EoFF Loves Wiki Week


Psychotic wins!

We're redoing the previous attempt to inspire members to get members to add things to the Eyes on Final Fantasy Wiki; this time, with qwerty flair! That's right, qwerty will be joining me in judging this event. Now, the goal of the event is to add submissions to the Eyes on Final Fantasy Wiki, the winner gets a completely remodeled wiki page (done by the Events Committee), and their name at the front of the Wiki for two weeks as the Wiki Week Winner!

For those who didn't know, Community Drop down tab --> EoFF Wiki

Now, you will earn points by, if you didn't guess, making additions to the wiki. You will record what changes you have made here (http://www.eyesonff.com/members/wiki/memberlist/wikicompetition) (once you join you'll see a place for you to place your additions under, please, do NOT tamper with other people's submissions we WILL be checking), however posting in the thread will let us see chronologically what's going on and bring things to our attention faster. Hell, use the thread as a party, go wild and have fun. Each submission will earn from .5-6 points, via a point system which me and qwerty have made. We will be the judges, don't worry, we'll be fair. =P

Here's a few rules:

1) All changes you claim must be made by you. We will check the page history, and if you claim to do stuff that you didn't actually do, well there is such a thing as disqualification.

2) All links must be in the proper form. If links are wrong, then no points will be given. Momiji spent a lot of time to make most of the links good, so respect his effort!

3) This competition is a friendly competition. So don't undo what other people change unless you can improve it. Even so, we would prefer if you hold off until we award the previous person points beore editing that page.

4) To link to a page where you made changes, add a brief description of what you did on this page. Makes it easier to give points.

We will have a 2 day sign up period, however you may still join (please?) afterward, just at a disadvantage obviously, as everyone else will have already started earning points! You may post that you wish to here, or PM Goldenboko (me).

Seriously? Community --> drop down tab --> EoFF Wiki

It's, like, right under Front S... ohh, nevermind. People here don't use the Front Site.

Yeah, it's right under community, lemme make sure everyone knows where that is *edit*

There is a need for me to be an asshole, and that need is dire. It has to do with requiring souls to continue feeding.

Shlup
02-17-2009, 01:18 AM
And there's a need for me to tell you to stfu and stick to the topic. Balzac quit mod whoring and Tav gather your souls at some lolicon board or something. Assholery is forbid.

EDIT: I'm keeping my header on the scoreboard page though. So there.

I'd join but stupid work blocks any url starting with www.</>eyesonff</>.com so I can't.

Im going to make as many wiki improvements as i can now without signing up just to make it harder for people to get points.

edit: not really but i'll make a few

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 03:53 PM
Ugh, fine! You know what? I'm just gonna sign up everyone who posted in the thread!

Competition starts now. Record all your edits (preferably with links) here (http://www.eyesonff.com/members/wiki/wiki_week) and update the thread that you've updated something!

Posting a new article will get you an extra point remember that! All submissions will be given a score by me and qwert. You have till next Sunday, good luck, and go edit the wiki!

Psychotic
02-22-2009, 04:12 PM
I'm unstriking my stuff as soon as your lock expires, you little golden bastard. You can give me 0 points all you want, but you don't mess up a man's bullet points. It's just not done.

Screwing with bullet points around here will get you SHOT. I know. I am from the STREETS.

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 04:14 PM
Oh? Let's go, bitch. (at least put some separator between what you did before and after the start kthx).

Page will be unlocked soon enough, I had to make my edits =P

Laddy
02-22-2009, 04:22 PM
I gave jessweeee an updated, if somewhat small profile, someone that cool needs a larger profile!

You keep locking pages, GB. >=[

Momiji
02-22-2009, 04:23 PM
Also, keep in mind that I'll know if someone is overembellishing on the progress page-- I have the wiki set to an RSS feed, so I can see everything that everyone does. >;D

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 04:23 PM
When did I enter this?

When you posted. It was a binding contract :p


You keep locking pages, GB. >=[

I need to run the event, you can post what you did in this thread while you wait for the progress page to unlock


Also, keep in mind that I'll know if someone is overembellishing on the progress page-- I have the wiki set to an RSS feed, so I can see everything that everyone does. >;D

I tease you, but you know, after things like this, deep down, I love you.

EDIT: We have points on the board! Laddy takes the lead!

Momiji
02-22-2009, 04:32 PM
Also, it would make me infinitely happy if people fix the links in member pages so they are no longer red and link to where they are supposed to-- just in case you run out of content ideas, there's plenty of fixing to do! :D

However, I took care of all the other sections way back when-- then I decided I cba to go through that entire memberlist one by one. I did enough of that when Tav and I imported all of the names over from the old wiki.

demondude
02-22-2009, 04:34 PM
This is slightly more interesting than I expected.

