As long as you don't post hentai or other rated R images, you should be okay.

Though I do not want to have to make it an official policy, I'm dead set against it. I'm sorry, I do not believe it has any place on a wikia where we take from real world imagines and depictions. I'm not particularly a fan of anime but I do not hate it, I just do not want to see it used on the wikia.

Thank you,
Farsun.

Why is Beluzia painted on this "diplomacy" map on the wiki?
I want to know what the colours mean...

Beluzia is a neutral nation.

It's a poorly named ("diplomacy", rather than "Davostag diplomacy") map, but it's innocent enough. It was uploaded by Federalist11 and links to here where the colors are explained in the caption: "Blue: Allies Red: Enemies".
Just a bunch of shit.

Thanks for clearing it up, but Beluzia isn't 1 country so it can't really be a friend or enemy to anyone. The federal government is neutral by legislation. Individual regions have their own foreign policies (players set the policies if they win the regions in an election) so Davostan should specify which Beluz counties it has ties with.

I know our system looks all weird, but our pending name change will fix things.

I'd like to point out, that when writing on the wiki...you are to write in a neutral fashion. You are writing mainly in past or present tense, so please have article reflect this. Also, you are likely writing an article as an outside observer, as many wiki articles are done.

Hi,

I just wonder if I could change the template for Egelion. The old one is outdated and talks about people who are "dead", so I'm just going to trim it down. The new template would just be a scaled down version which covers

  • History
  • Political Parties (current)
  • Geopolitics

I'll possibly add something else, will look at other countries' templates and see what they talk about first.

I also wonder if we have our personal sandboxes on the wiki? Would help... ;)

No personal sandboxes, create your own wiki for that. Also, article titles of parties, nations and the like must be in English. For instance if your party was named the Conservative Party and you played in Dorvik you'd name the article: Conservative Party (Dorvik) instead of Konservative Partei.

I want to make a Particracy wiki version of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Bar_box for my election pages. I tried but my newbishness got in the way, so now I need somebody who actually knows what they're doing. I've already made the pages for the bar box template and the necessary (I am led to believe) bar percent template (which are now blank as I deleted my unsuccessful attempts), so you can work on them instead of starting a new page.

Alright, I've figured how to import stuff from Wikipedia, but I'm blocked from actually importing because I'm not an admin. Farsun is now inactive, so I can't go to him for help. Any suggestions?
