Yeah, I know that there is a wealth of information about Chris's autism and how he and his family don't want to consult a therapist, but I think it would be interesting if we had a wider perspective on the Chandler's mental health. Do you guys think it is interesting to create and article called "Chris and Mental Health" or "E-Diagnosis of CWC"? Just a thought. - TheRapingDog
For older conversations, see the '''archives''':  
*I think that sort of thing can be incorporated into autism. If you want to talk about e-diagnosis, a lot of that shit is speculative and while interesting, an entire article of it really doesn't belong on CWCki. Minor speculation is alright in articles but not an entire article. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 10:29, 17 June 2009 (CEST)
**There's been a marked deterioration in his mental health over the course of his e-fame. It would be interesting to to have a sort of timeline documenting it. Perhaps even a sort of "forecast" predicting when he'll be less like a "closet" deviant and more like The Creeper from The Suffering. [[User:Guise|Guise]] 00:31, 21 June 2009 (CEST)


==Should We Make a FanArt/Troll Art Section?==
* [[Talk:Main Page/Archive 1|Archive 1]] (2009)


Let's face it, we have so much fanart and spare time, just for Chrissy. Since I'm guessing there's a lot more troll art out there than what is on the ED page, should we make an art section so CWCikifags can upload all their crudely drawn Rule 34 for Chrissy to find when he finally discovers this Wiki? What do you guys think about it? --[[User:Wild Sonichu|Wild Sonichu]] 01:55, 6 May 2009 (CEST)
* [[Talk:Main Page/Archive 2|Archive 2]] (2009 - 2010)
*For space issues and the basic idea that this is a wiki about Chris, I think it'd be better not to do this. Not that I have anything against fan art, but having fan art for its own sake really isn't what CWCki is about. Now I have nothing against fan art when it 1) helps emphasize an article (especially instances like [[Fapcup]] or 2) it's of significant merit to trolls (for instance, [[Sonichu Finale]] is universally known amongst most trolls. I think I've ever seen people on ED ask about it). But just having CWCki as an image hosting isn't want CWCki is about, even if it is to eventually troll him. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 10:34, 17 June 2009 (CEST)


==An important type announcement about new images==
* [[Talk:Main Page/Archive 3|Archive 3]] (2010 - 2020)
I have just uploaded all 518 images from the [[Scrapbook of Fail]], as procured by [[PandaHalo]]. Since I have no life, it only took me 2.5 hours. We now have images chronicling his past, higher res images of pics that sucked ass before, image names from Chris that help describe stuff, like his art (that blue fish? That's a HEDGEHOG fish), and some school projects that give some insight into his younger self.
== "The encyclopedia about" line ==


As CWCkifags, we need to incorporate these new images into articles, make them accessible, mark lower res versions of images for deletion, find information from these, transcribe images with text, incorporate some images into the timeline, etc.
Currently it reads "The encyclopedia about Christian Weston Chandler." Should we change that to read "Chris Chan" or "Christine Weston Chandler" instead? Christian hasn't been his name for years. [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 03:27, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
:My personal preference is the latter (Christine). Alternatively: "The encyclopedia about the [[Chris|author]] of ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]''". --[[User:Little Owl|Little Owl]] ([[User talk:Little Owl|talk]]) 04:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
::I say, focus on "Chris-Chan". Officially CWCki policy is to stick with [[Christian Weston Chandler's FUTURE MESSAGE|Chris's TRUE and ORIGINAL gender]], so "Christine" isn't typically used in spite of the name-change legally happening. Plus, Chris-Chan is the name that garnered the most attention anyways. [[User:KingClark|KingClark]] ([[User talk:KingClark|talk]]) 10:18, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
:"Chris Chan" would be convenient since the [[:File:CWCiki Introduction.jpg]] uses Christian, and "Chris Chan" has been a nickname for both "Christian" and "Christine". Otherwise we would need a new CWCki Intro image with "Christine" to avoid confusion. [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 12:58, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
::Something like this? — "The encyclopedia about [[Chris-Chan]], the author of ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]''". --[[User:Little Owl|Little Owl]] ([[User talk:Little Owl|talk]]) 20:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
:::Okay with me. [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 07:56, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
::Chris has been fine with being referred to as Chris post-namechange to Christine, so I think if we were to change it, Chris-Chan/Chris Chan would be the best way to do it. Most people refer to him as Chris as opposed to Christian or Christine anyway. --[[User:Abaddon|Abaddon]] ([[User talk:Abaddon|talk]]) 01:23, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
:Someone on the CWCki Discord suggested linking to [[Chris Chan]] as a way to link to his different names. Thoughts? Also, should it be written with or without the hyphen? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 07:56, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
::I agree with Hurtful here, chris chan is a much more well known name and is normally the first thing we think of when we talk about chris. But i also think we should add a 'creator of sonichu' to the tagline too, similar to what little owl thought of.  [[User:Mon1ka|Mon1ka]] ([[User talk:Mon1ka|talk]]) 4:01am, 26th of april 2021 (utc)
While we're at it, should we change the disclaimer at the bottom? It seems like a set-up for a punchline about Chris's inability to understand what does and does not qualify as "parody", since the subject of the wiki is a real person. [[User:KingClark|KingClark]] ([[User talk:KingClark|talk]]) 06:25, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
:The editor who added the parody line explained his reasoning [http://cwcki.club/index.php?threads/the-cwcki.1979/#post-55098 in a CWCki Club post]. I think he has a point. Much of the narrative about Chris is framed by trolls who manipulated him. Chris Chan the Internet personality is basically a parody of Chris Chandler the person. Also many CWCki pages, especially earlier ones, tend to be heavy on the mockery. What would you have in mind to change the dislaimer to? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 07:57, 28 April 2021 (UTC)


