Starting from next week, I should have more time to work on the site.
And I think the best thing to add on the site now, is to add real content...

For that reason, I was thinking that the best place to find interesting content about balto is...here, on the forums!

That's why I was thinking about using the information on the forums to make interesting articles on the site.

So, what I need is to find the MOST INTERESTING topics on the forums (old or not, but old would be better in fact), and post the links to them here.
Then I (or we) will have to mix the topics that are similar, and write articles from them.

All the topics must be related to any Balto. Nothing off-topic.
For example, I can already take the "unseen scenes from balto", or the "cameo appearances of old characters in balto 3" topics. No offtopics, but I can accept topics comparing balto to another film, or topics related to fan arts for example...As long as it stays related to balto in a way.

Of course, if some of you are interested in writing good articles yourself, I will be more than pleased to add them on the site. And you will be credited for writing the article of course.

So if some of you are interested in doing this little work, then...write or search and post links!
And don't be lazy, I give you all the chance to really work on the site! :wink:

Ok, thank you already for all these. But I think there is much more than that.
And don't forget, I said you can write your own articles! (but maybe I will have to make one or two myself, and make a system to send articles, before you get what I expect by this)

Oh I'm happy to write articles, I love writing, but I'm pretty busy at the moment, maybe later on in the week I'll begin one. :D I would've found more topics as well, but I'm lazy. :lol: I shall go on another hunt!

I would also like to notice that I will take care of the translations between english and french, so there may be articles similar, if for example the french fans have the same topics ideas as you.
I'm currently making a system to add and display articles on the site, it will take some time...But whenever you have an article ready, just post it here in this topic. Of course you can include images, links or whatever you want, just post your article as you want it to be.
Last thing, I don't want articles that are only your general opinion about the films, because I will make also a system to add reviews about the films but in a different section...

If you want, that can be an idea. But be careful about talking about the war...I don't want it to start again, and to split people again.

I've decided to make an article about the museum exhibition, because I know a fair bit about that :D I'll have it ready ASAP and post the draft here.

Ok, well I have added on the site the whole system of articles. There is an article I made about the character names in the "Analysis" section for Balto 1, and I moved all the things that were in the "Other" section of Balto 1 & 2 to the "Products" sections of Articles. (I'm not sure that it is really clear... :lol:)
So you can already see how it looks like, and see better what I'm expecting.

Hey Steet.

I wrote and submitted an article for your site about the WQ6. I wasn't sure what section it belonged in since I also began talking about telling Kodi apart from the group and which ones were named . . .

By the way, is there anyway to edit our articles after they are submitted?

Thanks.

Finished another one!

I wasn't sure about where this one went either . . . . (I like writing difficult articles that can fit in two areas, don't I?) If you can, put both articles whereever you feel they belong , okay?

Thanks!

Ok, that's good news :)
No, you can't edit your articles after having validating them, because there's no login/password for protecting, and so anyone would be able to edit the articles... But I can do it for you. Your articles are already on the site. I think the categories you chose were fine.
Togo, maybe you should write in english first and then translate to italian, that's what I'm doing for everything I post on the site (writing in english and then translating in french) and I find that it's a lot easier that way.
