Hello everyone! It's been quite a while since the last news update here! The Wajas Wiki team would like to assure you that we are still keeping up with wiki updates as best we can; we are a small team of volunteers who work on this in our free time, but we are still very passionate about making sure the Wiki is up-to-date and accurate. [https://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=127580 Jettalli 127580] and [https://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=41469 Averan 41469] are now Wiki Admins, so if there is anything you see that desperately needs attention, please send one of them a message on-site so they know to work on it! This Wiki is massive and Wajas is updated all the time, which means it's very possible that there are errors... so thank you in advance for helping us find them. :D
<h2>How to Join</h2>
 
  
1. First and foremost, please know that you do NOT need an account with us to view the wiki! An account is necessary only if you wish to personally upload images, make edits, and create pages. If you only want to read the pages and look at the images, you do not need to make an account for that and should feel no obligation to do so.
+
If you are interested in joining the Wiki editing team, head on over to the Wajas Wiki Guild linked in the left sidebar of every Wiki page and submit an application to join. (If you've been waiting on acceptance for a while, you can absolutely poke an active guild mod to take a look. We will work on catching up on applications soon!)
  
2. Your wajas.com account must be at least 3 months old to be accepted. This is both to prevent fraudulent account making and to ensure that you have been on wajas long enough to have a good foundational knowledge of how it works.
+
As for Wajas itself... are you all excited to celebrate Wajas' 20th anniversary this year? (20 whole years?!?!! Amazing!) There's already some fun stuff going on on-site like the Waja of the Month contest, so definitely make sure you check it out.  Additionally, there are a few amazing new resources built in on Wajas itself: the [https://www.wajas.com/wajadex/ Wajadex], the [https://www.wajas.com/preview_markings.php Markings Preview Page], and the [https://www.wajas.com/preview_wallpapers.php Wallpaper Preview Page]. Thank you to the wonderful Code for making it a lot easier to keep track of and look at items on the site.
  
3. Read our [[The Wajas Wiki:Terms of Service|Terms of Service]] to be sure you understand our policies and to get more information about applying successfully.  
+
Of course, we still intend to keep up with updating those things on here as well, but those features will hopefully tide you over as we work on this side of things! And, again, if something needs updates, PLEASE directly contact a Wiki admin or editor so we can fix it as soon as possible.

Thank you all so much for your support, help, and patience over the years. We are very lucky to have such a fantastic community that is going 20 years strong! We are here because of YOU, and we are very thankful. Here's to many more years of Wajas! ♥♥♥ ~[https://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=41469 Averan 41469]
:*Your username will be the username that you will use to log in. It doesn't necessarily need to match your wajas username as long as you follow the rest of the instructions.
 
:*The email address will be the address where your confirmation email will be sent, so it needs to be valid.
 
:*'''You must enter your wajas ID in the Wajas ID field! '''Usernames on wajas are not unique, so we need your ID number to be able to identify you. More on this below.
 
:*Under bio, just tell us a little something about yourself. This will become your user page if you are accepted, so put whatever you would want on that page here. You are encouraged to include your Wajas ID here as well. It doesn't need to be very long, but it does need to be at least 10 words.
 
  
5. Your application will not be accepted until we can verify your User ID.  As stated in our Terms of Service, you are required to send a private message (PM) to [http://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=51914 Kata (user 51914 ] on wajas.com) after applying informing her that you have submitted an application so that she knows there is an application and so that she can verify that the person applying matches the ID they provided.  We '''must''' be able to verify that the ID you applied with belongs to you before we can accept your request!
+

:*If we receive an application that does not include an ID and don't receive a corresponding PM claiming that application, we will be unable to contact you and will have to reject the request.

Hello hello everyone! I wanted to apologize for the lack of updates, I've been super busy lately and it's been very hard for me to make the updates and admin like I normally do! All that said, I wanted to toss out that the wiki is desperately in need of some self motivated editors with some free time to spare for editing! The wiki could really use some help with updating basic help articles while other users and myself are creating the new marking, mutation, and item pages! If interested please apply to the wajas wiki guild! Once accepted I can get your account created, and we have a to-do list there that lists a good portion of the articles that need updated. While it is volunteer work, from my own pockets I do from time to time reward top contributors with anything from items to CWP!

Back to wajas news, happy 15th birthday wajas! As seen in the current event section above, wajas [[15th Anniversary]] is currently running! A lot of the contests and other things are going to be wrapping up soon however as a lot of the festivities end at the end of the month, so be sure to get your entries/tickets/pick up late minute crates, etc while you still can!!!

As always, I want to thank the readers and contributors for their support! This wiki is completely user ran, and completely volunteer work. It would not be here today without everyone's support! ♥♥♥ ~[https://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=1231 Tailz 1231]

Hey guys!!! Just popping in with a quick update! So as you can see, I've played around with the skin on the site to make things a little more functional on both mobile and desktop! I'm still working on organization but for the most part I think I've completed most of the changes! I hope it makes it easier to read and navigate on all devices!!! If you see anything weird or buggy send me a PM on site and I'll see what I can do to fix it! Within the next month or two I will have a guild on site where from now on we'll be doing our recruitment, instead of requesting it through the actual wiki since the form sign up thing is weird. We are still backlogging old items, however all new markings and mutations from the last few months are finally available to be viewed!! I hope you are all well! See you next time! ~[https://www.wajas.com/profile.php?id=1231 Tailz 1231]
  
<h2>How to Help</h2>

===April 30, 2020===
You can browse around the pages on the wiki and find ways to improve them or create new pages by clicking red links or searching for page titles that haven't been made yet (Note: please only create a new page if it is a specific topic, you have substantial information on the subject, and an existing page covering that topic does not already exist). The "To Do List" to the right should also have a list of specific things to do.