It can be done. Gentlemen (and only gentlemen since no girls on Internet, lolol), much like the ancient Crusaders who found complete copies of ancient classics that were only available in snipits from rotting scrolls back in Europe, we have found images that put the lower res PSP images to shame. Let's start using them. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 07:16, 25 March 2009 (CET)
== Future of coping and begging counters ==


===The Scrapbook Image Resizing Project===
In light of the incest shit and Chris' eviction, do you think we still need the begging and coping counters? [[User:FokkerTISM|FokkerTISM]] ([[User talk:FokkerTISM|talk]]) 05:20, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
Everyone, you've been doing great work in using the new images, and I'd like to thank [[User:MachPunch|MachPunch]] for categorizing all the images. However, while our job isn't done fully incorporating the images (fun fact: there's still more images than there are articles here), there is one big thing we can do. [[User:Cogsdev|Cogs]] has said that we're running low on space on Box 16, where CWCki, PVCC, the Sonichu site mirror, and other Cogs operations are. I'd imagine the CWCki images would be a major part of taking up the space. There's a lot of images that could be resized to be smaller, so if you really want to help, get the images in the Scrapbook to under 150 kb. It will be a bit of an effort but it can be done. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 14:44, 4 April 2009 (CEST)
:I think that they should probably be taken down at some point and the page should be reorganized, but not until Chris has been detained. We are approaching the end of Christory as it once was, but we're still not there just yet. [[User:KingClark|KingClark]] ([[User talk:KingClark|talk]]) 11:07, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
:I hope to have this done by Wednesday.--[[User:Fuckingstupid|Fuckingstupid]] 10:14, 27 July 2009 (CEST)

::Later than planned, but it's completed. --[[User:Fuckingstupid|Fuckingstupid]] 03:09, 31 July 2009 (CEST)


==Spelling Mistake in the image?==
== Reorganization ==
OMG, the image in the top left corner says CWCiki! [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 21:22, 18 March 2009 (CET)


* Whoops. [[User:Gleefk|Gleefk]] 04:18, 23 March 2009 (CET)
After taking down the counters, the page looks weirdly asymmetrical. Could we compensate for this by making each batch of DYK entries longer, or move the CWCki news section to the other side while letting Da Update be longer instead? [[User:KingClark|KingClark]] ([[User talk:KingClark|talk]]) 08:51, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
:I think we should make the DYK batches longer, as making Da Update longer would defeat the purpose of it being a way to see all '''recent''' happenings related to CWC. Also, since I might as well bring it up here, should we add some type of counter related to Chris being arrested? Or would that be too redundant? [[User:Lez|Lez]] ([[User talk:Lez|talk]]) 11:23, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
::Might be worth putting up a new counter for how many days Chris has been in jail, considering he's being held without bond and he got a continence until at least November. --[[User:Holdek|Holdek]] ([[User talk:Holdek|talk]]) 18:38, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

