Welcome to the Scratch Wiki, Gdxfor!


The Scratch Wiki is a thriving community with 1,500 articles, 4,170 files, 347,328 edits, and 3,839 awesome users who have helped make the wiki great! It has existed since 6th December 2008 (about 17 years ago!) and has expanded a lot since then, with about 226 users joining per month. Have fun editing! Here's a list of tips to help you edit the wiki:

New Wikian Tips!


Cool tips on how to edit
  1. To edit, click the pencil icon at the top of the page next to your username. Then, click edit. If you don't see the button it may be because the page is protected for certain users.
  2. After you are in the editor, check out the cheatsheet for editing tips.
  3. You can also check out the help pages for more detailed information on editing.
  4. You can test editing features out in the community sandbox (it will get cleared every few hours), or you can make your own sandbox here.
  5. Before making a page, make sure it does not already exist. You can do this by using the search bar located at the top of the page.
  6. If the page you wanted to make is already created, you can create a redirect page! For more info on redirect pages, see this.
  7. To make a page, go here, or type the page name you want in the search bar and then press the link that says "create this page by editing this!"
  8. For information on magic words, check out the MediaWiki Documentatation.


Cool tips for using templates
  1. A list of templates can be found here
  2. To use a template, put it in curly brackets ({{}})
  3. To create a template for yourself, make a subpage of your userpage, like 'User:USERNAME/PAGENAME'.
  4. To use a template you have created, put the name in curly brackets, like {{User:USERNAME/PAGENAME}}
  5. To have a template's code come on a page when you save it, put 'SUBST:' before the template name, like {{SUBST:User:USERNAME/PAGENAME}}

Example of SUBST

Code Entered Result on preveiw Code result after saving
{{User:Vdiu/Signature}}

{{SUBST:User:Vdiu/Signature}}

Cool tips for finding pages to edit
  1. Use random page
  2. Check out articles to expand
  3. Check out article stubs
  4. Look at edits on recent changes and see what you can do to improve it even more.
  5. Look at S:CPND for discussions to take part in


Cool tips for posting on talk pages
  1. To post on someone's talk page, simply press the pencil icon and then press "New Topic". Type in the subject and message.
  2. Then, make sure you sign your post with 4 tildes (~~~~)
  3. When replying to a talk page post, edit the section that has the message and then indent your post with a colon (:). If someone already replied, use one more colon then they used. (See example conversation below)

Make edit summaries more interesting

All I see in recent changes is (fr interwiki) everywhere. Spice it up a little, with some variation like (french interwiki) or some interesting puns like (42nd french street) or even nonsense like (ikiwretni rf).

Ok... sure I can do that
Gdxfor (talk | contribs) 21:20, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
@Co0lcr34t10ns, Gdxfor Actually, it's better not to. Edit summaries ought to be related to the changes made, which means that if you corrected a typo, you should type (Fixed a typo). Remember the guideline S:PRO! :)

Remember to mention people if you want your post to be noticed

So uh... Remember to use {{@|<user>}} to let me know you've responded without having to spy the recent chages. Ty!

Sorry about that, I didn't ping you because I wanted to check to make sure that my info was accurate.
Gdxfor (talk | contribs) 14:39, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
@Jmdzti_0-0 And I've already failed to ping you when replying
Gdxfor (talk | contribs) 14:40, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘@Gdxfor Worry not :D! Although, you might want to check the user's userpage to see if they want to get pinged.

Compressed image notice

When uploading File:25Feb04_Graphic_Effects.png, the file size was kinda big, and could've been compressed if you used a compression page like TinyPNG or ShortPixel.
Don't worry, I've done it for you. But please remember to compress files before uploading them.
Thanks, @Gdxfor

Collaboration request

I am working on the How_to_Get_Ideas_for_Art page, and I was wondering if you were willing or able to collaborate on the page. I need some help with some of the sections.
Co0lcr34t10ns (talk | contribs) 23:50, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

@Co0lcr34t10ns Unfortunately if I'm going to help, it's going to be a while later because I'm leaving for a trip soon and need to prepare for it.

Oops, sorry for making that edit. I misread the text and accidentally made that edit. :/ Guess I'm gonna have to double check before I make edits now.

@A-MARIO-PLAYER No worries, I sometimes make stupid mistakes too.

Like right there where I forgot to add a colon... how ironic

New edit on Scratch Forums Show and Tell

Hello Gdxfor, Recently you changed the article for Show and Tell, and I know it was a very minor edit but I felt like it was repetitive to say "forum is a forum on the Scratch Forums". You also mentioned that it should be consistent across other articles, but I think it should be changed if the sentence sounds a bit strange.

But this is only an opinion so I wouldn't be asking for reverting or anything.

Thanks!

@Pizza0430 I do agree it sounds weird reading it out loud, but it’s what I thought was best accuracy wise; saying that it’s on “Scratch” was, in my opinion, a little too broad and not specific enough.
Gdxfor (talk | contribs) 21:48, 25 December 2024 (UTC)

wait so what do we do for situations like this

Maybe this is fine (though I think a lot of the value pages could just be on the reporter block page, but that might be a separate thing), but I feel like people would be looking for the block if they searched "answer"..
Medians (talk | contribs) 03:32, 26 December 2024 (UTC)

The community discussion didn't specifically mention what to do when there are conflicts like these, so I've just left them alone for now.
