	Thank you for the compliments! I plan on this being family-friendly, as it will be a gift for my family come Christmas. Because of that I don't have any intention on opening it to the public yet. Maybe sometime after Christmas. As I am fairly new, could you please inform me on how I would add it to an index? --[[User:Medievalriot\|Medievalriot]] 05:14, 10 August 2017 (UTC)		Thank you for the compliments!

		+	Well, you should leave me a message on my user discussion page. Fortunately, I checked your user discussion page, because when you leave a message on your page, I do not have the "You have a new message" note. Just click the name in my signature, then select the discussion tab and write your question, comment, etc, there. Sorry, for the "how to", I will just copy and paste what I wrote for someone else:
		+
		+	Actually, you should be able to see this in the [[Tutorial]]. So, you just find the appropriate index. You know, when you go to the main page, then go to all the family friendly stories, or mature, or adult. Go to there. If it is adult stories, there is the alphabetical list. If your story is "Dog's Story", just go to D (Family Friendly will not have the alphabet subpages), then hit edit at the page. Just copy the table style that you see from the other stories. Please make sure it is listed alphabetically. I fixed many, and get frustrated when others don't follow the standard. It isn't really a rule, just annoys me. If your story begins with a non-useful word, like A, An, The, then alphabetize by the first important word. Like, "A Dog's Story" would go under "Dog's Story, A", so D first, then where the rest fits, not under A. Seen too many people try to put their story at the very top by doing things like that, and it is stupid and petty. Like the ++Infinity. So, because you put a + in front of it, it should be in front of every other story? Maybe there should be a different way to make them, but it seems too judgemental. Why not just name your story "AAA"? Then you can be at the top, even though no one will understand what your title means...
		+
		+	Formatting looks like this:
		+
		+	<nowiki>\|-</nowiki>
		+
		+	<nowiki>\|[[Story name]] \|\| Page count \|\| Notes like if it is public, private, etc</nowiki>
		+
		+	I made templates for the common notes, like private, public, do not edit. Just use these templates:
		+
		+	<nowiki>{{DNE}}</nowiki> = Do Not Edit. So if you prefer people to not even fix the grammar. Please note, if you are missing the stuff to comply with the rules, it will still be edited (Like if you are missing your category)
		+
		+	<nowiki>{{Private}}</nowiki> = This is your own private story. Others can read, and fix mistakes if needed, but should not be writing their own stuff.
		+
		+	<nowiki>{{Public}}</nowiki> = Anyone can edit, add, make their own paths, etc.
		+
		+	In the notes, you can also add more after declaring the sharing. Like "If you want to edit, please follow the guide" or "This story includes YOLO, LOL, and some poisoning". The notes can be whatever you want people to know before they click, but please keep them reasonable. Like, a few words, not a paragraph.
		+
		+	Just remember to add the category to every page you create, even notes pages. If you add a status bar, make sure you add it to all the pages. Again, you can see how to add status bars if you are interested in the [[Tutorial]].
		+
		+	Personally, I recommend making everything following the first page tiered, which means adding it to a sub tree. For example, I have [[Dirty Me]]. Every page after is <nowiki>[[Dirty Me/Next page]]</nowiki> Then, if I have the option "Scream", which is likely to already have something there, it will be under <nowiki>[[Dirty Me/Scream]]</nowiki>, and I doubt anyone has that page (These are called blue links, when you make a link that leads to a page someone already created). It will also put a little selection at the top that will let you go directly back to the page lower in the wiki tree, so the Dirty Me/Scream page will have a link back to Dirty Me. This makes it nice if you want to let the user go back to a sub tree, but stops at a certain point. For example, if I did a page "Dirty Me/Something/Something else/Something new/Something old/Something borrowed/Something Blue", after a while, I can't go back to every sub page. I think it goes three deep, so in this example, I could go back to Dirty Me, Something, and Something Else. The rest just will not show up.
		+
		+	I had more notes in the post to the other person, like how to handle HTML, so let me know if for some reason you want to know how to handle HTML, since it works different here than other webpages. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime\|Dirty Me]] 06:32, 11 August 2017 (UTC)

	Interesting story. Different than most on here. So far I like it. It is sort of light hearted, a quick but fun read, at least what you have written so far. But, I notice the story isn't listed on any index. Users will not be able to find it. Is it Mature, Adult, Family friendly, or PG? You may want to put it in the index. --[[User:DirtyMeStoryTime\|Dirty Me]] 04:18, 10 August 2017 (UTC)		Interesting story. Different than most on here. So far I like it.
