| − | ==General guidelines==
| |
| − | | |
| − | These guidelines are not meant to make WurmPedia a bureaucracy, but to make it easier for everyone (including you) to edit and discuss things. Remember you can help people get to know how to use a wiki, even if you're a beginner yourself.
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Keep pages short.
| |
| − | * Avoid use of HTML when wiki markup will do.
| |
| − | * Keep the content of the article focused.
| |
| − | * Be respectful of others.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Discussion guidelines===
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Put discussion on the '''discussion''' tab (every page has one).
| |
| − | * Sign your name with four tildes <nowiki> ~~~~ </nowiki> at the '''end''' of your comment.
| |
| − | * Put your comment below all the rest under a given header.
| |
| − | * Do not interrupt other peoples comments.
| |
| − | * Put new topics under a new header at the '''bottom''' of a page.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Editing etiquette===
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Avoid deleting other people's work.
| |
| − | * If you must delete and something you deleted reappears, '''do not''' delete it a second time. Use <s>strikethrough</s> and work it out with the other person using the '''discussion''' tab (every page has one) or the user's '''discussion''' tab (every user has one).

| |
| − | | |
| − | 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]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some [[:Category:Template|common templates]] here are:
| |
| − | :*<nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> which marks a page as being a stub and lists it in the [[:Category:Stub]] page.
| |
| − | :*<nowiki>{{cleanup}}</nowiki> which marks a page´s layout as requiring attention.
| |
| − | :*<nowiki>{{copyedit}}</nowiki> which marks a page´s spelling or grammar as needing improvement.
