Recently I just discovered what the Wiki feature was for. And upon searching, most seem to not know what its purpose is and therefore don't care about it. Never fear, I'm here. It's been approximately never since I wrote an informative makala so wewe are all in for quite the treat!
"It's a glorified article."
I've seen several maoni that Wikis are a "glorified article", insinuating that what wewe can and would put in a Wiki, wewe can and would put in an article. That is simply not true. See below for example.
Above is what wewe can do with an article. That is noticeably missing when wewe go to create a Wiki for a very simple reason. Wikis are strictly informational.
For arguments' sake, I have tried to put the information I would put in a Wiki in an actual makala to onyesha the difference. The result is below.
Okay Heather, wewe make an excellent point as always. But what DO I put in a Wiki?
Thank you. And as I've alisema before, make Wikis informational. Think of Wikipedia + Wikia (a fandom spinoff of Wikipedia which ultimately is what fanpop is going for here.) This would especially be easy (or difficult depending on your POV) for tv onyesha clubs. I have already made a total of 5 Wikis for 2 different tv shows, and I've only just begun. There is a wealth of knowledge out there to inform current and potential mashabiki of.
I can't tell wewe how many times I have found a club on here for a character, tv show, movie, au celebrity and wanted to learn zaidi about them only to have to open up another tab and Google it for zaidi information myself. Think of how much foot traffic that has Lost Fanpop, when it could all be easily accessed right here!
Here are some ideas of Wikis wewe could make for klabu wewe are in:
TV Shows - A page for each season, episode, and character
Movie - A page for each character, and spinoffs/sequels
Actor/Actress - A page for characters they have played, tv and sinema they appeared in
Musician - A page for each album
Awesome! What's to stop people from copy/pasting from Wikipedia/Wikia?
Nothing. But it doesn't mean you should. Not entirely anyway. I copy/pasted summaries for tv episodes for my Wikis but I also didn't take the easy way out and just c/p everything into a Wiki and call it a day. I went the route of Wikia and took screencaps to accompany my words. Take a look at the world's leading Wikia page link. Where I got my inspiration.
We at fanpop like images. I think anyway. There's nothing that says Wikis have to be a pile of informative words. Make it fun for the fan! Here are some viungo to Wikis I have already made so wewe can see first hand for yourself. I have only just begun tweaking with this and I can think of so much I could add just to one season page. One annoying thing about Wikis is that if wewe pakia an image, it uploads automatically to the club sans keywords/credit. Hopefully this gets fixed.

Thanks Heather! This was very helpful. I'm off to watch John Wick now.
You're welcome ;)
TL;DR version Make your Wikis informational, opinion pieces and lists don't belong there!

This doesn't apply to all of wewe and i respect everyones views, however i feel that some users just moan at any little change even if its good and some users saying they preferred fanpop beta. I know that there hasn't been much change but the users against change is the reason why.
Why do some users hate change? They think its against the 'spirit' of fanpop, they're scared that it will turn fanpop into myspace; Them reasons make me laugh. One, what the hell do wewe mean against the spirit! Fanpops not christmas. Two, how the hell could fanpop possible turn into myspace with all the awesome spots?
How can wewe not upendo the emotes? It makes it easier to see how the user are talking, it makes the maoni zaidi creative and there just fun. The speech bubble is good to, less boring then the maoni before.
I'm sure this makala will get a bad rating, but i just needed to say this.

Hold his inayopendelewa red chaos zumaridi, zamaradi
As he held himself from a cut on his arm
Some of Shadow own blood add dropped
Onto the red chaos zumaridi, zamaradi making it glow bright red
Out of a flash of like pink light
A female version of shadow who add different quills form
Shadow but she was midnight black hot pink
Markings on her quills arms and legs
Hot pink round her light pink eyes
Ice white ice blue inhibitor ring like zero the hedgehog
With the ASAKURA Royal family crest on it with matching hover shoes like zero
Shadow was in shock looking at the young hedgehog
She beautiful thought shadow as he blush pink
End of part 1 🌼