**That being said, I'll start working on a few other small images that could work with a rotator script. ;) --[[User:Anonymous|Anonymous]] 12:01, 29 January 2009 (CET)
[[Image:CWCkiLogo.png|thumb|right|It's...beautiful.]]
Gleefk on the forum posted this number (well, it's his avatar) on PVCC forum and I think it's absolutely beautiful. No idea if it's translucent or whatever but I'm sure you can fix that. I'm guessing he'd be okay with it, fair use and all. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 14:16, 15 March 2009 (CET)


==Uploading Images==
The discord link was disabled a little while ago, but the discord is now accepting new members again so the link being dead is not necessary, so I think it should be re-added. [[User:Good username|Good username]] ([[User talk:Good username|talk]]) 20:50, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
How the hell do you do it here? I'm use to Wikipedia where there's some special way to do it. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 03:00, 26 January 2009 (CET)

== Cleanup ==
==Wonky formatting==


Articles need to be categorized. I've made up a list of categories to be created to make this wiki moar organized. If you have any more suggestions for categories or sub-categories, plz let me know. --[[User:Anonymous|Anonymous]] 08:17, 26 January 2009 (CET)
Something is off with the formatting of the Main Page, I feel this needs to fixed as soon as possible. [[User:PsychoNerd054|PsychoNerd]] ([[User talk:PsychoNerd054|talk]]) 23:01, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
:I think [[User:Good username|Good username]]'s edits to the prison counter messed something up. I'm gonna revert everything there. --[[User:4CentUser|4CentUser]] ([[User talk:4CentUser|talk]]) 23:07, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
:Yep, that fixed it. --[[User:4CentUser|4CentUser]] ([[User talk:4CentUser|talk]]) 23:08, 17 October 2021 (UTC)


----Categories-----<br>
==The formatting of the front page is off again==
*Comics (anything pertaining to the Sonichu comics)
**Sonichu characters (subcategory for characters in the comic)
*People (People IRL)
**Chandler family (subcat for CWC & family)
*Trolls (durr)
*Websites (sites both real and fake involved in the CWC saga)
*Places (IRL locations)
*Trolling (troll exploits)
*CWC Chronicles (emails, Megan Saga, etc.)


==Wanted Pages==
With the addition of more counters the front page is off sided once more. Does anyone have any ideas on a good way to fill the space on the right? We could always just get rid of a couple of lines on [[template:DYK|Did You Know]]. Ideas are welcome. [[User:Good username|Good username]] ([[User talk:Good username|talk]]) 17:59, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
One thing I'd like if we could copy the IRC chat logs, transcripts of the Skype chats, and his videos here so we have a one stop resource for that sort of thing. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 07:26, 27 January 2009 (CET)
:I wouldn't mind reducing the number of DYK entries per block (maybe down to 15, or 10 if that's necessary) in favor of having more entries in the randomizer. I tried fixing the formatting on the thing but I couldn't figure it out, and sometimes the template is blank. It may be worth merging the counters into one combined template, though – that might fix some of the formatting problems. [[User:KingClark|KingClark]] ([[User talk:KingClark|talk]]) 20:51, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
* this is a very good idea. i'll have a go at this later. --[[User:Cogsdev|cogsdev/vedsgoc]] 15:54, 27 January 2009 (CET)
:I have proceeded to redistribute the DYK entries to ten entries per blocks, and merge {{tl|DYK}} and {{tl|Did you know}} back together since the latter merely called the former with a parser function. For reference, Wikipedia has eight entries. I may not be able to delete {{tl|DYK}} due to Chris having edited the template back in 2010. --[[User:Little Owl|Little Owl]] ([[User talk:Little Owl|talk]]) 22:26, 1 November 2021 (UTC)


==Quote box==
== Jail templates ==
Could someone make a template for quotes from Chris. so I could just type like <nowiki>{{ChrisQuote|Text here|Sauce}}</nowiki> to get it to say it's from Chris and the source? --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 07:47, 27 January 2009 (CET)


==New Name Suggestions==
One of the jail templates should mention that Chris intends to post the info of people who contact him. Maybe in the Incarceration Counter? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 23:00, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
I read on the old CWC wiki you were looking for possible new names,  what about CWCipedia?  (Quick-e-pedia)?--[[User:UncleBastard|UncleBastard]] 23:04, 7 February 2009 (CET)
*Personaly, I like CWCki (an actually clever pun with the CWC initials, as it's pronounced "Quick-ee"). --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 06:38, 10 February 2009 (CET)


