First time here?
Welcome to The Cleveland Show Wiki! This is a comprehensive knowledge base written collaboratively by hundreds of Cleveland Show fans. With help from fans like you, we hope to become the most robust and comprehensive source of free Cleveland Show information available.
The Cleveland Show Wiki was started in 2008. A handful of people provided most of the original content, but efforts to promote the site have attracted other regular contributors and expanded the database.
Right, but what's a "wiki"?
A wiki is a website where any visitor--not just registered members or administrators--can edit the content of any page; you can even change the text of what you're looking at right now.
A wiki is a very practical medium for documenting large volumes of information. Creating a Family Guy encyclopedia would be too great a task for a single person to do in his free time. But with hundreds of editors updating a wiki 24/7, it can easily become a robust knowledgebase in a matter of months. See Wikipedia or the Homestar Runner Wiki for examples of highly successful wikis.
Editing 101
Don't be shy--be BOLD! Any little bit you can do is helpful; if you find an article that you think can be improved, just click the "edit" tab at the top of your screen and add your vision to the page. For first edits, we recommend experimenting in the Sandbox.
As a general rule, try to utilize the preview button when editing a page. When editing a wiki, previewing the page will give you a chance to double-check things like spelling, grammar, and page format before finalizing your edit. Don't break your back, though. If you make errors, other friendly users will edit the page later.
Also useful is the history tab, which allows you to view all past versions of any given page and, if desired, return the page to a former incarnation of itself. Please be respectful of this privilege, though, and use it only if absolutely necessary.
Now What?
Become a regular editor! It's easy. If you have it in your head, you can have it up on Cleveland Show Wiki as quickly as you can type it. Because wikis don't require the use of messy html or anything of the sort, editing pages is quick, easy, and fun. We know you have the knowledge, so why not share it?
