Adding a Character
I highly encourage everyone to add the characters they play to the wiki. It's fast, easy and lets us grow a knowledge base that everyone can look back on and use to remember what happened in our story. Add both your current and past characters! For dead characters try writing a range of dates played and what impact they had on the story.
If you are familiar with the Wiki editing process you are welcome to create your own character or location page using the instructions detailed here. If you would like help getting your page set up, please see this page for Vampire or this page for Werewolf.
Creating a New Page
To create a brand new page find the search box at the top of site. Enter in your desired page name; for example Test Page, and hit search. You will be directed to a page that lists all the pages in the wiki that reference your search term. Take a quick look to see if there is an existing page that matches what you want to create first, and if not, look for this line
and click the red link. Now you have the standard edit box in which you can write any text that you like.Create the page "Test Page" on this wiki!
Categories
To add your new page to a category, first find where you would like your page to appear. If I am creating a page to give information about Meathead the Brujah, then I would want his link to show when looking at the Brujah category. At the bottom of his page I would add[[category:Brujah]]
Basic Formatting
To create headers wrap your text like thisFor each page that has more than three Sections you will get a table of contents box that appears at the top of the page.Code:==Section== ===Sub-section=== ====Sub-subsection====
To create the dashed box around a portion of text, leave one space at the beginning of the sentence.
Text Style
You can italicize text by putting 2 apostrophes on each side.
3 apostrophes will bolden the text.
5 apostrophes will bolden and italicize the text.
Linking
To link text to another page within the wiki we use the page's name. For example my character's page is http://myworldofdarkness.com/mgpedia...randa_Montreve. It is the part after '''title=''' that is the page name. So to link to my characters page from another I would simply write [[Miranda_Montreve|Miranda Montreve]].
To link to a page outside the wiki use [http://www.outsideurl.com Link Text].
Images
At the very bottom of any wiki page is a link that says Upload File. To use any image we must first upload it by clicking the link, choosing your file from your computer, giving it an EASY TO REMEMBER file name and clicking Upload File.
Now you return to the page you were editing and insertYou can change the size that the picture shows by editing the 250px, you can switch it from right to left as well.[[Image:filename.jpg|thumb|250px|right|Caption Text]]
Those are the basics of wiki editing! To find more detailed instructions see the Wikimedia FAQ for Editors. If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me a pm.
