Two Questions

[aruna7]

Hi all!

My first question concerns my personal page that I plan to set up. My issue is that I don't know whether to pick the "Fan" template or the "Person" one. Though I have a solid fannish activity (mostly in vidding) I am also a PhD student in film and media studies, and some of my previous work kind of involved fandom. And part of my thesis will also be related to that. So, any tip on which one to pick?

My second one is that I would be willing to write a few fandom pages for French movies and TV shows (most of them contemporary) that I already vidded or plan to. One of the TV shows at least, Les Bleus, Premiers Pas Dans La Police is still airing). May I go ahead when I have some free time?

Thanks by advance for all your answers!

You can only put one template on your page, and the template automatically adds its corresponding category, but you can have more than one category.

So--You can make your page with the Fan Profile template, which puts in the People and Fans categories and add the [[Category:Academia]] to the page as well.

Or you can use the Person Profile template, which only adds the People category I believe, and add whatever categories of person you are to that page. Either works.

Oh, and I would love to see more fandom pages--You might want to read the help pages on naming and making pages, but please do add away.

I use wiki a lot for an other project I'm part of, so I know how it works for the most part, but given that sometimes admins can be (rightfully) picky about how it shall work, I preferred asking first. I believe I'll go for the Fan template after all this discussion and will add extra categories.

I'm sorry if I wasn't too much clear!! =)

Thanks for the answer. and I'll definitely check the help pages for fandoms, as I hope to work on some in the near future.
