Board Thread:News and Announcements/@comment-27150398-20180709093253

Hello all, as Wither has previously stated in his recent Staff updates and elections thread I am currently searching for users to aid the current “Wiki Coder”, Withersoul 235 in suggesting and implementing new features and backgrounds for the wiki. Whilst Wither does already do an excellent job at adding new features to the wiki and improving it’s overall design through it’s CSS and JavaScript Media Wiki pages he understandably want to retire someday and so I am holding elections for some “CSS/JS Advisors” or “Wither’s Knights” as he has dubbed them to help Wither with adding any CSS and/or JS codes to the wiki and to possibly take over his postion as “Wiki Coder” once he decides to retire.

To explain in more detail what exactly the requirements for said postion would be, any users considering putting themselves forward would be expected to be relatively mature and to have at least some knowledgeable of CSS and/or JS codes and be able to suggest potential CSS/JS addons for the wiki to Wither so he can add them to the relevant CSS/JS Media Wiki pages in order to implement them for the wiki. Said users would also be expected to find these potential addons from one of the following websites:


 * https://dev.wikia.com/wiki/FANDOM_Open_Source_Library


 * https://kocka.wikia.com/wiki/Special:JSPages


 * https://admintools.wikia.com/wiki/Special:JSPages


 * https://shining-armor.wikia.com/wiki/Special%3AJSPages


 * https://doork.wikia.com/wiki/Special%3AJSPages

Also, unless said users already have the Admin rights they will not be able to add said addons themselves and will have to ask Wither to add them as long he approves of them and said users are able to provide Wither with the relevant codes to implement said addons if he is not familiar with them. Lastly, if one of your addons is approved by Wither to be added to the wiki if said addon is quite major (ex. A new background for the wiki) then you will required to notify me that said addon is being added before it is actually implemented, however if said addons are quite small (ex. A new tabber icon) then there will be no need to notify that you are adding them.

So, if your a “normal” user, Moderator or Admin that feels that you would be suitable for this position or you know any other users on this wiki that you feel would be suitable for it, please reply to this thread with genuine arguments for why you or said other user would be suitable for said position. And as long as Wither dosen’t mind I will ask him to check through your contributions or the contributions of said other users to check if either they/you will be mature enough to take on said postion and if you pass his check you will then be promoted.

Valid applications for the postion will be accepted up until Monday 16th June.

Big out
