Thanks! Here is what I have so far (I asked Grapejuice for some of her notes, and what the wiki has been up to so far.)


=============================================================

The sylestia wiki clearly needs updating and our reports show that that updating is going underway by a group of sylestians. So far we have seen the edition of an explanation of the coloring page (plus some examples of previous winners), an update on the winter festival, it's activities, and the themed sylesti of sylestia.

We managed to snag an exclusive interview with the leader of that group, none other than Rixva!


Reporter: What got you started/brought your attention to working on the wiki?

Rixva: I'm pretty sure there was a conversation about the wiki going on in region chat. The wiki itself was started by the user Rose when the site was still pretty new, but it kind of lost editors as time went on; some of the older users in chat were talking about reviving efforts to keep the wiki updated. I like doing things like digital formatting and organizing, so I volunteered to create a thread to serve as a sort of "base camp!"

Reporter: Any particular reason for starting the group of wiki workers?

Rixva: I just think it's important to have a place to be able to bounce ideas off each other if needed. For the most part, a lot of the work on the wiki can be pretty independent, and people can just chip in whenever they have time; in the event that someone needs help, or just wants a second opinion, the thread can be a resource for that.

Reporter: What in your opinion is the section that is in need of the most work right now and why?

Rixva: Hmm...I think that's kind of hard to say. I think in order to answer, we need more feedback from the community - what do people use the wiki for the most? What would they like to see incorporated? From our perspectives as seasoned Sylestians, it can seem pretty complete. We don't see the holes in our information that new users or less active members do. So to answer your question, the part that needs the most work is our outreach strategy - getting more people to use the wiki and offer their feedback!

Reporter: Do you have anything to say to our readers if so what is it?

Rixva: Sure - go take a look at the wiki and let us know what you think! What is most helpful to you, and what can we improve? The more feedback we get, the better we can cater the wiki to our users' needs!

Thank you Rixva for that insightful look into the thought behind the wiki and it's workings. Speaking of which the wiki workers are wondering what they should work on next! They need your help to decide. So we set up a lovely poll for you dear readers.

What should the wiki team work on next?

1. Focus on the basics of sylestia (Team building, breeding etc.)
2. Focus on the sylesti portion of the wiki (info pages, themed pet list etc.)
3. Focus on the festivals and their activites
4. Focus on the avatar items (origins, fests they come from etc.)

Which do you think is most important and the one they should work on? Cast your votes by pming Grapejuice with your vote (the number you want) Remember one vote per user. Hurry and get your votes in as the deadline is March 14th!


On that note we end this months wiki news, February has brought the wiki team much more to consider and add to the ever growing wiki and it was full of surprises. Until next issue. Cyo!

(side note, the due date for the votes is march 14th because it's 2 weeks after the issue is released and I'm assuming the issue is being released Feb 28th. if it is released later could you change the date to reflect that.)


Here is the finished article Shayni!

Hello there tulip (Apologies I must call you tulip because there is @Dragongem23)! Welcome!
Thanks for joining! I'll put you on the illustrators list.
Right now I am doing the newbie column, but do you think you could get an article about battling done in say...three days? xD
Or maybe would it be possible for you to do a random newbie spotlight and interview a newbie of your choice?

Hm, I actually planned for them to have their entire interview on their subject, that was my intention. :P
If you (and/or the readers) strongly dislike this though, I can reconsider whether or not we can change it.

Alright, that's fine with me. It just doesn't seem that entertaining unless someone really needs it for a research paper, which I doubt.

Hey there fox ^^ Hope your schedule is working out alright
Do you think you can finish the design articles in three days, or would you like me/other members to help compose your interviews into an article?

What you want to do for the Times:
I'd like to apply to write a section on members of Sylestia. I'll look around, find random (active) players, and (with their consent) do short highlights on them. It would be a great way for people to get their name out there, advertise the activities or projects they manage, explain a bit about themselves, and share game strategies. (People could also request that I do a highlight on them)

Any extras:

I'm on Sylestia multiple times per day, so I'm almost always available if I need to be contacted. I've been playing Sylestia for over a year (1 year, six months, three weeks, and three days to be exact), so I know my way around the site. I love writing, and I think I could contribute a lot to the Sylestia Times.