Why is scrumpleberry on the wiki competition page? She can't edit the wiki.

I did some other stuff, so check it out, bird.

Now I'm done for real. (http://www.eyesonff.com/members/wiki/election/the_baotw_party)

And don't give me this "But you already did a BAoTW page!" crap neither. The BAoTW group and the BAoTW elections party are two very different things and if you disagree you are wrong because YOU DON'T KNOW, MAAAN. YOU WEREN'T THERE. VIETsmurfINGNAM YOU SONUVABITCH.

I did re-use some of the text from the group page but I've added a lot more elections-related stuff including links and banners.

Put it in your progress page and reap the rewards.

Laddy
02-22-2009, 05:54 PM
I love that penguin car. Oh, and I added yet more stuff, bird.

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 05:59 PM
Good job, however it doesn't stop Psychotic from jumping over all of you with his max'd score submission (5 points it'd be 6 if he had created the page :p).

Psychotic
02-22-2009, 06:00 PM
Put it in your progress page and reap the rewards.Done.

I love that penguin car. It's made of nachos and has poptarts for wheels. Spritz made it. Man, I miss that guy.

Goldenboko

*peaks to see it isn't there* lolwut?

Laddy
02-22-2009, 06:12 PM
I extended Yar-Yars page because it was ridiculously short.

Laddy
02-22-2009, 06:34 PM
Oh, my bird! I modified one page and added another! Check it out!

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 06:34 PM
Call me bird one more time and I'll modify your face. :)

Laddy
02-22-2009, 06:45 PM
Why?
Oh, and I like making this hard for you and modified another page. XD

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 06:52 PM
If I keep seeing 1-2 word edits, or even 1 sentence edits at this rate I'm going to get sticker with handing out points. Honestly, fixing 2 names? Too minor.

Laddy
02-22-2009, 06:54 PM
Alright, GoBo. I added you a paragraph on your profile because I wuv you!

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 06:56 PM
More acceptable, a paragraph of that size is the bare minimum for editing existing pages if you expect points.

EDIT: The point of a wiki is that anyone can add whatever they want to say, if Laddy is going to be a hippie and only add in nice comments so be it, Psy wants to completely retool groups and sections that he enjoyed being part of so be it, what's gotten into you today? =p

Laddy
02-22-2009, 06:59 PM
Yeah, DD. I'm a nice guy.

demondude
02-22-2009, 07:02 PM
Maybe I'm becoming grumpy, or maybe I haven't had my juice. I just think somebody navigating the wiki isn't going to be interested in chunks of text praising somebody who they have no idea about. If I wanted to learn who a certain member was, then I wouldn't be in any luck.

EDIT: I got no problem with you, Laddy. =p I'm just getting angsty.

Goldenboko
02-22-2009, 07:03 PM
Then fix that, and add something that's more then "Is a member from Britain" in your future submissions. Yeah, I went there. Argument over.

demondude
02-22-2009, 07:04 PM
Any information is good information. =p

Anyway, I have tea now (lol Brit) I'll stop going on.

Momiji
02-22-2009, 07:35 PM

That's exactly what I was talking about when I mentioned overembellishing your progress list. Quality over quantity, suckers. You're lucky I'm not the one handing out points, because personally, half of these shouldn't really count. :p

Signed, your friendly EoFF Wikinazi :heart:

Goldenboko

Alright, the competition is over now, because it has been far more then a week... :p

Psychotic wins! Narrowly edging out Laddy. This means Psychotic gets his name in big shiny letters on the front page, and can have us (the event committee), completely remodel his userpage. However, I noticed Psychotic does have a pretty nice userpage already, so I am going to give him the choice of passing on that prize if he wishes to keep his old one.

demondude
03-01-2009, 03:15 PM

scrumpleberry
03-01-2009, 03:48 PM
Maybe he could give his prize to another member whose page is not snazzy.

You could have kept this going for a month! Noone would have noticed, you would have gotten a lot done.

Laddy
03-01-2009, 03:51 PM

Not... really... We might do this again some time, but, overall, I don't think we where squeezing much more out of this xD

If Psy decides to give up his userpage overhaul, it'd go down to the person next in line in points (Laddy).

EDIT: Btw, good job to Loony BoB, who managed to go negative one hundred thousand.

demondude
03-01-2009, 03:59 PM
Oh yeah, I edited BoB's section with those points.

I mean ... =(

You could make a movie out of that. I suggest Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale as leading actors! :monocle:
