Yo-Yo Wiki:About
From YoYo Wiki
The Yo-Yo Wiki (sometimes abbreviated to YYW) is a wiki resource for the yo-yo world. The goal is to catalog all the world's information about yo-yoing. We want to carry the history of the yo-yo, the history of styles of yo-yoing, the history of specific yo-yos, as well as stories about events, people, and all things related to yo-yoing.Contents |
[edit] Anyone can edit
A wiki is a website that anyone can edit, and the Yo-Yo Wiki is no exception. Yo-yoers of all ages and abilities can join and contribute information or improve the information already on here. Learning to edit is easy and all the information you will need can be found at the YYW editing guide.
[edit] Leadership
The Yo-Yo Wiki was set up by Josh Parker and Derek Anderson in September 2005, and both act as administrators. Since then, Wilfred joined the administration team and the number of users has grown to 738,375 registered users.
[edit] Communication
Every article has its own 'talk page', where editors can ask questions and discuss issues related to the article. There is also a general discussion area on the Coffee Machine page. Users can also describe themselves on their user pages and can send each other message on the user talk pages.
[edit] Hosting
We've changed hosts several times, but we're now on Wikia. Wikia is a business that specialises in wikis, so your admins now only need to worry about content rather than server software.
[edit] Size and popularity
We have reached 1,105 articles on the YYW, but more statistics are available on the statistics page.
