Riordan Wiki:Blog Request

This is where users request permission to make blogs.

Procedure
You can use this page to request a blog as long as it follows the policy below. You will give the name of your blog as a heading at the bottom of the page including a description of what your blog will be about. The blogs that have been approved by administrators will be allowed to be created.

Requirements
's blog policy, like the talk page and user page policies, is designed to keep the focus on editing articles. To maintain this focus there are a few policies regarding blogs. Please make sure your blog fits these policies before requesting it's creation. Blog posts failing the above rules will be deleted and the user warned and/or blocked at the administrator's discretion. All blog posts must be categorized into Category:Blog posts.
 * 1) Blogs must be on-topic – This means they must discuss something related to the site, whether it be new material coming out that will impact our articles and what changes will need to be made, announcing changes to the site structure or content, organizing a project for improving the site or an article, or discussing potential changes in policy.
 * 2) No fan fiction – This is a canonical wiki, not the place for fan fiction. There are many Half-Blood fan fiction sites across the Internet, and even a Percy Jackson Fan Fiction Wiki. Users will be redirected to these sites. In the case of abuse, the user can be banned under administrative authority.
 * 3) Keep it civil – Civility is expected to be maintained in all blog posts and comments. Blogs are not to be used to make a point or make personal attacks against users.
 * 4) No objectionable material – Please remember that this is a wiki that children and parents are likely to read. No foul language, or content of a sexual nature.
 * 5) Your blog is not your primary contribution to this wiki – Users who edit their blogs excessively will be subject to sanction. Excessive blog editing, in this case, is defined as over 15% of a user's total edits are in the Blog domain. The majority of a user's edits should be in the more useful (Main space)/Template/Category domains. Users who have an excessive number of their edits in the blog namespace will be warned and potentially blocked at the administrators' discretion.
 * 6) Blogs do not replace forums – Blogs should not be used to ask for help or other site questions that would be more appropriate in one of the Forums, such as the help desk. These blogs will be moved to the appropriate forum before being deleted. Similarly, blogs do not replace article talk pages in being used to talk about changes to a specific article.
 * 7) Creating welcome blogs – If you are a new user to the site, you may want to introduce yourself to the other members. However, creating a blog to welcome yourself creates clutter on the blog page and the blogs themselves are unrelated to the Camp Half-Blood series. If you do make a blog like this, be prepared as it will be deleted.

Admin elections
I think we could make a blog about this, One that could have a poll. I know it might be declined but this would be a cool way to get users to vote. SoN  ~ My Swag is better than yours  12:04, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

For polls that means anonymous users can vote as well and only registered users are allowed to vote. Also, if you change your IP address you could have multiple people voting for one person. SayuriDarling  ~ And she tried to survive living her life on her own.  19:38, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

Greek mythology
Could I make a blog which discusses parts of Greek Mythology which have not been included by Rick Riordan or as I'm new to this thing, is that lame? Jackoshannon345 (talk &bull; contribs) 19:29, January 6, 2013 (UTC)


 * There are so many parts to Greek mythology you couldn't even begin to mention all of them in 8 books. That's all I'm saying. SayuriDarling   ~ And she tried to survive living her life on her own.  19:38, January 6, 2013 (UTC)

✅We haven't had a new blog in ages.

Is Percy Jackson going to have to repeat a grade in Highschool?
I want to make a blog about this because I've been wondering because when Hera put Percy to sleep she also let him miss alot of school and by The Mark of Athena he has missed a whole year. Kid Neptune   Got My lil Pikachu here  06:23, January 8, 2013 (UTC)

✅If I were Percy, I would just drop out; He's probably gonna die sooner or later anyway.

(More Detailed) Interview with Thor Freudenthal
So I found an interview of Thor, and he explains what we'll be seeing in SoM movie. No they aren't vague details, they're pretty descriptive to be frank. HC (talk this way)(stalk this way) 20:53, January 10, 2013 (UTC)

The Effects of Fame and Success of Actors and Their Movies/The Difference Between Books and Their Movie Adaptions
I have never made a blog on this wiki, but I have some things that have been bouncing around in my heard for quite a while. I would like to discuss the effect actors success(Logan in particular) have on the popularity of a series, and how that will affect out site. Also to be discussed, the differences between books and their film adaptations, how fan bases perceive them, and my opinion on The Lightning Thief and the topics of the the paragraph above. --Vgfsirius (talk &bull; contribs) 12:59, January 12, 2013 (UTC)

Predictions

Blogs like this already exist (example).

A blog like this already exists (here).

Wiki Alliances
We all got a message asking us to join "wiki alliance," which seems to be an attempt to group similar wikis together. http://www.wikia.com/Alliance is the link. I'd like to make a blog asking the community if we should join, like we did for Fantasy Fellowship.

I actually think a poll on the main page might be a better idea. --Vgfsirius (talk &bull; contribs) 02:42, January 30, 2013 (UTC)

What if an admin...not going to say who...already entered our name in the thing. Darkcloud1111  Fastest Hero Alive  02:44, January 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * What alliance might this mysterious admin have entered us for?
 * Fantasy Fellowship and Heroes United, as the series deals with Mythology (Fantasy) and the main characters are Heroes (Heroes United)...or that is what I would think. Darkcloud1111  umbreon1111.gif Fastest Hero Alive  02:49, January 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * You didn't even ask the admins? e.e This is more of an rb+ or admin only thing anyway. SayuriDarling   ~ And she tried to survive living her life on her own.  04:08, January 30, 2013 (UTC)
 * The application didn't say whoever was submitting it needed a vote (unlike the Fellowship thing). All it asked was if the person submitting the application was an Admin, and if they weren't then they needed to supply a link to show support (like a vote or something). I figured even if we did vote, everyone would say yes and I didn't see the staff people contact the other B-crats so I just went ahead and did it...that is if it was me >_> Darkcloud1111  umbreon1111.gif Fastest Hero Alive  04:22, January 30, 2013 (UTC)
