It is pretty easy....once you understand the Wiki code.

If you need any help, feel free to U2U me, and I will provide whatever assistance I can.

Thank you very much
Be brutally honest, good article, needs work, don't quit my day job?

It is written well.

The only thing I would do is maybe write a brief introduction to the article, then explain it in length (maybe split it up into sections a bit). And, if possible, find some links on ATS (relating to the article's topic) to add to the article. It is always good to have links to ATS discussions in an article.

You can take a look at some of the other articles in the Aliens and UFOs category to see some of the article formatting that is done.

I couldn't find any ATS threads that were really relevant, just the odd mention within threads, with no details.
So I started a thread for it here.
The Allagash Incident
And I updated the Tinwiki page.
The Allagash Incident
Hope this is a little better.
I wanted to post a photo of the four men involved but I'm not sure about the restrictions, i.e. free use etc.

It is fine if it is public domain; if has a copyright, you need to get permission and give credit on the tinWiki image page.

Thanks for all your help, I added a couple images.
Hopefully sprucing it up will make my skills not seem so lame

Okay thanks! I think I used it before in a computer science class, now that I think about it.

Now I just need to find out how to get the "conspiracy master" emblem!

ttyl

Sorry to be offtopic but how do you get "conspiracy master" and "subject matter expert" just out of curiosity.

Also I am having a problem with a reference source for an article that I explained here.
Copyright or free use problem
Any ideas or suggestions?

Do you need to have 10 tinwiki articles that you started or does editing other articles count towards getting your tinwiki editor logo?

And not that I'm doing it for the points, but is there a way to keep track of the points that I'v gotten from tinwiki Vs. ATS?

I am having trouble starting a new article on tinwiki, Ive done some edits so far and looking forward to my first article. How do I start a blank page to begin my article?..Thanks

Well....

What do you want to create? Type it into the search function, hit go. If the page does not exist, it will say that and that you can create the article or request it. Click on "create" and it will bring up a blank edit screen with the title you entered in the search box.

Just remember to capitalize your title.....looks better that way.

If you need any help, just shoot me a U2U.
