* Don't use underscores in links - you don't need them! Example: <nowiki>[[</nowiki><font style="background:#E6FFE6;">item creation</font><nowiki>]]</nowiki> is equivalent to <nowiki>[[</nowiki><font style="background:#E6FFE6;">item_creation</font><nowiki>]]</nowiki>, and looks twice as neat.
* Use wikitext instead of HTML when possible. Example: * lists instead of <br> lists
* Try to limit use of colored text for colorblind accessibility.
* Add descriptions to new pictures. (If you need help on this, just ask!)
* Use the [[Special:Categories|categories]] and [[:Category:Template|templates]] when appropriate. Look at a similar page and see what it uses for hints.
* Use <nowiki>[[links]]</nowiki> when referring to other pages (refrain from linking the same page multiple times in the same article.)
* Much of our crafting information has been moved into the Itembox template, including dye information. Please don't add crafting instructions to the main wiki article, unless you check in with other WAs/staff. If you need help with the itembox, ask in Discord.
* Don't create a table of add specific skill gains at each skill level with a specific tool. This would be better for a guide. Please make guides!**You may add specific gated skill levels to make an item, such as 60 carpentry required to make a large crate.
* Don't use dates for updates or links to posts.
* Don't use information taken from WU or speculation.
* We no longer add food recipes to the wiki, including links.
* Avoid personal bias when editing, including personal feelings on hardware. When in doubt, take it to the talk page.
* Do not post suggestions. They belong in the forums or on IRC - not here.
* If you need to add a picture, a WA can upload it for you. Don't use a link to an outside website.
* Everything on the Wurmpedia is a work in progress, including this handbook.
We have moved much of the information on crafting into the itembox template, including dye information. Please don’t add crafting instructions to the main article. If you need assistance with the template, ask in the Discord.
==Translations==
Officially, the Wurmpedia is only in English. Please refrain from creating non-English pages.
That being said, we are starting to work on translations of [[Your_first_days_in_Wurm_Online]] ONLY. This is limited and will be subject to its own set of rules, while we adjust.
