Hey, guess who's come to drop by? if you need something to do on South Park Wiki, I could most certainly have some help with templates (I see you can design them, based on what I saw here) & maybe even a Monobook design (wiki's default skin is Monobook). I'm not very good at making either, but the former is more important. :/ You don't have to, but I would like help. I'll end here and leave the rest up to you. I definitely don't want to sound annoying.

And thanks for the wiki logo. It's now in the top-right corner of the wiki. And this is a nice wiki, by the way. I'm not a MacFarlane expert, but this should really help to promote ShoutWiki and give users a good Family Guy Wiki alternative (now with American Dad included). :)

Best of luck! Gazlene the Pork Girl (talk) 21:37, 26 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Hey, Gaz. You're welcome for the logo. I can help with the templates; however, I am not very good at making skin/layout designs... :P And it is okay I am not a South Park expert probably watched only a few full episodes. --Fred (talk) 00:28, 27 December 2014 (UTC)


 * That's okay. The templates more important to me (and come to think of it, the current Monobook skin design is okay). You don't really need knowledge too much knowledge on South Park for designing templates of it. Flash sites were designed by people who had limited information on the subject all of the time.


 * Also, I previously noticed that the wiki was called "Macfarlanepedia" and the wiki logo said "WikiMacFarlane". I like the latter title more and am glad that someone (probably Cook) changed it to the latter. I was about to address that issue. Gazlene the Pork Girl (talk) 10:23, 27 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, the wiki's founder just randomly called it that and we eventually decided on "WikiMacFarlane" and it was changed, thanks to Cook. :) --Fred (talk) 10:31, 27 December 2014 (UTC)

Developing Wikis are Hard
Hi Fred, I am having issues gaining the motivation of editing South Park Wiki, usually because I feel rushed every time I make an article. That, and I've been busy with other stuff. It also bothers me when articles have to start out basic, like with one/two sentences. While copy-pasting articles with permission seems ideal, MakeShift's still right about how copyright feels morally wrong (and I still feel that way even when redeveloping the wiki into a different style).

Do you have any advice on how to start off with new wikis like South Park Wiki? I hope this message didn't sound too unclear. Gazlene the Pork Girl (talk) 04:04, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
 * I understand, I can't tell you unfortunately as this is basically the first I've started a wiki. Sorry. --Fred (talk) 13:10, 18 January 2015 (UTC)
