Talk:Meet the Cappers
I got three questions regarding the Meet the Cappers section. 1)Are we going to fill in the blanks on some of the Cappers that we do know, but who, for whatever reason, haven't been in the Capping Community in forever? 2)In that same vein, how would the entries for Widget and Shandi be done? I think, as CB is doing with the Cappers eGroup, Cappers should enter their memories of those who've passed away. 3) How does one go about loading photos onto this thing? I'd like my photo of me in the tux on my page. It was either that picture, or the picture of me in my boxers, wearing a T-Shirt that said "Bullshit" on it, sitting in front of my computer, downloading porn.
I'm still new to this Wiki stuff and am still learning.
(0) Before we get carried away entering capper data, we may want to settle on a format a la the one cyber had over on the tiki and a way to connect em to their wiki account profiles - eg User:GeronK vs GersonK
(1) As long as the info is right, why not put it in? On the other hand, I'm not gonna lose any sleep if only a small percentage of names have data attached in the short term. Also, as the recent old time night shift gatherings at IS show, capper can return (and it's also a good reminder that there are many distinct sub cultures amongst the cappers).
(2) I'd say there should be a section for other cappers to comment on any given capper, a la [Dem's old Capper A-Z] (although Jazz said he'd update that page if anybody sent him updates. Dunno if they have). We can try to draw info from the various profiles they left behind, but sadly their pages will probably just be bare bones info + people's recollections.
(3) The upload link on the left. Then [[Image:file name|file decription]] And <nowiki>~~~~ leave a sig on comments. The Squiggly button will insert that for you.

Yeah, I'd say that if someone has some info on a Capper, go ahead and put it in. I mean, I don't know alot about BurkeDevlin -- but I know that if Dark Shadows was on, he was sure to be a face in CT capping it. A little blurb like that is a bit of info, at least. It's not a necessity to be sure, but if someone sees a name and has a thought about it along those lines, I think stuff like that can be added in.
