Greetings, Mopar96 Let me be among the first to welcome you to the FRWiki. I look forward to working with you on articles and hope your enthusiasm for the Realms continues. However, there is an issue to briefly address.

Since this is a wiki and wikis are not intended to be random information dumps, there are certain standards to which we, and all members of Wikia, adhere to. Currently, the images you have uploaded do not fulfill these editorial standards. I do not fault you for this, but merely account this as a lack of experience, seeing as I have made similar mistakes in the past. For details on exactly what is wrong, check out the talk pages of all four images.

I don't wish to diminish your enthusiasm - far from it. I merely want to instruct you as to how you can become a better editor and contributor. As such I just want to point you towards a few things. First of all, check out Wikipedia's guidelines and policies. Believe it or not, Wikipedia and the FR Wiki are run essentially by the same people - you, me, and anybody willing to contribute and both function off of the same basic coding and guidelines. So do yourself a favor and check out.

That said, some things from Wikipedia don't necessarily apply, particularly since this wiki assumes an in-universe POV (with the exception of real-world articles), rather than an objective, reality-based NPOV. For that reason you should also check out the FR Wiki's own sets of guidlines, which can be found here.

I hope you find this informative. And again, thank you for contributing. Niirfa-sa 05:21, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Okay, did you understand any of what I last said? This wiki is not a random information dump. I appreciate your dedication, but the formatting of the articles is abyssmal. It really takes time out of contributing to other articles? Couldn't you bother just to look at the aforementioned help pages and learn how to use wiki formatting? You only have to learn once.
