User talk:Boscolai1991

Hi Boscolai1991 -- we are excited to have The World of Seikai as part of the Wikia community!

Starting a new wiki can be overwhelming, but don't worry, the Wikia Community Team is here to help! We have put together a few guides to getting started. They say imitation is the best form of flattery so absolutely check out other wikis on Wikia for ideas on layout, ways to organize your content, etc. We are all one big family at Wikia and the most important thing is to have fun!


 * Our guide to Getting Started gives you 5 things you can do right now to set your wiki up for success
 * We also put together some Advice On Starting a Wiki which provides a more a in-depth look at some of the important things you should consider when building a wiki
 * If you are new to wikis in general than we recommend checking our new user FAQ

If you need help (which trust me we ALL do) you can access our full in-depth help at Help Wikia, or email us through our contact form. Also, you can visit our live #wikia chat channel any time. A lot of the veteran "Wikians" hang out here so its a good place if come if you want to get some advice or simply make friends.

Now, go edit! We look forward to seeing this project thrive!

Best wishes, PanSola

Re: making sysops
Use this: Special:Makesysop. Note that once promoted to sysop and/or Bcrat, you cannot demote them. So make sure you use discretion when doing so. -PanSola 10:04, 13 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Oh yeah you might also want to read the Administrators' how-to guide. As for changing the "layout", I'm not entirely sure what you have in mind, since it seems you already know about the skins and CSS stuff.  Can you be a little more specific? Thanks. -PanSola 10:08, 13 February 2008 (UTC) -PanSola 10:08, 13 February 2008 (UTC)


 * You can use Special:Recentchanges to monitor who has been editing the wiki recently. If you just want a list of users who's ever edited the wiki, Special:Listusers do that, but leaves out the people who did not log in.  As for dismissing the sitenotice, there is a "dismiss" link on the right side for logged-in users.  People who are not logged in cannot dismiss the sitenotice. -PanSola 10:36, 13 February 2008 (UTC)


 * If you just want to un-dismiss the sitenotice for yourself, you can just clear your browser's cookies. If you want to force the sitenotice re-appear for every single user who has dismissed it, go to MediaWiki:Sitenotice_id, and edit it to be a bigger number (initially assumed to be 0). -PanSola 10:53, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Re: CSS
Generally, you can check out w:c:inside:Quartz Skin Customization on how to customize specific CSS components of the skin. In the particular case, the element selector would be "li.widget h2". To learn about CSS in general, one book is Beginning CSS Web Development: From Novice to Professional, though there are a lot of websites on the internet teaching CSS or providing CSS tutorials, tips/tricks for free (just google "CSS tutorial" or something). -PanSola 10:34, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
