Well, a little about me (but not too much, that would be BO-ring).

I started following the LG15 thing sometime mid-October when everyone already knew it was fake.  I think this new medium for telling a story is very very cool.  To tell you the truth, I'm not really happy with where the story is going anymore (for a number of reasons), but I keep coming back.  Why?  Because somewhere along the way I got hooked on the LGpedia.  I'm a fan of wiki models but I was a little intimidated by Wikipedia and didn't get around to learning to post on it.  LGpedia seemed like a friendlier place, with more newbies and more work to be done.  So now even though I don't get a kick from the series, I still really like editing the wiki.

The userbox templates at the bottom were made by yours truly, except the [[Template: Userbox Terrorslurpee | orange slurpee]] one (by [[User:Treefunk | Treefunk]]) and [[Template: User 300edits | 300 edits]] (by... someone).  I'm still learning how to use different aspects of the wiki... right now I'm interested in user templates (clearly) so I'm probably going to play with these Userbox ones for a while, or until something else catches my attention.  Next, I have to learn about making tables and templates for videos and stuff.  They seem like very useful tools for organizing content.

=Stuff I want to do=
 +
This little section is like a to-do list for me.  I'll just be writing down things that I'd like to see on the wiki.  If any of these sound like something you'd like to work on, do feel free to pitch in!
  
 +
==Articles that need some TLC==
 +
As of late I've noticed some important articles need to be updated to reflect what's been happening in the series.  An example of such an article is [[Daniel]], which hasn't been majorly updated since before the (fake) ceremony it seems.  In this section I'll keep a list of articles that I think need work.  Sometimes I come across them while I'm busy working on something else, and then I forget that I meant to get back to them.  That shouldn't happen anymore!<br>
 +
If you see an article you'd like to work on that's on this list, by all means, jump right in!  Part of the reason I put them on here is so other people will think to improve on them, not just me.  =)
 +
*[[Daniel]]
 +
*[[The Order]] -- it's greatly improved now but still needs work
 +
*[[Bree's parents]]
 +
*[[Tachyon]]
 +
*[[Cassieiswatching]]
 +
*[[LG15 Spin-offs]]
 +
*A page or userbox on the responsible use of the darned '''Preview''' button.  I love seeing new people get interested in the wiki, but it's a drag having to remind them of the good reasons to avoid numerous little edits.  We need a standard thingie we can use over and over with little work.  I plagiarized Wikipedia's article into [[Help:Show preview]], but I don't think that'll do much by itself.

+
==LG15 Music==
−
 
+
*I created a page called [[LG15 Soundtrack]] listing all the music appearing thus far in the LG15 videos.  It includes links to the artists' pages and links to listen (and sometimes download for free!) the pieces themselves.
−
{{Userbox Lonelybeast}}
+
*The information it currently contains is up-to-date and accurate... only to the best of my knowledge.  So please check out the page and add anything that's missing, or correct me if I slipped up!
−
{{Userbox Pmonkeyworld}}
+
*It needs to be updated.  If this is something that interests you, update the soundtrack when a new video comes on.  Even if you haven't worked with tables before, I think you'll find it's pretty intuitive.  Just click the edit tab and it'll all make sense.  If it doesn't, just ask =)

*Eliminate all instances of [http://en.wikipedia.org According to Wikipedia], "According to _________", etc. and replace with real references.
 +
**By "real references" I mean little numbers (like so [1]) next to the claim you are making and a References section on the bottom of the article.  It would just be less distracting, and it would make it easier for people to look up a reference too, rather than reading through the whole article again.
 +
**I already did some research into this.  Apparently our wiki has something called Cite.php which is simple code that you can use to make references like the ones I described.  It automatically makes them into a list at the bottom of the article.

*First, the more entertaining project: adding to the [[LG15 Music]] article.  I would like to add a section titled "Playlist" or "Soundtrack" which would have the following content,
 
−
**All the songs features on the series thus far, organized by order of appearance.
 
