The IFQ now has its own Wiki on the IF page to check it out ( or if your one that has the credentials to change something on it ) check it out here

Nice! This is fantastic Kang! It's great to have further historic records for the ages... I mean... who knows, in 2082, this might be real powerful history here! It even helps us now to see just how much we've already evolved since the IFQ began... good work.

Some general comments for anyone looking to help update the Wiki :

Linking to anything on the wiki itself doesn't need a full http:// type address. Simply find the name of the page (the very top line of every page) and put it in [[ ]].

So Kang's page would be [[User:Kang|Kang]]. Note that I use the | symbol to seperate the address and what I want the link to say.

If you're linking to a page in the City forums themselves, then you do need to use a full url address. Then you simply use 1 set of square brackets, and a space like this :

[http://www.cityofif.com City of If]

This will link to the City of If showing a link looking like this : City of If

Avoid using the header with the single equals sign like this : = Header =. Always use == Header== as your main header, and continue downwards from there. Subheadings would be ===Subheading===.

Look out for things you can link in your, or any article you're reading. But don't go overboard. If something is mentioned many times in just a few sentences, only one of them need be made a link. Any word you see that is a key word of IF, such as Storygame, Fables or Fatbacks, SGoTM, and other jargon, make sure it is linked back to the appropriate page.

If such a page doesn't exist - make it!

Bullet point lists are real easy on wiki. Just put a * before any line you want to have a bullet point. They are a nice way to format lists.

Happy Ifki'ing[/list]

WOW! That's ...

All I have to say is "Wow!" Kang. I know how irritating coding is and getting together an informative but fun to read article with it? Takes a lot of patience.

My props to you. (This is usually done with a presentment of arms, but it seems an evil cat has stolen mine.. and it's really late.)

it did take a lot of patience to learn Wiki coding that i have never even worked with. much less trying remembering CSS coding for Myspace when i make changes there and phpbb coding for the IFQ so over all my hasn't exploded yet ( which is quite a surprise)

WOW, this looks excellent! I know nothing about coding, so i'm doubly impressed! And you even included by meagre reign as editrix. o-) Awesome!