==Artistic Depictions==
== Motherfucker ==
Someone did an awesome artistic depiction of Chris's [[Fapcup]] and I'd love to see more stuff like that, mostly for people who don't have images of, like [[Chloe]], [[Clyde Cash]] (in police sketch format, ideally), etc. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 06:38, 10 February 2009 (CET)


== Chronology ==
The "encyclopedia about" line could use an update. How about "The premier encyclopedia on [[Christian Weston Chandler|Chris Chan]], the author of ''[[Sonichu (comic)|Sonichu]]'' and [[Affair with Mother|literal motherfucker]]."? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 05:49, 1 March 2022 (UTC)


Hey gais. Im thinking of putting the Chris-Chan Chronology I have been working on on PVCC on the wiki. I thought it would be pretty cool to orden it year by year, like on Wipedia, so that if you search for 2003, you get all the events in Chris' life for 2003.  
:I mean, more and more people are flocking to this website from that for one thing, and this site is pretty much the most comprehensive thing about Chris there is. Even Geno's Documentary series is just a CliffNote version of the site. So I say we update it to that. [[User:PsychoNerd054|Psycho]] ([[User talk:PsychoNerd054|talk]]) 06:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
I hop you guys liek this idea. If you have any criticism or objections, let me know. It might take a while before I have time to start. [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 04:12, 16 February 2009 (CET)


*I liek that idea. I will help add citations and stuff. [[User:Megapicklezord|Megapicklezord]] 04:26, 16 February 2009 (CET)
==Blanked pages==


*Yeah, that would make things a lot easier.  Best advice I can give is to take advantage of his site.  Chris's obsession with datestamping his own fail has made him a valuable resource for historians.  Also, for humor's sake, I think it'd be neat if fictional events were listed on the same chronology.  For example, Chris wrote in #8 that his father founded CWCville in 1982, and that all the hedgehogs were born in 1987-'88.  [[User:Dethchemist77|Dethchemist77]] 04:32, 16 February 2009 (CET)
Whats the deal with all the blanked pages? Is anyone else getting that when logged out? [[User:Finnegan|Finnegan]] ([[User talk:Finnegan|talk]]) 05:37, 2 March 2022 (UTC)


* I uploaded a sample page, [[2007]]. It would be a good idea to add citations, although that's going to take a lot of work. I'll start doing it slowly, and I might finish in a year or so. ^^ I also still need to add a lot of the blue links, and maybe linking to Christian or Chris everytime is a little to much, but that's details. [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 04:40, 16 February 2009 (CET)
:Marvin adjusted some settings. Are things loading better now? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 16:50, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
** Why not just make one page for the whole chronology? The page might get too big, but you could use expansion tags to make scrolling easier. [[User:Megapicklezord|Megapicklezord]] 04:46, 16 February 2009 (CET)
*** I could do that too, It doesn't really matter to me, although that would mean it makes linking to the individual years quite difficult. I'll let you guys decide, I don't really have much time untill wednesday anyway... (so make sure I know what to do by then^^). Also, I havent edited a wiki for a while, so I might need a refreshing for all those complicated codes. [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 04:56, 16 February 2009 (CET)  
**** Putting equals signs around text creates subsections and those subsections can have redirect pages for them. Did that make any sense? I don't remember the code for expanding though. [[User:Megapicklezord|Megapicklezord]] 05:12, 16 February 2009 (CET)
***** It made some sense, but that would mean creating all the pages seperately, and then having one large redirect-page with links to the seperate years on it, so all the dates wouldn't be on 1 page... I'll try to figure out if I can do stuff with the expansion things. I could also give decennia without much happening their own page (like the eighties and the nineties), but expecially years like 2008 (and even 2009 allready) are so long that they could easily do with their own article. But nvm, we'll figure it out. I just updated the [[2007]] article with all the blue links. I also want to make the dates that have a corresponing "stardate" video to redirect to the article of that video. That's pretty awsum, eh. ^^ [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 05:27, 16 February 2009 (CET)
***** Oh, someone actually made a Template:Chronology. That's pretty helpfull!


