Encyclopedia Dramatica talk:Help
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
This is a MAJOR work in progress. Seasoned editors, feel free to add to it. I would love it if some of the uber wiki nerds could check my sanity (NOT LITERALLY, DUH!) to make sure what I'm saying is both helpful and technically correct.
- It doesn't matter if it's a work in progress. It doesn't even matter what it says. The reason it doesn't matter is because nobody can use this site for anything at all, since all visits get immediately redirected to searcheworld. See my post below. Every page here could be a picture of a cat with a caption on it and it wouldn't make a difference, because ED can not be used. --AdsSuck 08:51, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
So many people need help pages, but stealing from wikipedia is a bad idea for this for most things. Their help pages are FAR too verbose for the general uses we apply here and I hate the way they approach things. --girlvinyl 14:33, 20 Dec 2004 (PST)
Comparing Versions is blank and I don't have access to edit it (and I don't think nonadmins should anyway) so here is my suggestion to add below it: "Click the history tab." Thodin 潅腸 武 18:36, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
Let's add ED admin community and Special:Listadmins somewhere it's easy to find. Samsara 10:00, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- There isn't much point putting ed_admins on there as only admins can post there, and its pretty easy to get to Special:Listadmins via Encyclopedia Dramatica:Administrators which is linked to from every talk page. --Einsidler 10:13, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
Can we put linked footnotes in with this version of Mediawiki? I went to the ToW page to look it up and tried their method here; no go.Voronic 13:35, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

"FAQ" redirects here
but is still mentioned in the intro to the page itself; it should probably be removed. -- Lenoxus 03:11, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
Seriously, WTF at the ads? This site is unusable.
Encyclopedia Dramatica is officially completely unusable.
Every single page I visit here redirects me to http://www.searcheworld.com/rsearch.php?search=customer+service&gs=sf_ron in about 5 seconds.
I can not view a single ED page without pressing the stop button on my browser.
What a load of crap. And yes, it's only this site. On Firefox, I get redirected to searcheworld. On IE7, it just crashes the browser.
You do realize nobody can actually come here and do anything at all because of this? You might as well shut down the site. Apparently the sysadmins here never bother to actually visit their own wiki. No wonder the talk page on Wikipedia about this site is full of people shouting "malware" and "crap". What a shitty web site. --AdsSuck 08:49, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
- That's not what the rest of the million unique hits a day say. Stop being such a whiny crybaby and learn how to use your browser. --zaigertalkplx

- Quit using IE, fgt. --One With The Lulz 20:24, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Page moves?
Okay, newfag to bureaucracy here, how do you request a page move? --One With The Lulz 20:24, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Deleting
How do I delete my account?

Hotkeys not working
Just wondering when/why the hotkeys (E.G. Shift+Alt+X for Random Page) got taken out? Or better yet, when will they be put back in? --Sir giveafuck 00:47, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
Apparently working now Sir giveafuck 01:15, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
