Welcome to the Dinosaurs Eat Everybody wiki
The goal of this wiki is to create a collection of ridiculous articles. This should be a resouce that documents all things pertaining to my friends my world. I want everybody I know to come write articles about things like...
- inside jokes
- phrases and quotes
- our bands
- people
- anything that you think might be funny to write about
Click "All articles" on the left to see a list of all the articles we have here.
Hit the 'Random page' link on the left to see some the articles that have been written and start writing your own. You can also search for articles and if the one you're looking for doesn't exist, create it.
While I built this mainly for friends to play with, anybody is welcome to contribute to this site. Enjoy!

Creating Pages
The easiest ways to create new pages would be one of the following 2..
Using Wikilinks
MediaWiki makes it very easy to link wiki pages using a standard syntax. If you (or anyone else) creates a link to an article that doesn't exist yet, the link will be coloured red, like this.
Clicking a red link, will take you to the edit page for the new article. Simply type your text, click save and the new page will be created.
Once the page has been created, the link will change from red to blue (purple for pages you've visited) indicating that the article now exists.
Using the URL
You can use the wiki's URL for creating a new page. Just type in a URL like this...
http://wiki.dinosaurseateverybody.com/index.php?title=ARTICLE
If you replace ARTICLE with the name of the page you wish to create, you will be taken to a blank page which indicates that no article of that name exists yet. Clicking the "edit" page tab at the top of the page will take you to the edit page for that article, where you can create the new page by typing your text, and clicking submit.
Here is a guide to styling a wiki page. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing
Moderation
I will do some moderation on this, but for the most part, things will be pretty open.
I'm going to have this set to disallow anonymous editing, just because I want to see who is adding/changing what.
