Editing Basic's

Here we will try to explain the basic's in Wiki editing

Search

Before creating or editing a page use the search function to assure that the content does not exist elsewhere on site.

How to create a page

To make a new page go to the page you want its link to appear on and click edit. Find the section you want it to appear in then input this character [ twice, name of page here, then ] twice, save page. Now where you put name of page, name of page here should be in red, this means that no page exists. Click on the link you created and a new page will open. You nay now start your page.

Redirecting

Redirecting a page is not to be taken lightly. You should probably inform your leader and let them do it.

Remaking

Templates

Templates are our friends. They permit us to recreate a page format repeatedly. Most of the content present on the wiki that shows up in a table is actually a template. Those that are not will eventually be.

How to edit a page

Internal Link Linking to a page in the Wiki

External Link Linking to a page outside of the Wiki

Ignore Wiki Code Ignores the Wiki code you have selected or highlighted and shows it as normal text as shown in it's preview

Signature Of no use to us

Break Inserts a horizontal line across the page; used as a separator without depending on Headers

Making Content

Tools

Link to tools here you will find some images that might help you in the creation of content. Templates, clean maps, and other things that can be used to stay in the same theme that has been established om the wiki.

Headers and Headlines

For a top-level heading, put it on a separate line surrounded by '=='. For example:

== Introduction ==

Subheadings use '===', '====', and so on.

Using Links

Adding links to other pages is quite simple. There are 2 types we use.

In-Wiki linking

In-Wiki means that the place we are linking to is here on the wiki. It is done by adding [[what you wish to link to ]]

Note if you wish a different term to appear instead of the link itself just add |(name here). Example [what you wish to link to| '''name here''' ]]on the page it would look like this example as opposed to this [[what you wish to link to ]] on the page it would look like this Main_Page both go to the same place but carry a different name.

You may also link to a specific place in a page if it contains a table of content. This is done by going to the page you want to reference and selecting its spot in the table of contents. Now this example is from a very long page so if I want to save my reader a little time and send him/her right to the spot he/she is looking for I would make my link like this.[[Choosing_the_right_class#Magician|Magician]] I want to send my reader to the "Magician" section of the page "Choosing the right Class" and I want Magician to appear as name for the link. See here Magician

Out-Wiki linking

Out-Wiki means that the place we are linking to is somewhere on the Net. It is done by adding full address of what you wish to link to Example http://flyff.gpotato.com/ http://flyff.gpotato.com/ or like this to change name [full address of what you wish to link to '''"space"''' name that appears on link] Example [http://flyff.gpotato.com/ Flyff] Flyff

Minor and Major editing

A MINOR edit is small grammar and spelling edit, sentence fixes or additions, and/or erasing incorrect information. *Also: Most of the things people post on the gpotato forum for us to fix or change and add count as minor edits, therefore any of the editors may fix and add what the players point out.*

A MAJOR edit is changing more then 10 sentences in a paragraph on a page that belongs in a section you are not teamed with, moving content sections within pages, moving, adding or deleting photos in pages and making new pages in a section that you are not teamed with.

After you edit your page make sure to put in the "summary" field a short description of what you changed.

Put: "MINOR: Summary of your edit here."

"MAJOR: Summary of your edit here."

"PHOTO: Summary of your edit here."

Tagging pages

There are a lot of Editors and Mods who have been working for a long time on pages. The more you work on something, the more attached you become. SO please! Be careful of what you edit!

Make sure that when you find a page you enjoy working on, and see you have much to offer and don't want others touching it name it yours! Putting the <!--Put Comment Here--> Tag in the very top of the content will show when another editor presses "edit" to change the page. Remember to put your name in the tag. This tag will not show on the view, and will only be seen in the editor. Also you may add this template {{User Project | JoeSmith}}so viewers know that the page is being actively worked on. Don't forget to replace JoeSmith with your user name.

If you Tag a page of content make sure you will dedicate yourself to that page since no one else will be touching it! If you are going to tag it and do not update it within two weeks, in which updates and edits have been offered on the Flyff Forum, it will be up for grabs.

When you finish a page tell me or another Moderator, and put a {{Completed Version | 1?}} Tag so people know its been fixed and read and is done (for the time being).

Also, if you would like to continue working on the work but will not be around for a long time you *may* decide to put <!--Last edited by *name here*, Hiatus as of *date here*--> So people know not to completely turn your hard work into something else or carnage, and just do minor edits.

Wiki Sections

The Wiki has been split into sections and each Moderator is in charge of them. We call these teams. The editors are able to choose what team or section they want to be on or work on. You can choose two different sections of your choosing. Each Mod will be in charge of that Team!! This team system is how I will organize us evenly so we can work faster and much more efficiently!!

Sidenote: Just because you are assigned a section, doesn't mean you are limited to it. The Gpotato Flyff Forums for the Wiki Section is currently being used as a bridge between players and editors to add as much content to the Wiki as possible. You as an editor may go and add, or edit things they point out in the Forum.

Be careful what you add and watch out for the <!--THIS BELONGS TO ME--> Tags on the top of certain pages! Or this template {{User Project | JoeSmith}} Don't worry about telling an editor they need to update it, if they tagged it, they will definitely be looking out for it!

Team Leaders

Team leaders more or less decide how they want their section to look. What it should contain. They distribute tasks to the editors and provide guidance. To reach your team leader you should go to our special forum and post in his or her section.

Section Teams

Here you will find all information pertaining to Quests available in Flyff

Section responsibilities

Each section is responsible for the content of there section. As editors we must check links, spelling and content. Once the Wiki goes live, we may have to police the content being posted.

Wiki Forum

What it is, where it is, what its for blahblahblahb and LINKI POO!

Where is it? --Aerandir 16:26, 21 June 2009 (PDT)

The Wiki forum has been deleted a long time ago. We don't have one anymore, so we are using the Official forum or try to PM eachother on the forum or through msn.
