Sharing ideas with new wetpaint wiki members/sites
We created a fan site for the Borgias over 2 years ago. For a long time we had less than 50 members. Then we started growing. We were at one time an official fan site for the series. Now we have almost 1,000 members and the cast of the series is so amazing that they come to chat with fans on the wiki several Sundays during the season. We have been nominated for wetpaint awards as well. We have contests where we give autographed photos from the cast members.
If you are starting a new wiki or have just joined a wiki have fun learning because it will grow. Don't give up.
We have members who have excellent ideas and help inspire each other. Creative members blend well with the ones who have other types of vision on any wiki
Check our wiki out at TheBorgias Wetpaint.com

Homepage problem.
I am currently having a problem with my homepage. See, I added a lot of tags to it to make it easier to find on Google and other search engines. On the bottom, it has a new thread that you can start open. Well, my problem is that the tags from the homepage extend the homepage so that there is a huge blank space there. I am trying to make my site look professionial, but a Wetpaint glitch will not help. i know this has been reported before, but I'm helping to remind you. You guys are doing great, just try to include this in your update. if you don't understand what I mean, look at my homepage and see the glitch:

This is NOT advertising. :)
Thanks,

Thread Control
We need a group/mass thread deletion tool.
As a site creator and administrator, I find it tedious to delete threads. ALL sites would benefit from an easier thread deletion tool that shows up only for Admin. Perhaps a simple check box, with a select all feature, similar to email control? We at least need this at each page level, if not for the entire site (if you are thinking there should be a fail safe to prevent unwanted deletion).
This has been suggested by so many people, I am surprised it is not yet a feature. Education sites are not the only ones that need this...

How many moderators should a wiki have?
We have a new wetpaint wiki The Borgias which is related in a way to The Tudors Wiki. The Tudors Wiki has over 4000 members. We are not as big as The Tudors wiki but it is very very possible that we will be wiith The Tudors ending. I do not want to make every single person a moderator. How many moderators are good per ratio of members so to speak?

Why not tick poxes?
I have 398 threads currently in my watch-list and I would like to remove about 390 of them and start a new; but I have to do it one at a time. The watch list helps me to find things and keep track of what is going on, but it has become a little bit more than cluttered. Why is it that messages can be ticked and deleted all at once, and not watch-list items?

videos not working
I am having some problems... I went to check up on the site this evening and my videos that are hosted on teachertube are not working. It seems you only accept video uploads from certain sites. This would be okay but the sites such as Youtube are blocked in schools. The only reason I use teachertube is for this reason.
I am well and truly stumped if students can’t see my videos.
Can you give me any help with this as my website looks a mess at present,

Chat Widget?
I noticed that you can chat using feeds on a website, but u gotta keep refreshing to view new posts, i don't like that, the chat widgets are perfect! however..... to use the meebo one you have to be signed into meebo and cannot chat with ur site mates using it unless your not on ur site, but ur on meebo, the other chat widget works the same way, is there a chat widget I can use that will not require being signed into a different site, one that is instant to use and does not require refreshing?

Inviting someone to a private wiki who already has a Wetpaint account
I run several wikis, some of them private and some of them nonprivate. I would like to give access to one of the private ones to a member of one of the nonprivate ones. Let's call the user in this case "Jane." Jane is a user on tmswiki.wetpaint.com and wants access to one of my private wikis. When I go to the private wiki, click on invite, input her email and finish sending the email, she reports that when she clicks on the link in the invite, it lists her as already logged in in her username (in the upper right hand corner of the screen), but DOESN'T allow her to join the private wiki. Of note is the fact that she may have given me a different email address for the private wiki than the one that she used for her account at the nonprivate wiki.
Since I will be having to do this again in the future, I'd like to know how to do this two different ways. First, if Jane wants to start a new account on the private wiki, my impression is that she can just log out of her old Wetpaint account before clicking on the link in the invitation. Then, through the magic of the invite, the wiki will allow her to make a completely different account. The second approach that I'd like to better understand (and the one that I think she is actually interested in) is to give her a way to sign up to the private wiki using THE SAME account that she is using on the nonprivate wiki. How do I do that?
Thanks for your help.
