Welcome

Welcome to Legion Wiki. Thanks for your contributions to date, and we hope you'll stick around for the future forseeable :) - Reboot (SoM) talk page 17:24, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Its always great to meet another Legion fan, and doubly so when they share their love for the Legion with other fans. Thanks for sharing your contributions so far, and if there is anything we can do to help you find your way around the site, please let us know. If you are so inclined, tell us a little about yourself on your user page. - Gopher 08:27, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Still trying to completely figure out the site. I am limited by what I have permission to edit, but finding most of the pages are working out really well. I look forward to maybe adding some synopses to same issue pages for comics I have.

At the moment, we have turned off the ability for new users to create new pages, due to a heavy barrage of spamming a few weeks ago. You should be able to edit any page that currently exists, and if a page you want to edit isn't available, we'll be happy to create it for you. I've added some text to your user page so that you can edit it now. We'll review whether it's safe to turn on the page creation functionality in the near future. In the meantime, here are a few tips for adding to discussion pages:

1. You can indent each successive response in a discussion by adding a ":" before your text. The more colons, the more the paragraph will indent. I've added some above for reference.
2. It's also handy to end any discussion posts with "~~~~". The wiki interprets this code as a command to add your user name and the date/time you added the text. Its a good way to keep track of who's saying what.
3. You'll notice in the wiki code for previous tip, I surrouned the 4 tildes with "nowiki" tags. This temporarily tells the wiki not to interpret something as code an to just display it as text. When you want to sign your discussions, don't include the nowiki tags.

Also, please don't be surprised or offended if we move your contributions to a different page or restrcture a page you have edited. We're thrilled to have your contrbutions, but we're trying very hard to keep the basic format of pages and features uniform throughout the wiki. If you don't know where to put something, just take your best guess. As the wiki grows, pages get renamed and content is moved around as a natural part of its development. You'll figure out the basics pretty quickly, and we are happy to help if you have questions. - Gopher 13:23, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I've reduced the autoconfirm (page creation) barrier from the default four days/10 edits to one day/five edits. That should allow you to create pages :).

[CG - I don't think I want to eliminate it completely yet, since we still had a couple of spammer registrations last week, but the lowered barrier should still block the spammers while reducing the inconvenience for actual new users like CTP.] - Reboot (SoM) talk page 16:59, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
