| == So who created the wiki? ==
| |
|
| |
| Just wondered who created this wiki. Please tell me ASAP
| |
|
| |
| :Technically me, but there is a longer answer if you want. Two separate wikis were created. One was created on Wikia by [[User:Thai420]], and I separately created Grand Theft Wiki. A couple of years ago, GTW moved to Wikia, and the content from the old one was moved into this one. So technically I created this wiki, although Thai420 created a different GTA wiki before that (which no longer exists on its own).

| == How to become staff ==
| |
|
| |
| Why did you promote GuildKnight as high as you and how can I be a moderator? I was thinking that if GuildKnight started as an ordinary person and rose through the ranks maybe I can. I want to hear his story and here how I can be like him.
| |
|
| |
| :First of all, GuildKnight is female. If you aren't paying enough attention to know that, then you don't know the wiki well enough to be a senior staff member. And you didn't even sign your name after your talk page comment, which shows you don't know how wikis work. It's not looking good. All staff are normal wiki editors first and foremost - if you aren't the best at writing content, then you simply can't be allowed to moderate other people's content. And best doesn't mean most. The promotion procedure is shown at [[Project:Promotion]]. I promoted GK to be a Manager because she is sensible enough not to abuse her position - she rarely uses her manager position - but I know that if I needed her to do anything, she could.

| Sorry about that. Kinda new. I just don't see many girls play GTA. How come she got a speedy promotion? Just Wondering
| |
|
| |
|
| :Remember to sign your comments (using <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). Speedy promotions usually occur when we have fewer staff than we currently need; or when the wiki isn't active enough to bother going through the lengthy promotion discussion process (eg with an upcoming game release when we're about to get busy). She had experience on other wikis, and proved her editing abilities very quickly. After she became Administrator, I knew I could trust her enough to hold Management status without being headstrong and trying to change things just because she could. Although there are lots of people who would be able to do the job, probably very well, there's nobody else that I would trust to ''not'' use the position unless needed (if that makes sense).
