Creating a Wikipedia entry

Unless your friend has done something significant, it will get deleted once somebody who cares comes across it.

How significant does it have to be? I do a lot of volunteer and civic work here in the city, but most everyone won't care about it. I'm also not sure anyone would actually come across my wiki entry unless they were specifically looking for me. Not that I have one... yet.

i was actually wondering this today. can wiki's be made for non famous people? like could el diablo have a wiki since he has made a lot of somewhat important points here and they could be compiled and that could be a reasonable wiki? or do they have to be famous to the general public? i guess im just wondering what the guidelines for this would be.]

wouldn't that wiki page then end up revealing his identity?

i imagine if there was a 2+2 page on wikipedia, you could certainly have a section on notable posters, but i doubt that's something a lot of people around here want to see happen.

OOT improved the 2+2 wiki a few months back- articles on famous posters and threads but it was quickly deleted for some reason.

it doesn't have to be significant. my off-campus fraternity (not national, just us) is on wikipedia.

Wikipedia used one of my photos for an entry. I did not know though until I did a search of one of my screen name and found this page.
