RetroMMO Wiki:Contributing

This is a general guide for contributing to the wiki. Please read all the following sections to avoid confusion and unnecessary work. Contributions not following the guidelines will be removed. < and > are used to mark where to type the values, do not include them! The easiest way to contact admins and ask about things is the official Discord which can be found on the front page. The wiki uses MediaWiki and thus is completely compatible with its syntax.

Files

How to view uploaded files: Go to List Files. How to add new files: Use Upload for an easy single image upload and Upload Wizard for more advanced use.

Templates

All templates are listed at templates. Templates are open to edits, but try to maintain a consistent style across the site.

Notes:

• File names should not include file endings (.png, .jpeg, etc.)
• The order of the fields does not affect the template, but consistency is preferred
• Notice the spaces on templates, otherwise it will not render properly!

Item

Notes:

• Do not add categories, they are applied automatically based on the row values
• Using multiple classes requires the use of double brackets around each class e.g. Wizard, Warrior
• Include only a single value on the slot field!
• Use dash (-) for negative effect, but do not use plus sign (+) for positive effect

Notes:

• If there is a const, use the corresponding stat, e.g. cost = 3 [[MP]]

}}

Tables

Tables use the regular MediaWiki table syntax.

Edit Common.css to change the visual appearance of the wiki on all the pages. Use the pre-existing style and add comments if necessary. Can only be edited by wiki admins.
