Re:Brushfire Video

I'll try to. Thanks for the info. Actually, I'm pretty sure you can make new pages by just typing in sonichu.com/cwcki/(Insert preferred title of your article here).Alan Pardew (talk) 06:42, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Nope. Didn't work. Got the same ol' white screen again when I type in temporarily random text (to change later) and clicked "save". --FromtheWordsofBR (talk) 21:44, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

Alrighty. I'll make the article as soon as possible. Alan Pardew (talk) 08:22, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Re:How can you have a private conversation with one other person on this wiki?

I don't think it's possible to PM someone on this wiki, but you can PM me over on the CWCki Forums. If you can't, I'll post my unused e-mail here. Let me know which way you prefer. Alan Pardew (talk) 08:22, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Editing Conflicts

I don't know if there's any practical way to avoid this, but your edits to the Fetish Vids page interrupted my own sequence of edits and caused me to have to start over. It's very annoying when this happens, but like I said, I don't know if it can be prevented, except by not tinkering with a page that's undergone a recent revision, as it might interrupt someone's work. Is there a fix I'm not aware of, other than copypasting everything into Word first? Also, I'd never heard of Richard Kuta, and he seems like a really obscure reference that no one will understand.

Richard Kuta (a.k.a. aknotholeresident, DigiBrushstroke and MrChipmunkMobian) is a lolcow on the internet known for his rant about Sonic's green eyes and videos "leaked" of him in diapers and acting like a baby. But I see what you mean.

  • I changed "three" into 3
  • I turned "Screen Caps" into "Screencaps"
  • I added descriptions for the remaining videos and moved some of the links from the transcripts to that
  • I deleted "Need to Re-link or Reupload Video" because there is already a template for that
  • I changed "Really? This fetish?" into "Regression", then the Richard Kuta reference.

I'm not really complaining about your particular edits, just that when I'm in the middle of editing a page and someone else makes an edit to the same page first, the CWCki tells me that my own edits can't be saved, and a lot of my time gets wasted. I'm just suggesting that if you see that there's been a recent edit, that you refrain from tinkering with that particular page for a couple hours, in case someone else is in the middle of working with it. There are other gardens you can tend in the meantime.

I know the CWCki doesn't have a style guide, but according to The Chicago Manual of Style, numbers from 1-99 should be spelled out. I doubt this has been followed very closely, but certainly a number as small as 3 should be written as "three." --Asperhes (talk) 22:58, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

OK. --FromtheWordsofBR (talk) 23:17, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
