my involvement simply that. I’m not Willmark with his bottomless well of energy for family, work, webzines, websites AND his multiple hobbies. I’m not Xander, Grim with their devotion to video tutorials and meticulous attention to detail on this and the other. I visit one Warhammer website and one only - this is it - and, for me, even posting regularly, is tough to do. I can’t post like Kera, for a variety of reasons.

I’m not sure what I have to contribute in terms of models, pictures, or what have you. You guys didn’t ask my permission to use my photos for Word of Hashut (and I don’t really want you to ask me for permission. :slight_smile: ) so, if that’s what you’re after, I don’t know why you haven’t used them already, aside from the obvious quality issue. I haven’t even posted pics to get the “low hanging fruit” medals.

I’m a follower, not a leader. Except for in the United Way, but they only respond to $$$ and they made me a “Leader of the Way” when showed enough greenbacks every year. But they don’t expect anything from me… except the greenbacks next year. /sigh

And finally: BAH HUMBUG!!! :stuck_out_tongue:

cornixt:

Don’t be too worried about contributing if you don’t have the time/motivation/energy, but if we don’t advertise ways that you can help out then there aren’t many people who step up and ask how they can. The hobo that doesn’t ask will go hungry.

Help if you can, if you can’t then don’t fret.

dedwrekka:

I started the Rykarth the Unbreakable page (as documented in the history) some time ago, but was unable to get the other pictures from that GH to work for some reason. If anyone with more time or understanding of it is willing to add the rest, be my guest.

Kera foehunter:

i’m not a fan of wiki !! I probably not add to it!!

Ancient History:

Growf?

GRNDL

GRNDL:

Willmark
Which bit do you take umbrage at? Its a compliment. I am floored by your output.

Kera foehunter:

Willmark:

Ahh you never can tell on the internet, plus I had just gotten done working at my PT job after wroking all day at my FT job… in short I shouldn’t have been posting that tired.

GRNDL:

He not the only one that floored !! Grndl your such a sweety

Kera foehunter
