[edit] Welcome to the Digimon Systems Update WikiProject
All you have to do to join is add your name, which you did :) Actually, there really isn't a join or not joined, the list of participants is more of a way for us to be able to find other users who are interested in working on the project. Anyone can work on the articles or the WikiProject even if their names are not listed on the page. But doing so you should take some things into consideration. Basically, being apart of a WikiProject means you'll uphold standards and guidelines that the group comes up with, as well as guidelines that our parent group comes up with, WikiProject Anime and manga. Also it's good to familiarize yourself with the basics of Wikipedia, such as those found in your welcome message found above this message. But don't be afraid of making mistakes or worry about following guidelines a whole lot. Wikipedia has a lot and it's a lot to take in. Just use common sense and make good faith efforts to follow the guidelines, no one is expected to know all of them, and sometimes they don't even apply, so you don't really know until you make an edit. If you are unsure about something you can always make a note on it's discussion page (the link for each article's discussion page is next to the edit this page link) for asking for help or even just asking for other people's suggestions and feedback.
So far on our WikiProject we don't have a lot of guidelines formally set out yet, but you'll find most of this kind of stuff being talked about on the talk page (remember to place for ~~~~ after your messages, this will automatically insert your name and the date of the message).
Remember to not violate copyrights, such as cutting and pasting from other Digimon websites isn't allowed. Instead, re-write the information so it becomes an original work. And remember that Wikipedia isn't a fan-site, the articles should contain information that is useful and interesting to those who have not seen the shows or played the card games. There's a lot of work to be done to clean up existing articles, so you might notice that most Digimon articles currently don't follow all the guidelines (as it is, most of the guidelines are being worked out still). But again, don't worry too much about it unless it's a major change (such as deleting a whole section or changing information on a large group of articles, and even then it's no big deal because we can always revert to an older version if anything gets messed up).
So, again, welcome to the WikiProject. Check out the links on the Project page for what we have so far, and definitely check out the talk page and get involved there as well with opinions and any ideas you have. And make sure you add the project page to your watch list so you can see when someone posts a new message or makes a new guideline. -- Ned Scott 03:21, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Digimon images
remember to add the {{Digimonimage}} tag to the summary of Digimon-related images you upload. Also, it's a good idea to keep screen shots at a smaller size, such as around 320x240 or 375x281. -- Ned Scott 04:27, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
Alright, thank you for all the advice. Kit 19:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] internal wikilinks in Digimon
Just to let you know, links like [[Tai]], [[Kari]], [[Mimi]], [[Joe]], etc don't link to the articles about their characters, but rather some other unrelated articles with those titles. [[Taichi Kamiya]] would be the correct one for Tai, and [[Kari Kamiya]] for Kari, etc. Or you can link to them like this [[Taichi Kamiya|Tai]], [[Kari Kamiya|Kari]] which would make the links appear like this: Tai, Kari. -- Ned Scott 03:14, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
What? Oh, I'm really sorry about that! I'm still new, so I'm not very skilled as of yet...

[edit] List of Digimon Adventure 02 episodes
Just to let you know, I got around to updating List of Digimon Adventure 02 episodes so that it follows the new episode layout format. and great work on the summaries for the Adventure episodes! -- Ned Scott 21:05, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks! I had no idea how to change the format... I really enjoyed writing the summaries, so I'm just glad that I did a good job :)
