Wiki Helpers Wanted!


Hi everyone!
As you may have noticed from the title, we are looking for more Wiki Helpers! In case you didn't know, the PokéHeroes Wiki is closed for everyone (apart from the Wiki staff) to prevent users from making unnecessary SPAM.

By becoming a Wiki Helper, you will have full access to the Wiki. This will allow you to edit and make articles and also keep all information up to date for everyone.

How can I join?


Good question! To apply, you will need to write one or more articles on specific topics (which are listed below). It's important that you submit them to me (imagine) in a Private Message with the title "Wiki Helper Application".

This is the list of the articles which will need to be made for submission. You can pick any topic you want to write about.
Note: You can make a minimum of 1 article. Making more than 1 article will increase your chances of becoming a Wiki Helper.

Show hidden content
Note: You are not allowed to use information from pre-existing Wiki Articles in your submission.

• "Ultra Saddle" article - (Must include "Ultra Beasts" information).
• "Emera Beach" article - (Must include "Magikarp Patterns", "Los Seashellos", and "Leah the Mermaid" information).
• "Emera Square" article - (Must include "Professor Oak's Contest", "Bug Hatching Contest", and "Pokémon Beauty Contest" information).
• "Storage Boxes" article - (Must include "Bill's House" information).
• "PalPad" article - (Must include "Groupchat" information).
• "Game Center" article.
• "Berry Garden" article.
• "Tall Grass" article.





Requirements



When applying, or writing/submitting an article, you will need to look out for the following:

• Trainerlevel: Please make sure your Trainerlevel is 30 or higher before applying. Your Trainerlevel can be seen on your profile and on your user bar.

• Activity: It is extremely important that you are active on Pokéheroes (Having at least a total of 72 Game Time Hours) and will be active on the PokéHeroes Wiki.

• Language: Please write your articles in good English. Chat language, swearing and inappropriate language are not allowed in any articles.

• Grammar: Grammar is the key when writing an article. Your article will need to be clear and understandable to read. This includes correct spelling and punctuation.

• Information: Make sure what you're writing about is related to the topic you're meant to write about. If you're writing about the PalPad, don't write about the Storage Boxes. In other words, don't go completely off-topic.

• Helpful: Your article will need to be helpful and informative as possible for everyone. This means going into detail about certain features.

• Images: Images/Screenshots are important in articles, as they will guide users who are stuck with something. If possible, try including some screenshots in your articles. (If you don't know how to take screenshots, read the FAQ.)




FAQ



Q: Will I get a Wiki Helper banner if I'm accepted?
A: Yes, you will!

Q: How many helpers will you accept?

A: As already stated, you can make one or more, about topics stated in the spoiler box above. There is no limit to how many articles you're allowed to submit.

A: Check out this BBCode guide.

Q: Will we be able to use BBCode when making articles on the wiki?

A: In this thread. If you are accepted, you will receive a Private Message from me.

Q: Is there a time limit for this?

I would like to thank everyone for submitting a lot of wonderful articles and also for showing the interest in becoming apart of the Wiki team! There were so many great article submissions.

With this being said, we've gone through all the applications and have appointed two new Wiki Helpers, Danuwa & Ephenia, respectively!

Please don't be discouraged if you weren't accepted as a Wiki Helper! There will be more opportunities to apply in the future and we had to take into consideration a lot of other factors as well.

Once again, thank you all for applying and please welcome our new Wiki Helpers!
