The symbols under a username (the "rank") are preset by administrators. This year we added a "tournament" rank to help identify verified tournaments posting to Scioly.org.

I am not very familiar with code, but I can definitely help with editing the wiki and I´ll do my best.
I will surely try to help with everything. :) I am on the forums a lot these days so.

You might find the editing reference on our Wiki helpful! Copying tables/formats from other pages as a template for getting started can be helpful and is encouraged.

Today is half April.

yep! checked that out. I am currently editing the skeletal system.

For me, it did take me a while to get exalted (I believe it was 4 years since I really got involved in the community) so as people here have mentioned it is important to be patient. That being said, being involved in the wiki, forums, and community in general can definitely get you noticed and even if not for modship/exalted is always appreciated.

I agree with everything Lumo said. I didn't have to wait nearly as long as most (slightly more than a year), but I was also very active from day 1. Since getting that medal, I've been getting into editing the wiki with all the spare time on my hands.

Why are we going to run out of printer ink?

A few pages back, but...
Just print more squids. What's the big deal?

What if you run out of ink, too? I've heard that it takes more ink to print a squid than said squid will produce in its lifetime.

Those were my exact thoughts when I first saw that 80 next to my name on the first list.

Unlike the forums, an edit is an edit on the wiki. There are no such thing as "useful" edits or "nonuseful" edits. Thus, if you edit your own page (to update your placement table, for example), that gets counted as an edit, just as if you had made 1 edit to an event page.

That's why I updated the code to include a "% of Contributions to Own User Page" column. This shows how many of your edits were to your own page (not including subpages, such as "User:Pepperonipi/Sandbox", which are often used for useful wiki stuff). The higher this percentage is (relative to everyone else's percent), then a lot more of your edits would not have been typically counted as "useful". Someone with a very low percentage is likely just editing normal articles, without touching their user page at all, while someone with a very high percentage is generally only editing their user page.

Also, if you look at the last column (the top 5 pages you have made the most edit to), you'll probably see that your user page is included in there if you have a higher percentage.



You can see in the pic above, Benny's percentage is pretty high; 41% of all his edits were just to his own page, which is also his top most-edited article, as shown in the next column. Astroknight has a 0%, because they don't have a user page... and Bernard's is 10%, which is a pretty standard percentage.

There's nothing wrong with a lot of edits being done to your own userpage, it's just that's why you wonder why your so high on the leaderboard even when you haven't edited many main namespace articles.

Ahhhh thank you Pepperonipi! I'll work on lowering that percentage!
