Hey, it's your friendly admin, Bryn :) I've been asked a few times by various ppl, "You're doing so well with the Wiki - what could I possibly contribute?"

Let me start off by saying: A LOT. I'm doing as much as I possibly can, but if I want this Wiki finished before I'm ninety years old, I need help. That's where you come in.

Do you have any YH pictures, autographs, memorabilia, etc? Please consider adding scans/photos of them to the Wiki. If you don't know where to add your images, you can always email me.

Don't have any memorabilia but still want to help? Awesome. The following list is what I need the most help with right now:

1) Episode summaries. I left off somewhere around 1.13 Forgery, and so that's most of the middle and end of the season that still need episode summaries. You can look at earlier episodes to get a feel for how to write it.

2) Character lists and bios. For each episode that doesn't have a summary, odds are that the character list for the episode is incomplete and in the wrong order. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to correct the list of characters into the order in which the characters appeared, and then create the character page for the ones that don't have one yet, and write up brief character bios for those characters.

3) If you've got an ear for music, you can always take a crack at adding to the Background Music Breakdown.

4) Dialogue-only episode transcripts. For eps 1-28 were copied from Whoosh.org, and need to be verified for accuracy. Eps 29-50 don't even have a transcript, which would make you an AMAZING AWESOME person if you took the time to type one up. :)

5) If you're looking for something a little easier, you can always work on adding to Unanswered Questions, Fabulous Flippy Hair, Herc's Obsession With Zeus, etc...

There is some special coding you need to know to edit properly, but it's easy to learn. Knowledge of basic HTML is a plus, but you can learn all you need to know by going over to MediaWiki, or searching Google. Also, I recommend looking at the source code on other pages of things you want to do, and using that as a kind of template.

As always, if you have any questions you can always email me. :)
