Blocked?
We get a lot of traffic from spambots which create accounts then put strange ads on their user pages. We block the addresses that the spambots use. If you are unable to create an account or edit because of an ip block email fredbaud at fairpoint.net with details, copy the message you are receiving from us with the ip address. Use the title, "Blocked on Communpedia" so I have a chance to notice it. User:Fred Bauder Talk 14:52, 24 May 2013 (GMT)

New to wikis?

 * A list of most help pages can be found on Help:Contents and in Category:Help.

How to help out

 * If you want to help but you're not sure where to start, try improving the various stub articles by adding content.
 * Another helpful activity would be to check the list of requested articles, or wanted pages for frequently linked-to articles that don't exist yet.
 * To follow the changes to this wiki, and to look out for new users and edits use recent changes.
 * You can find a list of useful templates on Category:Templates, some of which are documented on Communpedia:Templates.
 * If you need help editing, you could start with Help:Editing.

Want to discuss stuff?

 * If you want to discuss anything specific to an article, you can use the talk page for that article.
 * For more general discussions, such as discussions on policy, the wiki's logo, etc. you can use the People's Congress.
 * For problems and issues regarding coding please use the Workshop.

Things to do

 * Useful activities
 * Add citations for verification to articles lacking sources and articles with unsourced statements.
 * Add some original content and remove bias from articles brought from Wikipedia, from Anarchopedia, and others.
 * Add pictures to articles that need them. Visit Special:Upload. Add the images to a category too, like [[:Category:Images ]].
 * Help expand some article stubs and short articles.


 * Locate and mark pages that need expanding as article stubs.
 * Create links to some orphaned pages.
 * Write a new article that's on the wanted list!
 * Fix any double redirects by redirecting the first page to the third page.
 * Check for broken redirects and either mark them for deletion or find a more appropriate target.
 * Consider splitting up very long pages into different pages or subpages.
 * Create some links on dead end pages.

History of this encyclopedia
This (wwtrade.org/w/index.php? ... Communpedia....) is the latest version of a website that began as "Communpedia" on the wiki farm wikia.com, around 2011 or 2012, then moved to its own server at communpedia.org, then moved back to wikia temportarily (in 2015 and early 2016), and is now here. In the capable hands of User:Fred Bauder, I hope this will be a stable location. Please note that some information added to the wikia site in the last few months has not been transferred here yet. Hopefully we'll get around to it. Or you could help us with that, too! -- Tribal (talk) 11:03, 11 July 2016 (CDT)
