Wiki editing guide request

Could someone work on a guide to explain the basics of wiki editing? Lots of people think they need to know a lot about Chris to edit the CWCki when really basic wiki editing is probably more important. Nothing fancy - mostly how to add images, how to link, that sort of thing. Hell, you could probably rip off Wikipedia's guide but rework it, maybe make it a bit Chris related. First person to do so will get an award for their userpage of sort. --Champthom 04:21, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

New userbox template

Medal of Merit: This user has done tremendous service to CWCki and deserves recognition as such. CWCki Jerkop: This user is a Jerkop on CWCki who bans vandals from this region. The Gold Star Bounty: This user is a Gold Star Bounty Hunter who has rightfully claimed the Gold Star as a bounty for completing a special CWCki assignment. Eurofag: This user is a Eurofag and insists on using unnecessary vowels.

A random, hopefully useful byproduct of me getting rid of my alleged egofaggotry... The award templates in CWCki are, in my opinion, a bit huge and ugly, and I've long wondered why we don't have actual good userbox templates. You know, small and modest ones. =) So, here is one now: {{Userbox}}.

The colors can be customised pretty easily. To the left you can see what kind of results you can get with this template; edit this section to see source code.

Note that I've not replaced any of the existing award/userbox templates yet; I think creating alternative versions of the current boxes might be a viable strategy instead. So, any opinions, people? --wwwwolf (wake me when you need me) 14:21, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
