Isn't that going too far? If vandalism continues to get very bad, then we should turn to that. But as a last measure. We've already safeguarded this wiki as much (if not more) than the forums. --[[User:LBMixPro|LBMixPro]][[User talk:LBMixPro|<sup>&lt;lol, talk page&gt;</sup>]] 03:28, 26 May 2006 (CDT)

:Yeah, I agree with you. I was just throwing out ideas. Accept or reject them as you may. I just think the wiki is a little bit of a higher vandal target than the forums, which are easier to lock down and one can tell who they are, but maybe not... -[[User:Mysekurity/sig|Mysekurity]] | [[User talk:Mysekurity|talk]] 06:42, 26 May 2006 (CDT)

We have articles for fads as well as articles for individual sites. I'm thinking we should have articles for songs and images; sometimes they are distinct from fads. For instance, "Crazy Cake" is notable not only for the [[LazyTown]] cake clip ({{ytmnd|lazytowncake}}) but also for [[cthulhu138]] and a lot of other LazyTown sites. On the other hand, if we do articles about [[asset]]s (which AFAICT is a new feature), then we're only tracking the use of that exact file, and not the countless spin-offs. Maybe we should have an infobox for "commonly used file" with links to the asset file of [http://ytmnd.com/assets/954ecbff381eb759f7be9849ea2a5776 The Price Is Right horns] and so on. -[[User:Phthoggos|Phthoggos]] 16:12, July 31, 2006 (CDT)

Some Wikis got a spam filter that prevent 'em from saving when they write something e.g. <nowiki>#redirect[[AlmightyLOL]]</nowiki>? That could be quite useful [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:%24wgSpamRegex] --<small>[[User:Smiddle|It's Smiddle, LOL]] | [[User talk:Smiddle/userpage|What is Talk Page?]]</small> 10:01, August 29, 2006 (CDT)

Fonts: The closest thing the fonts for the headers at YTMND's main site is Century Gothic 18pt, which is what I'm using for the page titles. The side nav headers are the same font, but in 12pt, which look retarded on screen. I've found a way to use CSS to capitalize them, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to uppercase the page title, maybe the subheaders, but not the page title header.

I like this idea of invite only. It'll keep down the bullshit in the wiki [of course], and just be a good source of info for people. Gmail uses invites, and look how that turned out for them. =P Razei 10:24, 2 June 2006 (CDT)

Cite.php

Do we really need references? I doubt they'd be used much, and it just seems like a hassle for Max to add. I thought about it, but I think we should only get what we actually need (yeah yeah, I know...) -Mysekurity | O RLY? 14:32, 27 May 2006 (CDT)

InterWiki links

articles for songs/assets

We have articles for fads as well as articles for individual sites. I'm thinking we should have articles for songs and images; sometimes they are distinct from fads. For instance, "Crazy Cake" is notable not only for the LazyTown cake clip (lazytowncake) but also for cthulhu138 and a lot of other LazyTown sites. On the other hand, if we do articles about assets (which AFAICT is a new feature), then we're only tracking the use of that exact file, and not the countless spin-offs. Maybe we should have an infobox for "commonly used file" with links to the asset file of The Price Is Right horns and so on. -Phthoggos 16:12, July 31, 2006 (CDT)
