New page

Editing pages is very simple to do. You must be logged in to edit, if you need help on loging in or signing up then read [[Help:Getting Started|Getting Started]]. When you want to edit a page, make sure you're on the page and then click the '''Edit''' tab at the top. This should bring you to the editing page which provides a simple text editor and some shortkey buttons. Before you start editing make sure you have read the wiki formatting carefully do that you know how to format your page.

==Creating a Page==
There are three ways for creating a new page.

#Type the name of your new page in the search box and click '''Go'''. If the page does not exist then there sould be a link directing you to the page ready for editing.
#You can type the name of the page in the address bar. Use the address for this site and change the title to the name of your new page.
#Use the form below to create your new page.

<inputbox>
type=create
</inputbox>

==Wiki Formatting==

Some of the common formatting can be applied using the buttons at the top of editing page. For Example, Bold, Italic, Wiki Link, External Link, Level 2 Headline, Image. For more information about formatting text see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki_markup Wiki Markup].

===Interwiki links:===
{|border="1" cellspacing="1" class="wikitable" style="background-color:#F9F9F9;"
|-
!|Example
!|Source
|-
|[[Warrior]] || <code><nowiki>[[Warrior]]</nowiki></code>
|-
|[[Warrior]]s || <code><nowiki>[[Warrior]]s</nowiki></code>
|-
|[[Warrior|Useful Follower]] || <code><nowiki>[[Warrior|Useful Follower]]</nowiki></code>
|}

===External links:===
{|border="1" cellspacing="1" class="wikitable" style="background-color:#F9F9F9;"
|-
!|Example
!|Source
!|Notes
|-
|[http://populous.strategyplanet.gamespy.com] || <code><nowiki>[http://populous.strategyplanet.gamespy.com]</nowiki></code> || <nowiki>External link without description will be automatically shown as [#]. Make sure you include 'http://'</nowiki>.
|-
|[http://populous.strategyplanet.gamespy.com Populous Reincarnated] || <code><nowiki>[http://populous.strategyplanet.gamespy.com Populous Reincarnated]</nowiki></code> ||
|}

===Formatting===
{|border="1" cellspacing="1" class="wikitable" style="background-color:#F9F9F9;"
|-
!|Example
!|Source
|-
|'''Bold text''' || <code><nowiki>'''Bold text'''</nowiki></code>
|-
|''Italic text'' || <code><nowiki>''Italic text''</nowiki></code>
|-
|'''''Mixed text''''' || <code><nowiki>'''''Mixed text'''''</nowiki></code>
|}

===Headings===

Headings help people navigate through the page easier. If four or more headings are used in a page you will get a Contents box before the first heading on the page.

To use headings you use a certain amount of ('=')s. To do a standard heading use two '='. Then a sub heading would be three '=' and you can keep getting smaller.

<pre><nowiki>==Heading 1==</nowiki></pre>

===Lists===
* <nowiki>* - 1st Level Bullet</nowiki>
** <nowiki>** - 2nd Level Bullet</nowiki>

# <nowiki># - Numbered</nowiki>
# <nowiki># - Lists</nowiki>

===Other Formatting===
{|border="1" cellspacing="1" class="wikitable" style="background-color:#F9F9F9;"
|-
!|Example
!|Source
|-
|<nowiki>==No Format==</nowiki> || <code><nowiki><nowiki>/<nowiki></nowiki></code>
|-
|<s>Strike-through text</s> || <code><nowiki><s>Strike-through text</s></nowiki></code>
|-
|Superscript || <code><nowiki>Superscript</nowiki></code>
|-
|Subscript text || <code><nowiki>Subscript text</nowiki></code>
|-
|Small text || <code><nowiki>Small text</nowiki></code>
|-
| || <code><nowiki></nowiki></code>
|-
|<pre>Dotted Frame</pre> || <code><nowiki><pre>Dotted Frame</pre></nowiki></code>
|}

===Images===

You can add a centred image by putting <pre><nowiki>[[Image:Firewarrior.png|left|thumb|100px|image caption]]</nowiki></pre> in the edited text. Save the page, then click the link to upload the image. For more information, see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Picture_tutorial Picture tutorial].

===Redirect Pages===

Redirecting pages is good for when people search for pages. To help the search find more pages you can add pages that have a similar name for example Map Editing could be a redirect page to Map Making. If there are broken links that are meant to be pointing to a diffrent page it is better just to fix the link rather than make a redirect page.
Just type Redirect and then the page name.

<pre><nowiki>#redirect [[Help:Contents]]</nowiki></pre>

===Categories===

Adding a category link to the page adds the page to that category list. Make sure templates that you have used on the page do not already link to a category you were going to write.

<pre><nowiki>[[Category:Example]]</nowiki></pre>

If you want to just create a link to the category page, stick a colon before the page name.

<pre><nowiki>[[:Category:Example]]</nowiki></pre>
