Ekkhiadwiki:Help

From Ekkhiadwiki

Please help out Ekkhiad by expanding the Wiki. You will first need to register.

Once registered, feel free to make changes to any page. Articles marked with a "This article is a stub" or "This article is an urgent stub" should be expanded.

Also, you can create any new page you want by simply going to that page name (ekkhiadwiki.eggbits.com/Page Name).

Please help out by not only expanding stubs, but also creating new pages that have been linked to. Some articles contain red links, which means that the page that it is linking to hasn't been created yet. Please help by creating these pages.

Also, many images were uploaded on the old wiki, and haven't been transferred yet, so please help by uploading them if you can get the files.

An easy way to find pages that haven't been created or need to be expanded is by using the Random Page link on the sidebar.

How to Edit

Click the edit button next to Article near the top of a page. You need to press Save Changes to publish your edits.

Editing Syntaxes:

To make a section title, put == == around the text, like
== History ==

To make a subsection, put === === around it, same thing for subsubsection but with ==== ====.

To mark a page as a stub, put {{stub}} or {{Urgent stub}} at the bottom of a page.

The most important editing syntax is page linking. Simply put double brackets around any word to link to the article with that title. If the page doesn't exist yet, still link to it, so someone can create it. (The links will just show up in red). Link example:

[[Alsberd]]

To link to an outside page, just use one bracket around the url, like:
[http://site.com/blah.html]

To put in an image, upload it using Special:Upload, then put double brackets around it:
[[Image:Image_Name]]

To insert a remote image, simply paste in the url:
http://site.com/image.jpg

To make text bold, surround it by three apostrophes, like
'''bold text'''

To make text italic, surround it by two apostrophes (NOT using shift-apostrophe on the keyboard, press the apostrophe key twice), like
''italic text'' NOT "italic text"

Special Pages

Special pages are pages that are not part of the wiki content and most have lists of different pages. A list of all the special pages can be found here.
