MelonLand Wiki

Hiii, ooph Iv been having one of those weeks where everything is difficult and I don't want to do anything :ohdear: BUT I did scrape together a wiki based on Ice's suggestion!

Still not 100% on the design yet :tongue: Also its very empty! So I hope you guys will write some nice things on it to fill it out more! :tongue: Please create pages and add whatever you want; for now Forum Rules and Guidelines apply to the wiki too please!

Im thinking its main use is to act as a place for community guides and definitions of things; the kind of stuff thats not so well suited to a forum. Everyone is free to edit everything, however please be respective and try to add information that is widely agreed on by people here.

To start writing on it you just need to log in with your forum account, so no new account needed! Lemmy know if you have any feedback or issues!

Enjoy :4u: https://wiki.melonland.net

I don't know, I like the color scheme, it reminds me of cupcakes, and I found it easy and pleasant to navigate. :melon:

I kinda agree with Ice on the color palette. It isn't as 'out there' as other melon-esque sites, but at the very least the yellow background isn't that pleasing to look at for long periods of time, even if its fully readable...

Also, will talk pages be coming t:ha:are possible on this wiki? If you're not familiar, talk pages are common on most other wikis, and its where contributors can talk about the page's content and how it can be improved. If you want an example, here's a talk page on wikipedia, and here's a talk page on the wiki for Madoka Magica.

Speaking of wiki features: is it also possible to add templates to this wiki? As to what templates are, templates are snippets of code/text that can easily be repeated in articles via a template reference {{like this}}. Templates can also be made to have parameters for more diverse outcomes. The most notable template I can think of is the 'stub' template on wikipedia, which tells you that an article is a stub and needs expansion.

Personally, I think that the wiki looks really cute! I'd be very willing to add to it if or when I get the time. Thanks for making us something so cool on a week you're not feeling that well. Hope you feel better soon :4u:

Wow a tough audience! I appreciate the directness and feedback! :omg:

Looking at it in the fresh morning light, Im quite happy with the Rugrats design; the yellow is softer than a harsh white and its much easier to read than most other colours. I gotta fix it on moble though!

As for the nav buttons at the top! There is a logic to them, each line has a purpose (login, wiki management, page management, search). I did test putting them all on a single row and that did not work at all.. ssoooo I don't have a better idea right now (although we could snap the whole nav section to the right of the logo instead of under it, that would raise the main article as Ice suggested).. I think when we've all used it a bit more we'll have a better idea of how to improve it.

Ultimately there is no design that everyone will like, however I think adding a dark-mode toggle might help for some of you? (Would that help with the harshness Pepyogurt?)

Also, will talk pages be coming t:ha:are possible on this wiki?
Speaking of wiki features: is it also possible to add templates to this wiki?
If you wanna dig in more its running on DokuWiki I think both of those features should be possible, but they might require plugins! I will defo look into them, but at the same time I wanna keep it super simple to start with so it's not intimidating for people to use.


Hope you feel better soon :4u:

Thank you :4u: Im going to the countryside today for a week, I think I just need a change of air!

I think the wiki is a really open concept - firstly its for info related to MelonLand, so anything related to the forum, the minecraft server, mastodon server etc. But I think its also a place for things related to MelonLand people in general, for example its a place to put a tutorial about midi's or frameset etc - those are the kinds of tutorials that you cant really find on the web because no one makes sites the way we do. I also think its good to document people and events related to the web revival etc.

So just a totally random list of topic that are all wiki relevant
  • Tutorials or guides for unushual homepage making things
  • Guides for getting into game making or visual novel making
  • Asset collections that might be useful for homepage making
  • A link list of cool links that might inspire people
  • Lore of the MelonLand minecraft server?
  • A history of Neocities
  • Tips for using the forum, or setting up your site etc

Basically the wiki is like a big shared scrapbook/notebook that people and add too - I don't really have any particular rules about what it can and cant have, as long as it makes sense to people here!

Hopefuly that makes sense  :ozwomp:

Based on some of the conversations in the 2024 forum discussion thread, and with @Melooon 's permission, I've made a "proper posting guide" wiki page with a few of my own ideas on forum etiquette.

Please add your own points if you think there is anything missing (and, of course, if anyone thinks I'm wrong feel free to delete or change what I've written).

I shouted this out in the chat, but I wanted to say thanks again; and to encourage people to add their own posting tips!

I also wanted to announce that with @GlitchyZorua 's help we have added a bunch of new features to the Wiki including ~ A new visual editor option, video embeds, discussion pages, citations, redirect pages, alert banners and more! So its a great time to dive into the wiki if you like!

I also want to mention GZ's work adding documentation pages for MelonLand projects that are really good and better than anything I could do on there :ozwomp:
