==Request for bureaucrat tools==
Hi there. I understand that you are the sole bureaucrat on the Wiki, and would like to request for bureaucrat tools so that I can benefit this site to a greater extent. I'd like to create some basic policies (Neutral point-of-view), processes (Requests for deletion) and customise the MediaWiki pages (which only administrators can edit). I'm administrate several Wikis (such as the RuneScape, MechScape, and Supernatural wikis) so I do know what I am doing. I realise that being an extremely new user here, that you may be doubtful of my intentions and I understand fully, but I hope you will consider giving me bureaucrat/sysop tools to benefit the wiki (even if it is temporary/a trial run). I am, of course, a big fan of Erfworld and constantly check the site for Summer Updates. Thanks! [[User:Calebchiam|Calebchiam]] 09:46, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

== New Main Page ==
Well, I went ahead and put up my new main page. Here's the control panel
<center>{{mainpagecontrol}}</center>
You probably should lock those templates so that only registered users can edit them, just like the main page. Hell, you might even want re-lock the main page...

== Need something deleted. ==

I accidentally loaded the image for [[LIAB 20]] to [http://www.erfworld.com/wiki/index.php/File:LIAB_Text_20.jpg LIAB <I>Text</I> 20]. This is gonna cause some problems when the text updates get that far, so it needs to be deleted. I would've taken care of it myself, but I don't have the rights to.

I'll go ahead and send this off to [[User_Talk:Balder|Balder]] too.

==SPAMMERS==

We're getting minced alive by the bots. They're relentless. Please see about installing or setting up some extra anti-spam measures. Cheers mate --[[User:Charles|Charles]] 10:28, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Harknell Note: I've enabled the SimpleCaptcha extension. It's the most basic one just to see what impact this might have on things. If it proves ineffective we can move to a higher level one.

<br>[http://www.erfworld.com/wiki/index.php/Category:Battles Category:Battles] is the name of the current improvement drive. In the category, we only want battles. The BIG ones. So remove the small fights from the category (a good example of one to remove is the [[Opening_Skirmish|Opening Skirmish]].) Add big fights, and flesh out those articles. Especially the [[Battle for Gobwin Knob]]! Maybe the most improved article will get featured :P

{{Stats

|side= [[Gobwin Knob]]
|city manager= [[Parson]]
|level= 5

Gobwin Knob is the [[capital]] [[city]] of [[Gobwin_Knob_(Side)|Gobwin Knob]], the [[side]] by the same name. It is ruled by [[Overlord]] [[Stanley the Tool]]. The city is the location of the [[Battle for Gobwin Knob]].

==Location==

Relative to most of the world, its location is unclear. However, [[Faq]] is located to the west of Gobwin Knob, while [[Transylvito]] is to the South West. The city is roughly 200 [[hex]]es from the [[City_of_Unaroyal|City of Unaroyal]].

Gobwin Knob was constructed within the caldera of a dormant volcano. This position gave the city excellent natural defenses and great wealth as the mountain had many precious gems within it.

==City Zones==

At the conclusion of the [[Battle for Gobwin Knob]], [[Chief Warlord]] [[Parson]] ordered the tunnels to be collapsed. Gobwin Knob was severly damaged during the battle, and was rebuilt to Level 5 by order of [[Stanley the Tool]]. The refurbished city is quite different than the original; it is now smaller, asymmetrical, and tiered; the [[Tower of Efdup]] has been rebuilt, the tunnels have shrunk in size, the Outer Walls now include a gate, and there is a new zone...

<big>'''Welcome to Erfwiki'''</big>

This is a [[Arkentools|tool]]. Use it as the [[Titans]] would.

== Purpose ==

This wiki is meant to keep track of information about [[Erfworld]] and things related to Erfworld. It is the definitive source of [[canon]], [[proposed canon]], and [[speculation]] about the [[story]], [[setting]] and [[Erfworld Mechanics|mechanics]] of the Erfworld universe. Our operating principle is to "[[Useful Information|add useful information]]." Even trivial and tangential information and topics that pass this usefulness test should be added.

== Terms ==

This is a community project, by and for the readers, fans, and [[creators]] of Erfworld. All work on this wiki is considered a contribution, given freely in the spirit of a supportive, collaborative effort. Anything you post or edit to this site may be used by yourself or others within the terms of a [[Creative Commons]] noncommercial license. You also grant unlimited use of any work posted here to the creators of Erfworld, without claim to compensation or attribution. Note that "use" means "we can ''use'' it" not "we ''own'' it." If you post your own fan art of, say, [[Bogroll]] here, you still own it and can use it within the [[guidelines for fan art]]. It's just that you also grant license to the community to use it noncommercially, and to the creators to use it in any way.

== Rules ==

Articles which are not about the Erfworld universe will be a lot like articles in any other wiki. For instance, the article on [[conventions]] can be an account of past and future conventions attended by [[Jamie Noguchi|Jamie]] and [[Rob Balder|Rob]], with no special rules other than to keep things reasonably factual and relevant. Do '''not''' use rules or policies from [[Wikipedia]]. This is '''not''' an encyclopedia, but a [[Arkentool|Tool]].

Articles about the Erfworld universe will have one to three sections: canon, proposed canon, and speculation. An article may start out as speculation, but be elevated to proposed canon or canon over time. For instance, say you are wondering about [[pink dwagons]]. You have seen them in the comic, using a breath weapon that seems to work like bubble gum. You create an article about pink dwagons with your guesses about the function of their breath weapon, and place all your information in a section labeled Speculation, or some of it in that section, and the parts you are pretty sure are close to the way it really works in Erfworld as Proposed Canon. Rob, Jamie, or someone they appoint will take a look at the proposed canon and possibly elevate it to a section called Canon. Canon information can be generally relied on to reflect "the way things are in Erfworld, according to the creators."

==Making Stuff Up==

You are welcome to add your own material to the Erfworld universe. Fan-created material that doesn't conflict with the [[ErfWiki:Canon|Canon]] of Erfworld is called [[ErfWiki:Fanon|Fanon]], and should be labeled as such, to make it clear that it's not part of the official Erfworld body. While there are no hard limits to what kind of Fanon you can make, be aware that the Terms of Use and [[ErfWiki:Guidelines for fan art|Fan Creation Guidelines]] grant full and unlimited use of your ideas to the creators of Erfworld, and that other fans are free to edit anything you post.

== Where to Start ==

Anywhere. Create or edit the article for your personal favorite thing about Erfworld, or just jump in any place you feel you have something to add. You may pull whole articles from the [http://scratchpad.wikia.com/wiki/Erfworld scratchpad wiki] on Wikia as starters, if you like.

Be sure to check what is [[Special:AllPages|already there]] and what is [[Special:WantedPages|needed]].
