I did a whole bunch of minor edits (linking exisiting articles, updating text, and adding links to be expanded) while familiarizing myself with the process of working within the krakiipedia framework. Looks like a fun contest, Scribes.

:I've noticed! I'll actually start tallying your points up tomorrow, so I don't get behind. A couple pointers! Be sure not to just cut and paste information from its original source, unless you're quoting it (then you need to cite the source!), to avoid plagiarism and other fun doo dads. It takes a little bit more work, but just re-write it or summarize it in your own words. One can always cheat and quote extensively....but you didn't hear that from me. Er. Second point, when making comments on discussion/talk pages, sign your posts with four ~ marks. That'll automatically sign and date it for you. Its easier to find out who said what and when, versus checking the history section. Otherwise, you're off to a great start and I look forward to seeing everything you've worked on tomorrow. :)

Krakiipedia River's Rest Contest

Feel free to ask any and all questions about the contest here. :)

I'm not sure about Andy and some of the editors that are used to updating krakiipedia frequently, but if anyone has any general questions on editing krakiipedia as far as formatting and such I can be reached by my AIM SN Adam0690 if anyone needs a fairly-to-quick response. Although, I'm not as good as Andy on the super detailed stuff. Adam talk 04:51, 7 December 2007 (EST)
