Today, we've launched NESSAwiki, a Wiki devoted to Vanessa Carlton. Those of you who are unfamiliar with wikis might want to check out the Wikipedia article on them. Please let us know if you run into any problems with the site. Happy editing!

This a good idea! Thanks for putting it up.. but how do I 'create an account' I click the login button, but have no option to create from that.

Oops. There was a configuration error. It should work now

great, now I just have to remember to check it. :lol:

Will · « **Reply #7 on:** January 09, 2007, 07:00:09 pm »

You could start a bio. You could start articles on various albums, shows, and songs. Use your imagination.

Ghisy · « **Reply #8 on:** January 10, 2007, 12:36:51 pm »

I'd like to contribute but I'm not sure what to put there as of yet.
I need to read the help topic because it seems like there's a lot of code involved while making the pages.
Am I right Will?

Will · « **Reply #9 on:** January 10, 2007, 12:45:40 pm »

There is plenty of code you can use, but there are only two things you need to know.

Linking. To make a link to "Page", you type [[Page]]. If you want to link to "Page" with the linktext "boo", type [[Page|boo]]. External links are made by typing [http://example.com Link] where "Link" is the linktext.

Headings. You can make these by typing == Heading == for a second level heading and === Heading === for a third level heading, and so on and so forth.

Otherwise, just type ahead. Anyway... gotta get to class. Sorry for the rushed reply.

Are there any articles posted there at the moment?

I started articles about Be Not Nobody, Harmonium, and Heroes and Thieves, but now I think I may have messed up because you didn't post what we need to label things as. Like if it's song should we put "[song]" in it or if it's a album should we put "[album]" in it? That sort of thing.

Well, if there are two or more names that refer to different things, we should use labels. Like, Rinse (song) and Rinse (album). Harmonium is just an album, so we don't need a label for that.

Okay.
Then delete my article I started about Heroes and Thieves since it's both an album and a song.

well I tried adding a photo... which is quite a process I must say. But it looks like you don't allow that. s'on the be not nobody page. not sure whether wiki commons will delete the file or not... when i uploaded it I cited Fair Use Rationale:

-it is a low resolution copy of a CD album cover;
-it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the CD album in any way;
-copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD

hopefully they wont delete it as a duplicate of wiki en.. not sure i guess we'll see.
