Help:Editing

Wiki Syntax

The syntax used for editing this site is the same as for Wikipedia. The syntax can be found on this page.

Guidelines

An important thing to remember is that this is an encyclopedia, so if something in your sentence is an item, area, mob, spell, class, race, ability, etc, you should link to it. For example, if you mention somewhere in a sentence the area A Moment in Nature, it should be linked (and make sure it's spelled correctly). Linking wherever it is mentioned rather than once in paragraphs/texts is encouraged.

When areas/items/mobs are removed, instead of being deleted the pages should be added to the OOG category.

Templates

To write/edit a page, please use the following templates (they will be updated if something changes). Please do not deviate from the templates. If a section (map, links, etc) doesn't exist, just omit all of it (do not write the headline).
