Hi, I am just looking for editors on the EastEnders Wiki and need a lot of help there, especially someone who is good at making templates and infoboxes. I need help with the articles and need a better main page.
If you can help, please do, Solar Dragon 15:57, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
- I suggest you pop over to WikiIndex and crete a page to let people know that Eastenders Wiki exists. Hopefully that will pull a few Eastenders fans onto your project. If you keep chugging away with what you can do, and use things like WikiIndex to help promote your wiki
- I see from your Most visited pages special page that you have already managed to achive a wikiFactor of 1, which is pretty good for a wiki with less than 100 pages. Eastenders is a fairly popular subject (much more popular than the subject of my own wiki) so if you keep going, you should hit the stage where your wiki gets so big that it starts to show up in more search engine results.
- Meanwhile, I suggest you create page within your own userpage (something like User:Solar_Dragon:Template_test) and try a few experiments. That way, if you want to come here and ask for help building a template, you can have the information on your own "test" page, rather than expect non-Eastenders fans to know who characters like Dot Cotton are. There are a number of ways that you can build templates, so you could try for one big template for all the characters or do one template per family. You could also do a template for all the houses in Albert Square or one for all the landlords of the pub. David Shepheard 17:50, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, and if I may make an unsolicited suggestion your thread title "Eastenders Wiki" doesn't really let strangers know that you want help with templates. Maybe "Eastenders Wiki needs help with templates" would get you more responses. David Shepheard 17:56, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
- I can give you an easy-to-edit NavBox template if you'd like one, but otherwise there's not much I can do... - Xelrog T. Apocalypse 20:54, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
