You know those box things you usually find below Wikipedia's pages.......?
Scotty:
I wasn't scolding anyone.
Clear Blue:
I didn't take that as "shouting" either, I took it as a compliment.
RoninatorMarx:
That's besides the point, though. Nobody was offered anything for doing Wiki work (except to shorten the required posts in the forum to access the now-forgotten +18 section) nor did anyone asked for one. Back then, and still now, people wanted to work the Wiki simply to help out. Many different people have already done this, and none of them (or at least I never heard) came in and asked for praise. Heck, some of the Wiki contibutors either don't go to the forums often, or not at all.
And before you throw what I just said back at me, I only bothered posting about this because I think having them is a big break for our own Wiki. plus, I like to update people and hopefully, they'd do Wiki work too.

Yeah, I guess I am.
Now that I do look back, I probably exaggerated and I only thought about the box template for one year. My bad. XD

*Wants to edit the Jupiter section but can't find the "edit" button, after finding out you need an account to edit*
WHAT?! So I have to get 2 accounts to get on iM@S Forums and iM@S Wiki respectively? (Why can't we just link them both together?)
After one year, you finally decided to make a box template for iM@S. Wait...Does that mean...you can edit the info on Wikipedia?!

SMF didn't come with a built-in wiki function, nor was the old forum, and vice-versa. But if it did, we would've lost a lot of existing info and lead us in probably finding a new Wiki site when the old forum died.

Anyone can! Forgot about their slogan?: "The free encyclopedia that anyone can edit." XD
To be precise, I just read their documents on how to edit, and experimented on a few things to make the final results as is.
