Disneys Online Worlds (http://www.disneysonlineworlds.com/index.php/Main_Page) (otherwise know as DOW) strives to be a comprehensive resource for Disney Online Games. It is written and maintained by a group of editors, but we rely heavily on non-editor image and information submissions to remain as up-to-date and complete as possible.

Information on the DOW wiki is accessible to everyone. You only need to join if you wish to be able to edit pages. We cannot always accept everyone who applies, and sometimes we just don't have a need for more editors. Even if you apply but are not accepted, this doesn't mean we don't want your help. We urge you to continue to assist the wiki as a non-editor by getting us needed images and information.

The following explains how to apply and was adapted from a guide written by VMKF member Alexthedragon.


Step One: Visit the Wiki

First things first, we have to visit the site. The URL is http://www.disneysonlineworlds.com (http://www.disneysonlineworlds.com/) Once there, you will see the following:

If you are there, go to step two.

Step Two: Signing Up

Now is the most challenging part. Scroll down on the homepage until you see:

"If you would like to be able to edit/moderate this wiki, please email with your forum username and what you would contribute to applications@disneysonlineworlds.com"

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/gallery/data/547/medium/mailsn1.png

Send in your appliacation and wait for a reply.

Step Three: Wait

Your application needs time to be processed. Please be patient. During this time DOW moderators are looking over your posts and your behavior on the forums. The DOW moderators like to see that potential editors can follow forum rules and make productive posts. It is important that the editing staff of DOW be able to work together. WE look for editors who will work well with our team.

If your application is rejected, we would love it if you continued helping us by submitting information for the wiki here on the forums. Feel free to apply again at a later date.

If you are accepted, continue on to the next step.

Step Four: New Password

Time to make an easier to remember password. Click "My preferences" at the top of the page and scroll until you see the Change password area.

Enter your old password and then your new password twice. Press save and then you are done.

Step Five: Editing!

Congrats! You are now a Disney Online Worlds Editor! Have fun and help make the wiki better! See the DOW Rules and Guidelines (http://www.disneysonlineworlds.com/index.php/DOW_Rules_and_Guidelines)

Step Six: Logging In to Edit

After you log out, you will have to log back in to edit. Press Log in/create account at the top and type your username and password from before. If you forget your password, press "E-mail password." If you don't want to log back in each time, just check "Remember my login on this computer."

Exactly the reason I made it for. :)

However, there seems to be still threads asking how to register...

Will they look up before they create their thread?

How do I join the WIKI if I just want to belong to read about the helpful hints and things but not contribute as far as editing,etc., since I'm no good at computers? Am I allowed still to join WIKI?? If so, how??? Thanks.

You don't have to join if you just want to view it. Just visit the site.

The wiki at Disney's Online Worlds (http://www.disneysonlineworlds.com/index.php/VMK) is available for everyone to read and use!

You only need to join it if you wish to edit it. You don't need to be a computer person, even!

Thanks Prisoner for helping clear that up.

Which username should I use to apply? My TTC username is different. :confused:

I have just applied. Hope I am accepted! :D

Which username should I use to apply? My TTC username is different. :confused:
Hmm... I'd try submitting both. Try putting "My VMKF name is blah blah blah, and my TTC username is bleh bleh bleh."


Also, just as a side note, Nick usually only accepts users that are active and have a fairly large amount of posts, so he can (more or less) know if he can trust them.

Since the Wiki is operated by both TTC, VMKf (and now POF) you can use either name. The only requirement is that you be a member of one of the three forums.

Good luck,

I am going to apply, but just a note: The Email: applications@disneysonlineworlds.com
When you click it it says it is not properly installed. Thanks and hope I am accepted :).

It is not the email address that is not properly installed but rather something is wrong with your email program (not sure what other than it probably isn't recognized as your default or something.)

Anyhow, copy the email adress, open your email program, paste the address into the "To" box.

Good luck

I got an email saying we are taking your application into consideration... whats that mean?

It means just what it says - we're thinking about it. The letter is so you know we've gotten your request and it didn't get lost.

The mods who work on the wiki talk to the other mods and admins to discuss people who ask and consider if you will be a good fit to become an editor.

it has been 4 or 5 month since i sent my application. when will i get an answer. do i have to submit it again?

A wiki is a place where people can add information about different subjects any time they want. For our wiki however, you need to submit an application to applications@disneysonlineworlds.com and be accepted by a DOW mod in order to edit the wiki. You can view the wiki for free though at disneysonlineworlds.com.

As for starting a new thread, just click on the http://www.vmkforums.com/forums/images/buttons/newthread.gif in the forum you want to post in. Be sure the forum relates to what you are talking about. ;)

Wow...this is still up?

Hehe..I quit a long time ago, but decided to drop in. ;)

Darn..the replies on all the other sites say nice guide to the poster, not me..oh well. :)
