Spelling consistencies

I'm not sure where else to ask this, but I'm a bit curious as to what the "correct" spelling of okay/OK is on the CWCki. In a lot of the transcriptions it's used both ways. I'm sure it can be used both ways, but is there a preferred spelling to use for consistency? How about for All right/Alright too, while I'm asking? --Paperback 22:26, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

  • Don't be a lazy shit. It's "okay" and "all right". CrassCrab 22:53, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
    • You got it. I may go through the transcripts and change them. Also I just realized I didn't mean to post this on the talk page. Derp. --Paperback 23:32, 17 July 2010 (UTC)


Just out of curiosity, in lieu of the recent deletion of the Fan Works page, will a Fan Fiction still have a place on this Wiki? The Brave 18:35, 23 November 2010 (PST)

Editing My Own Page

I am such a newb. I can't edit my Userpage. It brings up the mathematical equation, I solve it...and nothing happens. Every single time. What the hell is it that I'm doing wrong? --ThatPianoGuy 07:38, 13 August 2011 (PDT)

I don't think I've ever seen that problem before. It might be a problem with your browser, but I don't really see why that would be. That said, we've had plenty of spambots that make accounts here, make userpages for themselves advertising some shitty product, and then leaving. It's possible one of the admins made it so that new users can't make pages for a couple days/a few contributions to counteract this. I'm not aware of a policy change, but I was sick for weeks until a few days back so I haven't been keeping track. Freecell (t/c) 09:29, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
So it turns out that that last bit is bullshit because I was able to make a userpage on this account. I guess it has to be a problem on your end. FreeceII 09:31, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
Did he provide an edit summary when creating the user page? I've had problems creating new pages if there was no edit summary. It would warn me that I had no edit summary, then it would ask me to solve the sum, then bring me back to warn me that I didn't have an edit summary.... This would repeat until I finally provided an edit summary. Perhaps the FreeceII account had no problems creating the new page because he did provide an edit summary? ~ BrianBash 10:23, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
I have to provide an Edit Summary? I feel really fucking stupid now. I'll go see if it works.--ThatPianoGuy 14:23, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
Still not working.

I don't know, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but 8+8 has always been 16, and the Edit Summary IS there. I guess I'll just have to deal with it for now.--ThatPianoGuy 14:30, 13 August 2011 (PDT) Just created your userpage for you. You should be able to edit it without any other problems. Let me know if that keeps happening. Freecell (t/c) 14:34, 13 August 2011 (PDT)

Nice one, Freecell. I'm just gonna keep that on my userpage for all eternity, just because I can. Thanks for the help, it's working fine. --ThatPianoGuy 14:46, 13 August 2011 (PDT)
