Hello, E richard

THIS IS SERIOUS; READ IT.

Congratulations on joining ED! You probably fit into one of these categories:

1. New User
Before making your first article look over ED:101. Try checking out random articles and fixing typos, grammar and/or bullshit where you find them before trying to make a new page. To start with, make multiple small edits to different articles until you have the hang of it. If you don't, it is unlikely that your article will survive for more than sixty seconds and you risk being molested by ED Sysops.
If you don't know anything about wiki formatting and code, please read ED:BASIC and the Style Guide. To start you off:


  • Sign your comments using four tildes (like this ~~~~)
  • To answer a message, reply on the user's talk page.
  • These are the sysops. If you have a problem, talk to them.
These tips will hopefully prevent you from getting raeped by the ED admins.


2. Mediawiki Migrant If you're an experienced wiki user (probably from a Wikipedia offshoot) who knows how to operate, please read ED:101 for offical policy and ED:MIGRANT for tips on assimilation and basic rules.


Whichever you are, to successfully contribute to ED, please take some time to look around, note why other people get banned and don't act like they did.


Communication with other users prevents misunderstandings and can be done through talk pages, TJC and the mailing list and ED IRC. If you need an admin, the list of active ED Sysops will let you know who's around. To chat with or to ask for help from other ED users, then please hit up the experts in #wiki on our IRC.

If you plan on sticking around, feel free to make your mark on the ED:Map and join the ED Facebook, the ED Myspace the ED Bebo and follow the ED Twitter. If that's not enough ED for you, feel free to join the all new ED Forums.



Hey, you

Stop vandalising Palshife. --Mister Six 06:49, 13 Oct 2005 (UTC)

  • I was undoing vandalism. --E_Richard
    • As a general rule, if you're completely deleting something that a moderator (in this case Jacknstock) has reinstated, you're committing vandalism. The remarks made by Starblade were mean, but that's pretty much the MO of Encyclopedia Dramatica. Get over it. --Mister Six 16:25, 13 Oct 2005 (UTC)
      • The meanness wasn't what bothered me. I just seemed like a bunch of meaningless crap. Also, I was unaware that Jacknstock was a mod. There's like 7 million of you guys. :P --E_Richard
        • If it comes up with the message "Reverted edit of X, changed back to last version by Y" then it's probably a mod. To make sure, check the Admins List under "Special pages" on the bottom-left of the screen. --Mister Six 06:26, 14 Oct 2005 (UTC)
