How to get write access on the wiki?

nmrs2 · 2009-01-09, 17:31

Anyone know how to get write acess on the wiki? I'd like to fill out this page (http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=The_XBMC_Database) with column descriptions (i.e. episode.c08 is the IsWatched column, etc). I've been asking in #xbmc on freenode since yesterday, and can't get a response there...

(I started poking around the tables trying to fix the problem from this thread: http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43407)

Register an account on the wiki then ask for ninja status for that account

I got that far. I already registered an account (nmrs). Question is, how or where or to whom does one "ask for ninja status"?

I've been asking since yesterday in #xbmc on freenode and no one responds to me.

You now have ninja rights to the wiki for that account

Thanks. I edited this page:
http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=The_XBMC_Database

It's not complete, but captures as far as I got. I'll try and finish it up, but have a meeting now. Also, is there a style guide or anything? The style I chose, "wikitable sortable", which I found here (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Table) doesn't seem to be recognized)

See http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Help:Contents

FYI; XBMC's wiki is powered by MediaWiki

I'd go a little easy on the headers, each table does not need to be a heading (makes for an enormous TOC).