==Mumble Archive Project==
::Yes they are. I think it's safe to shut off the loading news template. [[User:PsychoNerd054|Psycho]] ([[User talk:PsychoNerd054|talk]]) 16:56, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
This would actually require the work of those of us with A LOT of free time but I'd like to take the archived Mumble chats we have and transcribe them into wiki form. There's a lot of gold in them and it'd serve as valuable source here. Though first, I need to find out where they're all being kept again =/. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 08:35, 2 March 2009 (CET)
*Is it worth it man... [[User:RachmaninovDESU|RachmaninovDESU]] 11:58, 29 March 2009 (CEST)
We also need a standard way to cite stuff from the Mumble chats. For example, the Mumble quote about Chris "recycling" his semen says it's from the February 17th Mumble chat, but as the chats on the Miscreants site are listed by number, not name, there's no way to know which one it is without listening to them all. Also, the time in the audio file needs to be listed as well. [[User:Pugs Malone|Pugs Malone]] 05:56, 14 March 2009 (CET)

*It got deleted because it's unverifiable and not really a good source to use. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 04:01, 4 March 2009 (CET)


==PSN chat archive project==
== CopperCab ==
I've started to [[BlueSpike_PSN_Chat_1|Chris's PSN chats with Julie]]. The audio is available on [[The Miscreants]] webpage. My suggestion is:<br/>
1. Stick a microphone next to a speaker.<br/>
2. Use Microsoft speech recognition to type out the entire chat in it's entirety. <br/>
3. Go through and edit it accordingly. <br/>


Seriously, it's hell, but like the Mumble chats, there be gold in them hills and a valuable source of info and transcribing it would allow it to easily be cited. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 17:58, 10 March 2009 (CET)
Not sure where to put this, but CopperCab privated the second part of his interview with Chris, so if anyone has a copy put it in there.
*I've been going over some of these, and I think a good temporary measure would be to summarize the Mumble/PSN logs in roughly ten minute increments.  For instance, on an article about a 2 hour chat, it'd list 1:22:00-1:34:00 as containing a conversation about homos or Sarah May being Jewish or whatever. That way you can just go straight to the part you want without having to sift through the entire thing.[[User:Dethchemist77|Dethchemist77]] 02:17, 12 March 2009 (CET)


== Edit to: Get this shit PROPERLY ARCHIVED on the CWCKI STAT! ==
== Downtime ==


Added Sonichu And Rosechu's luv shack. Though I suppose I really meant cogsdev since we have no proper archive of the site itself, which is still important. I would also note that he did actually suggest he would do more; Whenever the page is back up.
Should we put a note somewhere on the Main Page on the CWCki's recent downtime and its return? [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 00:59, 22 October 2022 (EDT)


Not sure how much we have, though there's some comedy goldmine that I believe we have/should put importance on if we don't. Like the "ARE YOU READY TO OPEN YOUR MIND TO NEW EXPERIENCES? YES OR NO (scribbles on yes)". [[User:IJustDontCareAnymore|IJustDontCareAnymore]] 08:49, 18 April 2009 (CEST)

== Consolidate Begging/Jesus Christ Counter ==


==Quote of the day==
Seeing as the "Days since last begged for cash" and the "days since last claiming to be jesus" counters are identical, I think it might make sense to consolidate them. I think it would be more meaningful to simply have a counter for how many days its been since there has been any sighting/communication from Chris considering its pushing 100 days and isn't showing any signs of stopping.[[User:Penis|Penis]] ([[User talk:Penis|talk]]) 17:25, 25 October 2022 (EDT)
I added a Quote of the Now to the main page, to highlight some of the fucked up shit Chris has said before. I was conflicted if it should go on the top page or bottom of the page. Personally I like the top because it's like a grabber quote sort of deal but if anyone has a better idea, by all means change to where you think it is. --[[User:Champthom|Champthom]] 04:39, 2 June 2009 (CEST)
:We might as well replace the counter with a days since we've last heard from Chris or just have the Jesus counter; the separate counters served their purpose back when Chris was regularly writing letters and idea of Chris calming to be Jesus was still new but I agree it's not really needed anymore. Also don't forget to sign your posts with four tildes. --[[User:Finnegan|Finnegan]] ([[User talk:Finnegan|talk]]) 23:53, 24 October 2022 (EDT)
:Agree. Maybe we could go about it by removing both counters from Main Page and modifying the Incarceration one. What was the date of last communication, something from [[Praetor Jail Art]]?

