From the Towns, Villages and Cities Wikia

[edit] About this Wikia

Town, Villages, and Cities is a place for people to share information about their communities. It is open to everyone - anyone can create an article.

This Wikia is international. It is open to people from all over the world who want to discuss and share ideas about their communities, and how they are unique.

If you find your city among those listed here, please feel free to add information that will make the articles about it better. If you don't see your city or town, feel free to start a new section about it. (If you are new to Wikia, please read the information for new editors below.)

[edit] Welcome words

Like other wikis in the Wikia family, anyone can edit these pages, and no one actually "owns" the wiki or its content.

By all means be bold in your edits, adding content and information that you believe others will want to know about.

But please also remember to collaborate with others, be friendly, discuss differences of opinion, and be mindful of the work others have done on this project before you got here. Remember that they are, like you, volunteers and fans, and they like what they've done here. Approach your edits in the spirit of improving the wiki, rather than "putting your stamp on it" and your presence here will be a blessing, not one that is resented.

Try to be accurate in your statements and leave links and/or other verifiable source information in articles you edit. Feel free to add your opinions and feelings where it's appropriate and where it's clearly labeled as such. (Unlike Wikipedia articles, Wikia has many opportunities to share your POV: point of view.)

[edit] For first-time editors

Please make Help:Contents the first place you visit. It will have you editing in no time!

Is this your first time here? Please consider feeling your way around, learning how to edit by hitting the "edit" tab, and not starting off your career as an editor by vandalizing pages (if you add things to pages to "test" how to edit, it's vandalism if you hit the 'save page' button.) Feel free to test your editing skills in the Sandbox.

There will be a great temptation to make a dozen edits in your first hour or two here. That's GREAT! But please make them quality edits that will make you a valued member of a team, not a "spoiler" who ruins what others have worked hard to create.

While it's not required before you start editing, registering and adopting a User name is a good idea. When people see your IP number - rather than a User name - they may assume you are here to vandalize pages, not contribute. If you are here to contribute, you'll want to establish a "good name" so let's see what that name is!
