Extended Absence
I've lost a bit of familiarity with Wikia's UI, so formatting issues may arrise.
Firstly, I would like to sincerely apologize for being gone. I'm not too sure if it made a huge impact, but it was irresponsible nonetheless. To be completely honest, I forgot about the wiki. I had trouble with both my PC and internet connection, so I was in the dark for quite a while. During this time, I got preoccupied with, work, my social life, other hobbies, etc., and by the time I had the issues with my PC fixed and the internet running steadily, I had lost the bookmark for the wiki and spent so much time preoccupied with life that I couldn't recall the wiki.
I would like to assure you that I am NOT leaving this wiki, and I will continue moderation. With m…
3 Days of Work/Sorry!
If you haven't already noticed, I've been inactive for about a week or so. The truth is, a few issues came up in my real life and I was unable to access the internet for a few days. We forgot to pay our internet bill, and we've been left in a bit of a predicament.
At the moment, I'm using a relative's internet, as we're visiting for 3 days. During this time, I'll need to do as much work here at the wiki as possible. This will likely include:
- New administrators
- Bans
- New stuff for the wiki
If you have any requests, please get them to me before Monday, 9:00 PM (PST/Kixeye time), as it could take anywhere from a single day to a week before I have permanent internet access.

BYM Wiki Christmas Logo
I know, I know; there are already two other submissions for the Christmas logo, but I couldn't help myself.
Thoughts?
Made a Decorations Navbox. Should we use it?
I recently finished a new Navbox for Decorations only (after all, it would be a pain to fit them in the Buildings Navbox). Should we go ahead and put it in the decoaration pages?
Here it is:
(Special thank you to Ikk200 for the original Buildings Navbox design that I based this on)
Opinions? Thoughts? Improvements?
Helping the wiki: How to Improve the Wiki and Keep it Healthy
I'm not going to lie, the wiki is pretty messy at this point. Pages are cluttered, full of bias, and contain a lot of information that simply isn't needed. This blog post isn't meant to target or offend anyone, and it's only made to help the wiki out. So, now that that's out of the way, let's begin.
- Go through pages to fix spelling and grammar! A big problem for the Backyard Monsters wiki is the grammatical errors. They make the wiki look unclean and unproffesional. If you ever have extra time, go through a few pages and try to fix them.
- Remove bias! The summary for this is pretty much the same as my previous one.
- Tips go in the article's tips page! There have been far too many occasions when people post opinionated tips in the building/monster'…
