Blank articles
Hi, welcome to the Nerf Wiki and thank you for your recent contributions. We appreciate the images you've provided. However, in the future, please do not make articles that are essentially blank, even if an image is included. It makes it easier on other editors who could come in and fill in an article if as much information as you can provide is included on the page. In the future, blank articles are subject to being marked for deletion, or deleted by a staff member such as myself.

I don't know if this is how I message you? I can't seem to find a button anywhere to do that. In reference to that I'm trying to figure out how the heck to add those images as the pic to the left of the listing where it doesn't currently have one. I've got no issue generating information, but I have to figure out how to even use this website.....


 * Leaving messages here is fine, but responses on my talk page will notify me when you leave them there.


 * Ah, understood. If you upload an image, it'll put it on the article, ready to be posted. From there, you can put something in the edit summary at the top right asking someone to move it into the infobox for you, or you can click the infobox itself. An edit icon should show up, and then give you a submenu for the information listed. The file name for the image you've uploaded (Example.png, for instance) can be placed there, and it'll auto-display. Either will work fine, if the infobox is giving you problems.

Reference links: Wiki Guidelines * Wiki Code of Conduct * Manual of Style I think I sent you a message on your account, I have no idea if I did it right? Is there another way you can get in touch? I've got a decent amount of stuff to add, just am very confused by the actual process even after looking over the info you sent.
 * If you have any other questions about editing on the wiki, please feel free to ask me or another editor. Apologies if my previous message seemed a little short, it's late over here.

I ca't find where I left that response, nor if you responded to it there? This playform looks great, but is very confusing to navigate. Is there a way other than this website to reach you? I'm on discord, facebook, reddit, and can email or even text. I have info I've been gathering on a line 9 blasters that aren't documented here from the 1992-1994 range that I have a bunch of photos of those. Also have gathered information and images relating to a blaster made by kenner in the 1970s that I've been conversing with Buffdaddy of Blasterhub about, we believe it might be the very first foam dart blaster. patchmonkey212@gmail.com is my email, if you want to email me and we can maybe figure out a way to get this infomation on here in the right formatting. Not sure if I'm doing the signing thing right now? (Nerfmafia (talk) 18:30, April 19, 2020 (UTC))


 * Hmm, you aren't the only one who feels this way about this talk page. I've seen other wikis use forum-style user talk pages instead of this one, and they are much more intuitive. It's much easier to leave messages and you also don't need to go back and forth between users to have a conversation. Jet, is there any reason we use this style of talk pages? I don't mind its use on article talk pages but with user talk pages it's a little bit tedious.
 * Is it because switching to that format turns all the article talk pages into comments? I understand that you aren't a big fan of the comment system.
 * As for you, Nerfmania, if you have any information you would like to share on those blasters, feel free to make posts on our forums about them.
