From Create Your Own Story

Current revision as of 02:25, 14 February 2016

Please make sure to include the title of the story as a category on each page you post. If you don't know how to add categories, please review the Tutorial, especially Basic page format.--Platypus 10:16, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

If you create a new page and the links are already blue, edit your page and change your links. Do not write over existing pages from other stories. Your editing has been reverted.--Platypus 10:21, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

I'm not familiar with the browser you're using. It may be reacting strangely with the site. This site is very quirky and does react oddly for some users. You'll have to be very careful that you aren't overwriting other people's work if your browser is incorrectly displaying red links that lead to existing pages. --Platypus 12:33, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

I really couldn't say why your browser would prevent you from starting new stories. You're clearly able to post pages with working links. As for deleting your work, you're going to have to understand that I cannot allow anyone to write over existing pages in other stories. Your text is not lost though. Go to the pages that you overwrote and click on the history tab. You can look back at your deleted text, copy it, and paste it onto a new page that hasn't already been claimed by another story. --Platypus 13:23, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Since that story has been abandoned, I'll allow it. Just don't get confuse RAMPAGE with Rampage, the latter one being very active and definitely not abandoned. --Platypus 13:47, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Second warning. Uncategorized pages will be edited or deleted.--Platypus 14:31, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

You have to stop overwriting other people's work. If you overwrite one more page, you will be banned from the site. I cannot keep monitoring everything you do. You must pay attention or stop posting. --Platypus 14:57, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Final warning. Your uncategorized pages are now being deleted. If you continue to post uncategorized pages, you will be banned from the site.--Platypus 15:25, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

You really need to slow down and pay attention to what's going on. I understand that you might want to post as many pages as you possibly can as quickly as you can, but speed-posting just makes a mess of the site. Once you post a page, LOOK at it. If the category is in red, and you're working on an established story, then you've posted the category incorrectly. If you've overwritten someone else's page, your work will get reverted back... and any new pages you write using links you've established will end up orphaned when the page is reverted. Orphaned pages will end up getting deleted.

You also might want to look at your spelling and punctuation. Nobody wants to read a story that looks like it was slapped down at top speed with no thought given to coherency. --Platypus 15:56, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

To start a new story, type a title in the search box on the left hand side of the screen. If no one has used that title yet, the site will tell you that there is no page by that name and it will give you the option of creating a page by that name. Don't keep trashing existing stories in your efforts to create new ones. --Platypus 02:25, 14 February 2016 (UTC)
