Re: Just getting started[edit source]

Hi Dby0001, welcome to the wiki! I'll answer your questions:

  • I am reluctant to say anything about a hierarchy, considering right now we have ME (founder+admin), you, one other user who made one page, and one vandal from the first day. Most wikis try not to place admins too far above normal users, so please don't look at me as a king or anything. Good, reliable users are eligible for admin promotions right now.
  • We don't have much of any policy right now, but you feel free to go ahead and make a sandbox! User:Dby0001/Sandbox would be a fine location. A sandbox should be made at Weaglepedia:Sandbox at some point.
  • A list of pages/content, I'm afraid not. There's so much to Auburn, and our list of content we do have is so unfortunately short that it's pretty easy to think of things to add.

At this point, I think the best motive for the wiki is just let's write some articles! Be bold, and don't worry about screwing up. My articles are currently focusing on on-campus restaurants and dormitories (being a Quad resident, I started with that area). You have no obligation to follow what I do, so feel free to write about whatever you are knowledgeable about.

Two questions for you:

  1. Where did you hear about Weaglepedia? If a flyer, do you remember where?
  2. Do you have any experience with wikis? I would do well to read your user page before posting these things

Thanks for the answers! And I heard about the wiki from a flyer in Parker. dby0001Talk 22:52, 30 October 2014 (UTC)
