| | |
| ==How to Create==
| |
| To create a new page, click on a link to a page that doesn't exist yet. You can also create pages by entering them into the search box and clicking Go. Note that the first letter of every page will be capitalized.
| |
| | |
| ==What Pages to Create==
| |
| Although page creation can be done by any User, the page created must be significant to MarioWiki. For example, a page on "[[Ball]]" or "[[Sheep]]" would be deleted because they are not needed pages on Mariowiki. Creating non-sensical pages such as "[[ASDFG]]" will be deleted immediately and may be considered [[Help:Vandalism|Vandalism]].
| |
| | |
| Now, what pages should you create? Pages that relate to the Marioverse and are basically things you could not find in a regular dictionary. There are a few exceptions such as [[Player]] or [[Characters]]. If you are unsure on whether a page should be made, discuss it at [[MarioWiki talk:Pipe Plaza]]. You may also see [[Special:Wantedpages]] to see the page that need creation. Be sure to make the article name singular unless the article refers to a group of characters or items.
| |
| | |
| ==What to Do Before Creating a Page==
| |
| Be sure to add categories to the pages before you create them. If you are not sure on what categories to add, see [[Special:Categories]] for a list of categories. Also see [[Help:Expanding Articles]].
| |
| | |
| Made a page for an article but don't know much about it? Add <nowiki>{{Stub}}</nowiki> to the bottom of the page.
| |
| | |
| Be sure to use the correct first sentence structure:
| |
| | |
| <pre><nowiki>'''<insert article name here>'''</nowiki> is/are ..... that appear in <nowiki>''[[insert game here]]''</nowiki>.</pre>
| |
| | |
| ==What to Do After Creating a Page==
| |
| It is preferred that you replace all previously unlinked articles with the same name as the page to be linked by placing <nowiki>[[ and ]]</nowiki> on both sides. See [[Help:Link]] for more information.
