User talk:Mr matthew

I'm fairly new to wiki editing in general, so feel free to offer any advice.

Been playing Minecraft for about a month and really love it. Thinking of producing some how-to videos for some lesser talked about points.

mobile version of the wiki
Hi Matthew! I was thinking about creating a mobile version of the wiki, maybe even as an iPhone WebApp to hold all the Information of the wiki in the palm of your hands :D Is there any copyright on any resource of the wiki or is it free to use? I do not want to charge any1 for it, wanna do it for practice and of course to use it myself since I'm new to minecraft :D

Yours, evolon


 * I have no idea about any copyrights of wikis. This is actually the first wiki I've ever really been active in. I would maybe contact Quatroking or Kizzycocoa instead. MrMatthew 20:09, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Guides
Why did you revert the edits on the tutorials? Monotonehell hadn't deleted anything really, he'd just combined three guides that basically said the same thing, into one comprehensive guide that covered all the bases. Just wondering :-) --DannyF1966 17:07, 18 November 2010 (CST)
 * Because by combining them, he removed their individual uniqueness. Guides are written by specific people and should reflect that users take on the subject. This Wiki is a guide, it has all the info, but it's strict facts. Guides are meant to be opinions and should not be culled down. There shouldn't be on "approved" guide to Minecraft.

 * Hi MrMatthew, I understand what you're saying there but this is where a wiki is different to a collection of guides. A wiki is a collaborative effort, placing an individual's name on an article is not in the spirit of a wiki. As it stands the moderators here are often moving or deleting guides that people are adding in the wrong places. If left we would have hundreds of "first night" guides, which is a silly situation. Tutorials/guides are actually discouraged on this wiki, but as a compromise the tutorial sub-article space was created. Merging articles with similar content is a common wiki practice. It's done in order for the readers to more easily be able to find what they are interested in. After some discussion with the mods (previous to your edit) I merged the articles in question and added the redirects. --Monotonehell 05:10, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
