User talk:Infernocanuck
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Hello, Infernocanuck
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. Take your time and start slowly.
- 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.
If you plan on sticking around, feel free to make your mark on the ED:Map and join the all new ED Facebook, the ED Myspace the ED Bebo and follow the ED Twitter.

[edit] How to be an Image Czar
It's pretty easy. Just scroll through pages and find ones that don't have images but need them. Or, for something like a popular image macro make a gallery. Click the link on the left that says "upload a file". Be descriptive, etc. Then put the image in the article. When you come across cool images on the internet, see if they should be put on ED. We are trying to collect all of the popular image macros. Articles with images are more interesting, so add them. If there are a lot of images which are appropriate, then make a gallery.
- Example of a gallery is limecat, raptorjesus
- Find articles that need images at the list of articles with the boring template.

bursting paragraph from a humble literary product of lol internets.
