 Refer to [[Style]] for guidance on rules that help to maintain Wurmpedia's standards.<br><br>
 There is a [http://wikipedia.mozdev.org/index.html Firefox Extension for editing the wiki], which is very useful.
 Consider creating [[MetaWikiPedia:Template]] for text that is often used. Templates could be used to make menus, headers, and footers. The main WikiPedia use them a lot. For example: [[MetaWikiPedia:Template:H:f_Help|Help Footer]].
