Message from [NOOOPE]

Hello boys and girls. How ya doing? That's just great. Hey, do you know what troubles me? Spending all night laboring over some new artwork, only to post it online and get nothing but silence. What is with that, huh? Aggravating, ain't it? I know it's made me want to destroy the world on more than one occasion.

So I got to thinking, I bet there's some comment exchange wiki out there on elftown. Then I realized it's probably dead. Then I realized how long I'd have to wait for my laundry to finish, so I decided to make one of my own.

To Join:

Make a wiki called "Voila Their Name" (example Voila Aeolynn). On said wiki they place their newest artwork. In other words, there will be only one image on the wiki at a time. Everyone who joins this page must comment on everyone else's art. We will do this on the honor system, since some people might not have anything to say. If I see someone not commenting repetitively I will message you, and after a warning I will remove your page from this list.

Everyone should be watching everyone else's page. When they stick up a new picture, comment. End of story.

FAQ:

What if I'm gone from ET for a while and am unable to comment?
TELL ME! Me as in [Aeolynn]. Or, you know, comment on this wiki. I'll keep track of how many artworks you've missed while you're out and I'll just count them as being commented on.

Can anyone join?
YES. Well, you have to be an artist, otherwise it would be pointless. If you're not an artist and you just want to help comment... I love you. But you don't need to make a voila page if that's the case. Please feel free to comment though.

So if I don't comment enough, I'm booted off this page forever?
I will give you ONE chance to redeem yourself. Maybe this month is busy, but next month won't be. However, if you screw up for at most 2 months, you're out. You can still hang around, but you have to delete your voila page and people won't have to comment on you.

What type of comments should we give?
Anything from praise to constructive criticism. No being mean or I'll boot you. Since these works are potentially going to be finished or mostly finished, the stress isn't on criticism. Something like, "Wow! That's really cool!" is good enough, but only if you mean it. This wiki is meant to provide a reward for working hard on your art. It's not an art help wiki. Focus on giving praise unless you spy something off. If you see someone commenting "That's awesome!" try to come up with a comment that is not reiterating what the last person said!

What if I'm rarely updating art?
As long as you keep commenting the gaps between new submissions can be as long as need.

NOTE: Please, when you put up a new image, say "new image" or something in the comments so I can keep track of what comments relate to what image. Thaaaannk you!

If you really like someone's art, always remember to Nominate a Picture

2010-04-06 [NOOOPE]: OK! I changed the rules a bit. The number by your name is the number of artworks you haven't commented on. Check the Voila Stats page to see what you missed. Most likely, the pic you didn't comment on is still up and you have a chance. I will also wait a day after people have posted their pic to start pointing out who hasn't commented.

2010-04-06 [NOOOPE]: Also, just stuck this up there, but I'm putting it down here as well-

NOTE: Please, when you put up a new image, say "new image" or something in the comments so I can keep track of what comments relate to what image. Thaaaannk you!

2010-04-06 [Chel.]: Are you sure about doing all that? It just seems like a lot of work on your part, M...

2010-04-06 [NOOOPE]: I can't think of an easier way to do it that doesn't inconvenience other people.

2010-04-07 [Yncke]: Just a thought, but be careful what you're starting, [NOOOPE], the Voila! project is exponential in comments, so it'll end up being a lot of work. Besides, the information you want to manually gather can easily be found by going through the previous versions of the wiki and look at the dates of the comments. Perhaps you can write a manual on how to do that instead. ;)

2010-04-09 [NOOOPE]: I really doubt there'll be enough members for me to actually worry. Despite advertising this everywhere it really hasn't picked up at all... Ah well, even if there's just two people at least those two people have committed to commenting on the other....

2010-04-15 [Chimes]: *pops in* I will be joining when I don't have a load of deadlines to worry about :) (so, after May)

2010-04-15 [NOOOPE]: I'm pretty much flat lining until may too.

2010-04-16 [Daisy_Sandybanks]: Mine may be extended a little longer. Im in the process of getting things ready to pack up and move, so it may be a month or two before I am back here.

2010-04-18 [nehirwen]: Featured Wiki! <img:44166_1164145171.gif>

2010-04-18 [Akayume]: You missed the ' in "won't" under the commenting rules. (:

2010-04-19 [NOOOPE]: oh wow, when did your comment happen? I shall fix. I'm also gonna fix the damn tracking system, again. Make it all easy like.

2010-04-19 [Akayume]: I'm... Not sure? o.o Recently? o.o

2010-04-20 [Duke Devlin]: Definitely joining this in the Summer. :) Or maybe just after my exams. =3

2010-04-20 [hanhepi]: this is a fantastic idea. now all i need to do is start finishing artwork so i can join. XD

2010-04-20 [Chel.]: Awesome!

2010-04-26 [pegasus1000]: starts watching.

2010-04-26 [Pnelma Tirian]: haven't had time recently but definitely joining once finals are up. ^_^

2010-05-06 [Hendercrazy]: Hope you don't mind [NOOOPE]... I've added this wiki as a related item over at the Art Wikis of Elftown wiki! :)

2010-05-07 [NOOOPE]: Sweet! No, publicity is good.

2010-05-11 [Eyonic]: so, to join we just put up our voila page there under the other ones?
