| Q. | Several Questions about Wiki-Editing? | Related Search: Wikipedia | | | All questions are about a Wikia site, not Wikipedia.
1: I had to move an article to a new location, and turn the old article into a Disambiguation page. The old article is used in a Template and appears on almost every single page. The template links are updated, but the "Links Here" section still lists everything on the Disambiguation page.
2: Some Wikias have Badges that you earn. For instance if you visit the Wikia called "Death Spank" it gives you a badge saying "Welcome to the Wiki".
3: I have sysop permission; is it possible for me to update the file myself from question 1, or do I need to ask the administrator? Also how and can I create badges from question 2?
| | A. | Wikia, Inc. is a private, commercial enterprise. Why would you come to a volunteer website and enter your question in the "Wikipedia" category, when Wikia.com has a staff of at least 30 people who are PAID TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS AS A CUSTOMER?
Seriously, the nerve of some people. | | | |

| Q. | Compilation "CM"- GEN. INFO. Resource Page, for "NEWBIES": all Regular PATRONS, please HELP? | Related Search: Classical | | | As many if not most regular patrons of this CM forum do, I love this genre; it's been and continues to be a main-stay of my life: an abiding interest, and a resource for spiritual rejuvenation and succor, which never fails me. And I want to propitiate, promote its appreciation in any way that I can.
The perpetual in and out flow of "Newbies" to this forum, presents such an opportunity. To take advantage of this, I'm compiling a CM.-GEN. INFO, Resource Page for their utilization; and am here requesting any of you Regular Patrons for aid/assistance/input in its design, and resource recommendations(it's meant to be easily accessible for posting as a response to any relevant inquiry). The following is the basic outline I've come up with so far:
(1) "where can I get FREE sheet music for (whatever type of instrument, say, "piano"(or orchestral score)?": LINK (repeat - FREE)???????
(2) "where can I find info. about--------------Mozart; Beethoven; Bach; etc., etc.; or any general information about CM?": I always provide this LINK: [Link] >)
(3) "where can I listen to classical music for FREE?" I always reference You Tube: [Link]
(4) "where can I download mp3?" LINK ???????
There are often other requests, for which I'm going to rely upon you who are much more knowledgeable than I to recommend.
This project is only in genesis form, obviously; so please, PLEASE, feel free to recommend any and all alterations/additions, you might consider to more helpful than the resources I've listed.
And if any of you should wish to resume responsibility for it, such a Project, again, PLEASE, feel free to inform me; I will be most happy to turn it over to you and/or assist you in anyway that I can.
Thank you,
Alberich
