May I acquire the trusted flag? I am new, and the ability to edit pages later on is a comfort I would like to have.

Code: Select all

 x = 11, y = 9, rule = B3/S23

I just created a LifeWiki account and i'd like the permission to edit.

Another edit: Seems i could edit LifeWiki pages, so i guess the answer is yes.

Hello,

There isn't any inconvenience and I fully agree with this method.

So, may I get a Trusted Account on LifeWiki ?

Thanks a lot.

What is your account on the wiki?
(I'm not anyone who could set an account to be trusted, but I think you need to link/name your wiki account, to avoid confusion.)

There is a general rule that you don't add your own discoveries to the wiki (except under your user page, for example, User:TheOddball524/my_pattern). The best place to post your own discoveries and constructions is on the forums.

For example, you could post your pattern in Thread for your unsure discoveries for Conway's Game of Life patterns or Miscellaneous Discoveries in Other Cellular Automata for other CA patterns.

Edit: as confocaloid points out, the LifeWiki notability guidelines state
To prevent overenthusiastic edits and conflicts of interest, a commonly accepted rule is that the discoverer of a pattern, inventor of new terminology, writer of a program, etc., etc., should not be the one to document that pattern, term, or program on the LifeWiki.

Trusted flag is added. Read through the links in the How to contribute link on the LifeWiki home page before you get too far into editing.

Not sure what this question means. We do have a Life Lexicon, though "several years out of date" seems to be its natural state these days.

For some reason just now I decided to make an account.

May I have the trusted flag?

(also part of the reason I request this is to edit my own user page)

(account name is ErRoR 6o6 because of name capitalization issues (and alternate name cases that i sometimes use))

I think that 1 month (plus 3 days) is over. Do not forget that the block is for one month!

Not to worry, I'm keeping a close eye on the date. The tempban, or rather temp-trusted-flag-removal, was on March 30, and tomorrow is April 30.

(... That might be a month plus one day depending on how you calculate, but not a month plus three days, unless you're measuring months in units of February!)

But today is April 30 in my Time zone. Sorry for hassling you or sounding like an unblock request.

No problem! Okay, then, close enough...

(Maybe we're halfway between a 30-day month and a 31-day month now.)

As a rule of thumb, people shouldn't put their own discoveries on the wiki. See LW:NB for details. It's best to let other people determine whether the reaction or the pattern is new, whether it is notable, and where/how to add it if it is notable.

"Unsure discovery" patterns can and should be posted here on the forums.

For patterns and reactions in B3/S23 (Life):
* viewtopic.php?f=2&t=576 Thread for your unsure discoveries

For patterns and reactions in cellular automata other than B3/S23:
* viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1971 Miscellaneous Discoveries in Other Cellular Automata

Two registrations, two captchas and manual verification on top of it? Are you kidding?
