Wiki updates[]
Since we aren't using the Portal or Forum pages on-site for things like this, i'm going to commandeer this page for a while to post about general changes and to-dos that aren't major enough to post on the discussion forum. (Once the site takes off, we can delete all of this.) Please sign individual items with your name if you decide to contribute to this list. — ohkine @ 11:09, October 14, 2010 (UTC)
Recent changes[]
2010-10-23

{{f|Film Name}}
/{{mciss}}

To do[]
2010-10-16[]
Noticed the following problems with the side-bar menu:'Alex Cazelnu' should read and link to 'Alex Cazerne', per the site's stated spelling conventions (official site is 'most canon').'Oliver Poplan' should read and link to 'Olivier Poplin', per the site's stated spelling conventions (official site is 'most canon').The menu item for 'Locations' points to a page with the same name; it should point to Category:Locations instead.The link to the forum works, but the URL is wrong -- it has the word 'Forum' on the end. —ohkine

Is your wiki still planning on leaving wikia?[]
Hello, someone on this wikia wrote on the Anti Wikia Skin Alliance Moving page, that your wikia is moving. Please remove your wikia's name or add your wikia to the Moved Wiki page.
Sorry if I posted on the wrong page, it is often difficult to quickly find where to post.
Thank you. Anno1404 22:35, November 30, 2010 (UTC)
