Talk: Affiliation procedure

Revision as of 11:51, 6 February 2019

How to become an affiliate?

The process to become an affiliate to the Konami Classics group is very simple: If you own a wiki about any classic franchise from Konami, either we will try to reach you by leaving an invitation post on your message wall (or on any other active bureaucrat's/administrator's wall), or you can ask to become an affiliate yourself by leaving a message here.

You can also join the Konami Classics Discord server and ask any of us to help/guide you in the process.

What do I have to do once I become an affiliate?

Create a template with the title "Affiliates" on your wiki. Copy and paste this code on your Template:Affiliates.
- You are free to redesign this template according to the needs of your wiki. You can check the Castlevania Wiki's, Suikoden Wiki's or Silent Hill's main pages for examples and/or to get some ideas.
Download the following files and upload them on your wiki:

- Metal Gear Wiki - 01.png
- Rocket Knight Wiki - 01.png
- Silent Hill Wiki - 01.png
- Suikoden Wiki - 01.png

Paste the {{Affiliates}} template on your wiki's main page (preferably near the bottom or middle of the page).
Once you have completed the instruction above, please leave a request on the Affiliation Requests section of this page.
Add the Discord Widget to your wiki (for instructions on how to do this, please follow this link). This step is optional, however, as it could get in the way on the design of your wiki, although it's highly advisable to do it in order to have easier communication between each other, as well as providing users from your site an easy way to find the server and meet people that may have similar interests.
- If you already have the Discord Widget on your wiki linking to a dedicated server, then feel free to keep it. Many Konami franchises are still very popular to this day and they already have a well established fanbase. If the franchise you represent is relevant enough, then it makes sense that it has its own server.
  - Even if this is the case, please make sure to contact us in our server, as all administrators from all wikis are also offered/encouraged to join yet another server reserved for staff members only, where we can privately discuss any matters regarding to our wikis' development.
