About Sydapedia
This is the ULTIMATE source of information regarding all things Lexian. Anything and everything that has to do with SydLexia.com can be found here. Keep in mind though that this is a user-created wiki, so 99% of the information is probably bullshit and/or personal opinions. The great libraries currently hold 594 articles.


News


Access to the Wiki
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 07:48, 7 August 2012 (PDT)   
Those who have accounts can edit the wiki, those who do not can request accounts through the forums, if you don't know who or where to ask, it is likely you shouldn't be mucking around in here.

You Tried And You Failed. The Lesson? DON'T TRY.
Reported By: Syd Lexia 6:52 PM, 28 December 2010 (CMT)   
If you can't write well, don't attempt to contribute to Sydapedia. No one wants to read a giant fucking wall of text comprised of your long, unfunny run-on sentences. Learn how to write a fluid, concise sentence. Oh, and there are these fucking things called PARAGRAPHS. Look into them.


Article Clean Up
Reported By: Drew Linky 10:52 PM, 20 December 2010 (CMT)   
Due to someone posting inaccurate, unhelpful, and just plain old stupid shit, Sydapedia article clean up commenced starting last week sometime. By now, we can only hope most of the wiki has been repaired. How big is this wiki, anyway? Eight pages? We should almost be done, at any rate. I'll edit this when it's finally done... if it ever is.

News!
Reported By: ToGdor 4:10, 03 October 2010 (EST)   
There's no news, but I'm tired of looking at the same news post that's been here for almost 2 years. Nothing is really happening right now.

Repel The Enemy Forces!
Reported By: SevereFlame 10:20, 19 February 2009 (EST)   
Four score and several years ago, our ancestors created Sydapedia. The land used to be peaceful, but recently some shithead decided to post pornographics of Chinese variety. This was the first time somebody had really decided to post crap that needs to be deleted. I had a dream that my fellow Wikiers who did not have the right to delete articles would help the Wiki by somehow informing the people who DO have those rights of the articles, so they can be carefully and swiftly deleted. Thanks to the efforts of me and UsaSatsui, we can. Please see the DELETE THIS SHIT! article for details. There will be only two rewards for helping the wiki: peace and unity. And so, my fellow Wikiers, ask not what Sydapedia could do for you, but what you could do for Sydapedia. Thank you.

Nagging.
Reported By: UsaSatsui 03:19, 31 December 2008 (PST)   
Honestly, I don't like doing this, but I really don't know anything about the show, and it's a damn shame that Syd has made a ton of articles about it, yet the best we can do is a link to Wikipedia. So someone who knows something please work on the Are You Afraid of the Dark? article? Please? I'll give you a cookie if you do.

SydLexia.com SNES Championship - 2008
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 16:35, 28 December 2008 (PST)   
The SydLexia.com SNES Championship - 2008 is under way and registrations are closed as of midnight tonight. The official standings can be found here on the Sydapedia. We will all see if Not Sure lays waste to the competition as he did in the SydLexia.com NES Championship - 2008. Good luck to all!

Added Locked Threads to History
Reported By: Docinsano 14:17, 20 October 2008 (PDT)   
I was looking through Sydapedia recently and came upon a green link: Locked Threads. So I went out of my way to sift through all of the General Discussion topics and found all of the locked threads. Adding new entries from the other boards is encouraged. You can check the page out Here. If you want to add more entries, visit the discussion page to find out the current completion of the archive. If you add something, please document it on the discussion page.

Crackdown Smackdown
Reported By: SydLexia 20:03, 12 July 2008 (PDT)   
Over the coming weeks, I will be cleaning up Sydapedia. The Sydapedia is meant to be a collection of site history, forum in-jokes, information on forum members, and various information on pop culture. Pages which I feel are not related to these subjects are going to be deleted with extreme prejudice and without further warning.

Categories
Reported By: Tyop 02:41, 4 July 2008 (PDT)   
The Complete Sydapedia category is now, with the exception of a couple of protected pages, gone. Don't add new articles to it. Use Special:Allpages to browse all articles of Sydapedia. You can find the now uncategorized articles at Special:Uncategorizedpages. Feel free to add those to new or already existing categories.

Most Wanted - June 2008
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 13:41, 29 June 2008 (PDT)   
Here are the 10 most wanted pages. You people linked to them and never made them. So its time to fill in the blanks. Green links need help!
  1. Aerosmith
  2. Metallica
  3. Led Zeppelin
  4. Gemstone III
  5. Scamrock
  6. Dork
  7. Boston
  8. Michael Jackson
  9. Marvin the Martian
  10. Viagra

SydLexia.com NES Challenge
Reported By: Char Aznable 12:16, 9 June 2008 (PDT)   
The Sydlexia.com NES Challenge is underway. Forumers will compete in a myriad range of events, all coordinated by Syd and Douche. Participants must sign up on the forums. Are you a bad enough dude to save President Ronnie?


Tyop to the rescue!
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 18:35, 18 May 2008 (PDT)   
While I sit here watching The Shawshank Redemption, and Andy crawling through 500 yards of shit smelling foulness, I saw that Tyop has been hard at work!

Way to be man! The main page has some new additions and is looking much better. Also the categories are looking much nicer.

Oh... there goes the Warden... and BOOOM! Warden Norton is dead.


Forum Trouble?
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 16:38, 24 March 2008 (PDT)   
The forums seem to be having a little bit of trouble. Hopefully someone will fix it? Maybe? Anyone?

Did someone change their DB password and forget to update their applications?

Maybe some php changes?

The news page is down too, and Wordpress is crying like a little bitch.

The SydStyle
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 09:34, 13 January 2008 (PST)   
I have been working on this Wiki's look and feel. Open source crafted projects like MediaWiki are made by a special breed of human being. They don't think like... well, most others. So to change the style of this page, I have had to try to think like an open source web programmer. Personally I think that someone hitting me in the face with a shovel would probably help at this point. None the less, I am making headway. If you want to make some comments about how it all looks, do me a favor and post here Talk:Sydapedia Style Discussion. For now I have run out of time, but I'll continue soon.

We really need these pages created...
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 07:32, 13 January 2008 (PST)   

Sign Your Discussion Posts
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 12:28, 2 January 2008 (PST)   
In order to make it easier to see who posts and when they post in discussion pages, please be sure to type ~~~~ at the end of your discussion posts.

ED-209 demands that you follow these instructions, you have 20 seconds to comply.
You now have 15 seconds to comply.
You have 10 seconds to comply.
You have 5 seconds to comply... four... three... two... one... I am now authorized to use physical force!

Pages that are linked to but don't exist
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 06:20, 27 December 2007 (PST)   
Below you will find a lot of red links. These are pages that are linked to by other pages, however no one has created them yet. If it is blue, then someone updated it, if it is red, then you should write something. I'll start by having NES point at Nintendo Entertainment System. Now, its your turn.

Pages that need work in the Sydapedia
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 10:24, 25 December 2007 (PST)   

New News Section on The Sydapedia
Reported By: Gishman P. Fontaine 10:07, 25 December 2007 (PST)   
This new news section should be easy to edit and work with. Members are encouraged to post news worthy items here. The instructions to post are inside the code for this page and are very simple. Just do me a favor, don't fuck with the code in the news section.
