Welcome to all users! This page is where you can ask StrategyWiki-related questions to the staff and senior community figures, and they will do their best to answer. If you want to raise a topic for discussion (rather than just ask about it), please use the community issues forum instead. New issues are entered here, with the most recent at the bottom of the page. If your question does not pertain to editing StrategyWiki (e.g. asking for hints or game-specific information), please ask on the guide's talk page or on the forums.

Please review the Table of Contents to see if your issue has already been raised; also check the archives (to the right) in case it was discussed some time ago.

To facilitate ease of browsing and replying, please:
 * 1) Place your question at the bottom of the list.

Joining SEIWA
The Square-Enix Inter-Wiki Alliance has been recently formed, and we're discussing the possibility of StrategyWiki joining them as a member (similar to our membership in NIWA). Do you guys think it would be a good idea? -- Prod (Talk) 20:00, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * No objections. -- 20:23, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed, I think it would be great!  Pro  cyon  21:48, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * How has NIWA changed things for us? Have we seen a pickup in traffic? Any cross-wiki editorship? Have our partners seen increased traffic? Have any guides on either our or our partners' sites been improved?
 * I've got no objections to joining another alliance, as it can't hurt. Just wondering what benefits we've seen from this sort of partnership. — najzere T 09:44, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * We've seen a few referrals from them, and I assume they've seen some referrals from us. Thought it's mostly been with our "partners" rather than the other NIWA members.  It's also put us in touch with a lot of other gaming wikis.  We would never have gotten in touch with the Metroid Wiki guys without it, and I have seen edits by some of their members here. -- Prod (Talk) 16:58, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Cool, I guess the thing to do is keep expanding the network. — najzere T 02:24, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Sounds like a sweet idea to me. -- Wario Talk 10:14, 23 February 2012 (UTC)
 * More friends = more fun ^_^ -- 07:15, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I think we should do this. --Workster 14:50, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It couldn't hurt for more exposure. I did want to note the handful of times I've seen NIWA mentioned in a blog we have been mentioned too. --Zaiqukaj 11:59, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Just out of curiousity, what credit of games does Square-Enix has because I never really heard it before? I like to join but I don't know what it's about. Don't get the wrong idea but I'm new to it. Johnnyauau2000 16:47, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It was a merge of and  to make . Together they have published a ton of good games. -- Prod (Talk) 23:11, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I like to help but I have no knowledge of say Final Fantasy and mainly others that came from Japan. I'll pass until I find a more familiar ground. Maybe next time. Sorry I asked. Johnnyauau2000 05:47, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
 * As the de facto leader of SEIWA, I would like to thank everyone for their feedback on this topic. Tacopill 00:34, 10 March 2012 (UTC).

Hello!!

that. If you or anyone else could help me with this i would be greatly apreciative

thank you for your time

sincerly--Drkelflord 19:48, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Inclusion of fan-site link on poorly populated guide
As per this discussion, I wanted to give other admins an opportunity to weigh in on the matter and provide their opinions. Thanks for your time.  Pro cyon  20:20, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
 * It's directly competitive to our site, so unless the linking is two-way like with our partners, my opinion is definitely not. The only external links we should provide are to resources outside our scope and they should go in an "External links" section at the bottom of the main guide page, not in the intro. Also, non-admin should feel free to opine as well. :D (P.S. should the title of this section not be "on poorly populated guide"?) — najzere T 02:44, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Duly noted, thanks Naj ;)  Pro  cyon  03:43, 23 March 2012 (UTC)
