Who We Are

OniGalore is a wiki (a freely editable website) run by the Oni fan community. The software used by OniGalore is MediaWiki (the software that Wikipedia runs on). For an overview of how wikis work, see the Wiki article on Wikipedia.

The editing of OniGalore is currently limited to registered users in order to prevent spam. If you request an account, you will need to wait for it to be approved before you can start editing.

How To Help

If you're interested in contributing to the wiki and haven't edited one before, then you should start by reading Help:Editing. Then check out the Current events page for suggestions on where your help will be most valuable.

Unlike on Wikipedia, we only have a few "do"s and "don't"s concerning style. Mistakes can always be fixed/undone, but try to experiment in your userspace or on a test page, and ask an experienced editor if you're not sure about something.

Cleaning up a messy area on the wiki typically requires good knowledge of the topic you're trying to document. If you don't feel competent, you can always try and nag someone knowledgeable into doing the job :-)

How To Customize OniGalore

You have a lot of control over the appearance of the wiki. You can start by looking through your preferences. Note the "Appearance" tab. Not only can you select an alternate skin here, but you'll notice red links for each skin called Custom CSS and Custom JavaScript. You can use those pages to create personal modifications to the appearance or behavior of that skin (these only work when you are logged in). Many examples can be found by looking at custom CSS/JS pages for OniGalore or Wikipedia users.