Putting it near the bottom of the page seems counterintuitive, I like it where it is. However, is this just CWC quotes or memorable statements in general?

Been thinking about adding a template at the top of Main Page basically saying CWCki could use more editors since there's a backlog of info to add and info is continuously being released which needs to be added into articles. [[User:Hurtful Truth Level|Hurtful Truth Level]] ([[User talk:Hurtful Truth Level|talk]]) 17:15, 21 May 2023 (EDT)


Should I make a separate article about them or just write a little blurb in the article about Cole Smithey?

Turkey Tom's Chris Chan Documentary has been out for a few weeks now and its pretty good. I think its worthy of being added to the documentaries in the "New? Start Here!" section. However, I can also see that there is limited space on that tab. Perhaps we should have a dedicated article for Chris Chan documentaries and link that? There's so many to choose from, and more get created every year at this point. [[User:Penis|Penis]] ([[User talk:Penis|talk]]) 17:33, 7 June 2023 (EDT)

:I don't think a page on his video is warranted, because Chris hasn't reacted to it. As for a documentaries article, maybe the [[Christubers]] or [[Chris in the media (podcasts and vlogs)]] pages could be modified to mention those?

== Readding Improvement template to Main Page ==


==Looking for a copypasta or an image of said copypasta==
Since there are a lot of active projects, I thought the [[:Template:Improvement‎‎]] could be brought back and added to the main page again. Maybe replacing Quote of the Now since not much is happening with Chris currently (Quote can be added back in if something does happen).

"The encyclopedia about" line

Currently it reads "The encyclopedia about Christian Weston Chandler." Should we change that to read "Chris Chan" or "Christine Weston Chandler" instead? Christian hasn't been his name for years. Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 03:27, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

My personal preference is the latter (Christine). Alternatively: "The encyclopedia about the author of Sonichu". --Little Owl (talk) 04:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
I say, focus on "Chris-Chan". Officially CWCki policy is to stick with Chris's TRUE and ORIGINAL gender, so "Christine" isn't typically used in spite of the name-change legally happening. Plus, Chris-Chan is the name that garnered the most attention anyways. KingClark (talk) 10:18, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
"Chris Chan" would be convenient since the File:CWCiki Introduction.jpg uses Christian, and "Chris Chan" has been a nickname for both "Christian" and "Christine". Otherwise we would need a new CWCki Intro image with "Christine" to avoid confusion. Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 12:58, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Something like this? — "The encyclopedia about Chris-Chan, the author of Sonichu". --Little Owl (talk) 20:37, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Okay with me. Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 07:56, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
Chris has been fine with being referred to as Chris post-namechange to Christine, so I think if we were to change it, Chris-Chan/Chris Chan would be the best way to do it. Most people refer to him as Chris as opposed to Christian or Christine anyway. --Abaddon (talk) 01:23, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Someone on the CWCki Discord suggested linking to Chris Chan as a way to link to his different names. Thoughts? Also, should it be written with or without the hyphen? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 07:56, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
I agree with Hurtful here, chris chan is a much more well known name and is normally the first thing we think of when we talk about chris. But i also think we should add a 'creator of sonichu' to the tagline too, similar to what little owl thought of. Mon1ka (talk) 4:01am, 26th of april 2021 (utc)

While we're at it, should we change the disclaimer at the bottom? It seems like a set-up for a punchline about Chris's inability to understand what does and does not qualify as "parody", since the subject of the wiki is a real person. KingClark (talk) 06:25, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

The editor who added the parody line explained his reasoning in a CWCki Club post. I think he has a point. Much of the narrative about Chris is framed by trolls who manipulated him. Chris Chan the Internet personality is basically a parody of Chris Chandler the person. Also many CWCki pages, especially earlier ones, tend to be heavy on the mockery. What would you have in mind to change the dislaimer to? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 07:57, 28 April 2021 (UTC)

Future of coping and begging counters

In light of the incest shit and Chris' eviction, do you think we still need the begging and coping counters? FokkerTISM (talk) 05:20, 1 August 2021 (UTC)

I think that they should probably be taken down at some point and the page should be reorganized, but not until Chris has been detained. We are approaching the end of Christory as it once was, but we're still not there just yet. KingClark (talk) 11:07, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
I've gone ahead and removed them now he's actually in custody. FokkerTISM (talk) 03:00, 2 August 2021 (UTC)

