As this is for the most part a lore wiki, it would be a very good idea to avoid posting large lists of data from directly ingame (such as guild help files) and preferable to write pages that summarize the lore and history of guilds/cities in an entertaining manner. I will be attempting to do so myself but my time is limited and help would be appreciated. [[User:Maghak|Maghak]] 07:33, 1 May 2014 (UTC) | |||

This is the official discussion page for the entire wiki. Here, you can find out how to contribute to the wiki, or chip in on any wiki-related talk.
- Q: How do I create a new topic?
- A: Next to the "edit" tab at the top of the page is a '+' symbol. Click that to get a form that will let you fill out a new topic.
- Q: How do I respond to something?
- A: Click the "[edit]" on the right side of a topic's header. Once there, you may post a response by adding a new line beneath the line you wish to answer. Please indent your answer using a colon. Example:
Hi guys, this is a post on the community discussion page! {{User:Lin/sig}}
:Well ah do reckon it's a mighty fancy privilege, bein' able to talk to you an' all. ~~~~
- When you've posted something on here, please sign your post, so we know who you're talking about! The easiest way to sign your post is to simply type ~~~~, which will append your name to your post. You can also add a fancy signature in one of two ways; find out here.
Ways to Help
If you have free time and would like to help out, here's a list of things that can be done:
- Check the list of wanted articles. This is automatically generated when two or more pages contain links to a page that doesn't yet exist.
- Categorize articles. We have a list of existing categories and a list of uncategorized articles. To add an article to a category, click that page's edit link and at the bottom of the entry, type [[Category:Category Name]] (Where "Category Name" is the relevant approved, existing category) and click "Save Page". E-points if you mention what categories you added in the summary box.
- Expand on stubs. Stubs are articles that are far too short, and require more information. If you are feeling lazy, be sure to also mark short articles as stubs as well! You can do this by inserting {{Stub}} at the bottom of the article, above the categorization if applicable. Adding the Stub template will also automatically put that article in the Stub category. Note that creating just stubs (that is, a new page with maybe one line and {{Stub}} ) is not really any better than just leaving it blank.
- Expand on articles that were either copied from the game, or are poorly written.
- Add images to articles.
- Eliminate dead-end pages by adding links to other articles.
- Priority pages: Sidebar!
- The sidebar pages are the most visible and will probably be the first any new player will access. It is imperative that these contain useful articles.
