Getting Started
- First if you would like to help with the wiki you'll need to Create an Account.
- Once you've done that, don't be afraid to click the edit tab to jump in and add any missing information.
Before Editing:
- If you plan to change anything that has already been done, be sure to check the discussion tab before making any changes.
- If you are adding a page, please check the Templates to make sure there isn't a Template you should be using to add the new page.
- If you're editing a page that uses a Template, you should check the Templates to make sure that you are using the most up to date Template.
- If you're having any trouble understanding anything, you can always checkout the User's Guide for Editors at MediaWiki to learn more about wiki editing.
Additional Tips:
- When adding to the wiki, be careful not to give anything away; the wiki is here to help, not give away the game. (For example, maps should be left as is, chests and secret passages shouldn't be labeled because it's up to players to figure things like that out on their own.)
- Often things written in italics are directly quoted from the game, especially descriptions.
- When you add something to a discussion, you should sign it with "~~~~" (minus the quotes), which will automatically be changed to "Marksalot 07:58, 29 June 2011 (CDT)".
Thanks for helping and happy editing!
