| Welcome to the Kingdom Hearts Community Portal. This is where the community, small as it currently is, can come to discuss the wiki.

| Hey guys, I'm [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] and I've invited all editors here to address some stuff for reviving this wiki. Please chime in however you like. I'll break it into headings. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

| ==Expansion== | | <small>Visit the Third District! Get involved with community projects and other needed work!</small> |
| I'm getting together a list of ideas on a user subpage for expansion of the wiki; mostly it's ideas for articles, but there are some other things as well. You can look at it at [[User:Scottch/Revive]], and feel free to edit the page to add something you think the wiki should have an article on. If everyone is ok with the general idea of the list (and of course we can always add/remove stuff later), I'll move it to a page that's not in my userspace. To create an article, just click a red link and start typing the content. Articles don't have to be perfect right away. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

| ==Images==
| | <small>Visit the Fourth District! Find the wiki's popular content and learn about the wiki! |
| A bunch of images are going to get deleted. Remember that images of copyrighted characters, like the organization members and whatnot, can't just be used on a whim. They have to be fair use, which if my impressions are right, basically means this:
| | |colspan="1"|[[File:Traverse Town 02 KH3D.png|200px|Visit the Fifth District|link=KHWiki:Traverse_Town/5th District]] |
| | | <br> |
| #Source info.
| | <small>Visit the Fifth District! Meet the staff! |
| #Only one picture per idea or concept; three different similar pictures of a character wouldn't be ok.
| | |- |
| #Doesn't limit the copyright holder from making money off of it (you usually won't have to worry about this with pictures).
| | |colspan="5"|[[File:Symbol - Keyhole.png|75px|center|link=KHWiki:Traverse Town/World Exit]]<br> |
| | | <center><small>Exit Traverse Town. Don't worry, you can find us in other places, too!</small></center> |
| I think promotional photos, like the pictures found on [[Wikipedia:Organization XIII|Wikipedia's Organization XIII article]] are okay because they're used to promote the game.
| | |} |
| | | {{Traverse Town}} |
| A number of images lack sourcing info of any kind and are excessive in use - being used for decoration, rather than informative. Unfortunately, Wikia doesn't really allow this :-( I've tagged several for deletion and they'll probably get deleted soon by a staff member, but if you think one that was deleted was really fair use, don't panic; I saved all the pictures on my hard drive in case that happened. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
| |
| *Update, they're deleted. I'll save them temporarily in case someone disagrees. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 05:09, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

| ==Titles== | |
| I'm wondering about titles for the [[Organization]] members; should the page titles be just the name, or the full name and "title" they carry? Here's screenshots of both possibilites for the [[Axel]] article:

| [[Image:Org XIII Title II.PNG|500px]]
| |
| | |
| What does everyone think? [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| JUST THE NAMES IN THE TITLES PLEASE! whats in the name goes into the URL, URLs should be kept short

| *I was originally advocating the full title, but I'm starting to think you're right. Those would be long titles. Of course, Axel's is the longest, os it's not really representative of the length (I just used it becausae it's the only article on the XIII we've got right now), but still, short names might be better.

| ==Administrators==
| |
| I have no idea who is going to even be here for editing, but eventually, if we have any growth at all, especially in membership, we're going to get vandals and spammers. Staff members can help out (Look at [[Special:Listusers/staff]] and go talk to them on their [http://www.wikia.com Central Wikia] talk page) if you see any of that happening in [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes.]] They can also be reached in IRC on the irc.freenode.net network, in #wikia (to join, type "/server irc.freenode.net" and then "/join #wikia").
| |
| | |
| It may get to the point where it is no longer convenient to rely on staff members for vandal/spam cleanup, so eventually we'll have to find a way to come to a consensus and appoint ourselves an admin (I'm guessing we discuss it amongst ourselves and then inform a staff member who would make that person a sysop). Any ideas on how we can do this are welcome, as I've got none. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
| |
| *Well, I can help on spam and vandalism... I'm cleaning the Heartless page as I speak... Making them into articles and whatnot.--[[User:Dreyfus2006|Dreyfus]] 05:08, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :: OK, looks like two good admin candidates here, unless there are any objections I will set Scottch and Dreyfus as admins when I return from my week being Christmassy -- [[User:Sannse|sannse]] [[User_talk:Sannse|(talk)]] 10:47, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
| |
| | |
| :::I volunteer also, I guess. I've been a large editor of Kingdom Hearts articles at Wikipedia, as seen [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Apostrophe here]. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 06:36, 30 December 2006 (UTC) | |

| ==This Page==
| |
| Community Portals are places to bring up issues to everyone on the wiki, so if you have something that you'd like everyone's attention or need help or whatever, you can edit here. To reply to any section, just click the "edit" button in the right margin or the edit button at the top of the page to edit the entire page. I've added <nowiki> a "__NEWSECTIONLINK__" bit to the top of the page; as long as that's there, you can start a new heading by clicking the "+" button on top of the page, so please don't remove the "__NEWSECTIONLINK__". </nowiki>
| |
| | |
| <nowiki>One more thing: it's a good idea to sign comments you make with 4 tildaes: ~~~~. </nowiki>This will put your username as a link to [[Special:Mypage|your userpage]] and also put a date and timestamp on it. This can help us keep track of who says what. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 09:11, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

| == <nowiki>{{SITENAME}}</nowiki> change ==
| |
| | |
| I've asked if the SITENAME (which appears when you type <nowiki>{{SITENAME}}</nowiki> and is the heading for all project namespace pages) can be changed from "Kingdom Hearts Wiki" to "Kingdom Hearts", since it's shorter and more manageable, and more standard to other Wikia wikis. However, I told them I'd see if anyone has any objections. So, anyone? [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 04:32, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
| |
| *Never mind, [http://www.wikia.com/index.php?title=Forum:SITENAME_change%3F&diff=61222&oldid=61220 someone brought up] a couple things that make it a bad idea. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 04:50, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

| Huge thanks to everyone who is helping expand the wiki! It's coming along great. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 00:18, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

| = IRC =
| |
| | |
| I've set up an IRC channel for us at freenode (irc.freenode.net). There's the main Wikia channel at #wikia, but now we have #khwiki. If we oculd get together here and there, it'd be great! [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 10:46, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

| | |
| = Images in context? =
| |
| Hey, what do any editors think about the images being in context of the game? I think it might be better to have them from the game wherever possible, rather than just from a Disney movie, but we can't have it both ways due to fair use rules. So, can I get some opinions? [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 11:59, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
| |
| *Oh another thing, can people who uploaded images have actual ''links'' to the websites where they got them? Without a source, it's not really fair use. I hate to be a nag, but it's important that the wiki remains free content. [[User:Scottch|Scottch]] 12:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