Reorganization

After taking down the counters, the page looks weirdly asymmetrical. Could we compensate for this by making each batch of DYK entries longer, or move the CWCki news section to the other side while letting Da Update be longer instead? KingClark (talk) 08:51, 8 August 2021 (UTC)

I think we should make the DYK batches longer, as making Da Update longer would defeat the purpose of it being a way to see all recent happenings related to CWC. Also, since I might as well bring it up here, should we add some type of counter related to Chris being arrested? Or would that be too redundant? Lez (talk) 11:23, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
Might be worth putting up a new counter for how many days Chris has been in jail, considering he's being held without bond and he got a continence until at least November. --Holdek (talk) 18:38, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Re-add the discord link

The discord link was disabled a little while ago, but the discord is now accepting new members again so the link being dead is not necessary, so I think it should be re-added. Good username (talk) 20:50, 20 September 2021 (UTC)

  • Nvm I just figured out that i can fix it. Good username (talk) 21:49, 21 September 2021 (UTC)

Wonky formatting

Something is off with the formatting of the Main Page, I feel this needs to fixed as soon as possible. PsychoNerd (talk) 23:01, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

I think Good username's edits to the prison counter messed something up. I'm gonna revert everything there. --4CentUser (talk) 23:07, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
Yep, that fixed it. --4CentUser (talk) 23:08, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

The formatting of the front page is off again

With the addition of more counters the front page is off sided once more. Does anyone have any ideas on a good way to fill the space on the right? We could always just get rid of a couple of lines on Did You Know. Ideas are welcome. Good username (talk) 17:59, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

I wouldn't mind reducing the number of DYK entries per block (maybe down to 15, or 10 if that's necessary) in favor of having more entries in the randomizer. I tried fixing the formatting on the thing but I couldn't figure it out, and sometimes the template is blank. It may be worth merging the counters into one combined template, though – that might fix some of the formatting problems. KingClark (talk) 20:51, 1 November 2021 (UTC)
I have proceeded to redistribute the DYK entries to ten entries per blocks, and merge {{DYK}} (Usage) and {{Did you know}} (Usage) back together since the latter merely called the former with a parser function. For reference, Wikipedia has eight entries. I may not be able to delete {{DYK}} (Usage) due to Chris having edited the template back in 2010. --Little Owl (talk) 22:26, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Jail templates

One of the jail templates should mention that Chris intends to post the info of people who contact him. Maybe in the Incarceration Counter? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 23:00, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Motherfucker

The "encyclopedia about" line could use an update. How about "The premier encyclopedia on Chris Chan, the author of Sonichu and literal motherfucker."? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 05:49, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

I mean, more and more people are flocking to this website from that for one thing, and this site is pretty much the most comprehensive thing about Chris there is. Even Geno's Documentary series is just a CliffNote version of the site. So I say we update it to that. Psycho (talk) 06:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Blanked pages

Whats the deal with all the blanked pages? Is anyone else getting that when logged out? Finnegan (talk) 05:37, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Marvin adjusted some settings. Are things loading better now? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 16:50, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Yes they are. I think it's safe to shut off the loading news template. Psycho (talk) 16:56, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Looks like it's happening again... is this an attack or just "normal" wiki issues? --Finnegan (talk) 17:18, 29 October 2022 (EDT)

CopperCab

Not sure where to put this, but CopperCab privated the second part of his interview with Chris, so if anyone has a copy put it in there.

Downtime

Should we put a note somewhere on the Main Page on the CWCki's recent downtime and its return? Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 00:59, 22 October 2022 (EDT)

  • Yeah, I think that'd be ideal. Psycho (talk) 06:17, 22 October 2022 (EDT)
  • Where would be a good place? Thinking maybe the CWCki News template or writing it directly into Main Page between the Welcome and New? boxes. Hurtful Truth Level (talk) 06:59, 22 October 2022 (EDT)
    • I was thinking just editing the downtime template for that. Psycho (talk) 07:30, 22 October 2022 (EDT)

Consolidate Begging/Jesus Christ Counter

Seeing as the "Days since last begged for cash" and the "days since last claiming to be jesus" counters are identical, I think it might make sense to consolidate them.
