Episodic Metagames

Wikipedia:Guide to layout contains most of the stuff relevant to wikification, including links: [[ Link ]]. Generally, articles start with a short introduction, with the first sentence being: Episodic Metagames are ... (rest of sentence).

As for cleaning up, this refers to the overall text of the article. Articles should follow a general format, with an introduction, the rest of the article, a References, See also, and External links section. Also, articles are placed in appopriate categories like [[Category:Games]]. Also, articles don't generally state names of authors within the article itself. Also, opinionated (POV) comments generally don't go into articles, and should be written to fit an encyclopediac tone. Also, CAPITALIZING WORDS GENERALLY IS LOOKED UPON AS AN EQUIVALENT TO YELLING ONLINE... In other words, the article has to be written slightly better. You can view an already written article for examples for help, like Computer and video games.

As for the redirect, created it at EPMG. Thanks for your contributions! AndyZ 01:42, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Illusions-in-studio-wiki.jpg

File Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading File:Illusions-in-studio-wiki.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the GFDL or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. MBisanz ^talk 22:15, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