−
**Video in which the song is played
 
−
**Artist and album
 
−
**Where you can download the music legitimately (preferably for free when available).

OIC is no longer to contribute to the LGPedia on a regular basis. Moving to a new city and starting a new job is time-consuming, so being LGPedia admin is no longer in the cards. Perhaps if and when things settle down, OIC will drop in and make a gazillion lightning edits. LGPedia has been an immense amount of fun, mostly thanks to the interactions with other great LG15 fans and OIC is proud of the long, long way this wiki has come since she started editing. Great job everybody, and see you around Lucy's Balcony or the Cove. 		T sign daniel.jpg

Person information
Age I'm not sure, but I think my price tag is still on.
Portrayed by Owen

Well, a little about me (but not too much, that would be BO-ring).

I started following the LG15 thing sometime mid-October when everyone already knew it was fake. I think this new medium for telling a story is very very cool. To tell you the truth, I'm not really happy with where the story is going anymore (for a number of reasons), but I keep coming back. Why? Because somewhere along the way I got hooked on the LGpedia. I'm a fan of wiki models but I was a little intimidated by Wikipedia and didn't get around to learning to post on it. LGpedia seemed like a friendlier place, with more newbies and more work to be done. So now even though I don't get a kick from the series, I still really like editing the wiki.

If you would like to help me plot the downfall of my purple nemesis, please leave a comment on my talk page.

Stuff I want to do

This little section is like a to-do list for me. I'll just be writing down things that I'd like to see on the wiki. If any of these sound like something you'd like to work on, do feel free to pitch in!

Articles that need some TLC

As of late I've noticed some important articles need to be updated to reflect what's been happening in the series. An example of such an article is Daniel, which hasn't been majorly updated since before the (fake) ceremony it seems. In this section I'll keep a list of articles that I think need work. Sometimes I come across them while I'm busy working on something else, and then I forget that I meant to get back to them. That shouldn't happen anymore!
If you see an article you'd like to work on that's on this list, by all means, jump right in! Part of the reason I put them on here is so other people will think to improve on them, not just me. =)

  • Daniel
  • The Order -- it's greatly improved now but still needs work
  • Bree's parents
  • Tachyon
  • Cassieiswatching
  • LG15 Spin-offs
  • A page or userbox on the responsible use of the darned Preview button. I love seeing new people get interested in the wiki, but it's a drag having to remind them of the good reasons to avoid numerous little edits. We need a standard thingie we can use over and over with little work. I plagiarized Wikipedia's article into Help:Show preview, but I don't think that'll do much by itself.


LG15 Music

  • I created a page called LG15 Soundtrack listing all the music appearing thus far in the LG15 videos. It includes links to the artists' pages and links to listen (and sometimes download for free!) the pieces themselves.
  • The information it currently contains is up-to-date and accurate... only to the best of my knowledge. So please check out the page and add anything that's missing, or correct me if I slipped up!
  • It needs to be updated. If this is something that interests you, update the soundtrack when a new video comes on. Even if you haven't worked with tables before, I think you'll find it's pretty intuitive. Just click the edit tab and it'll all make sense. If it doesn't, just ask =)


Footnotes

  • Eliminate all instances of According to Wikipedia, "According to _________", etc. and replace with real references.
    • By "real references" I mean little numbers (like so [1]) next to the claim you are making and a References section on the bottom of the article. It would just be less distracting, and it would make it easier for people to look up a reference too, rather than reading through the whole article again.
    • I already did some research into this. Apparently our wiki has something called Cite.php which is simple code that you can use to make references like the ones I described. It automatically makes them into a list at the bottom of the article.
    • To learn the basics of footnotes, see Help:Footnotes.
    • If you're ready for the advanced class, see LGPedia:Footnotes.
    • Cite.php was recently installed on the LGpedia. I plan to make full use of it. If you see any pages reeking with "According to _______", let me know and we shall fix it together.
    • Where to download Cite.php. Site has good info on how to use the code too, that's why I included it. You don't need to download it.
