Welcome on the main wiki article ! Here you will find everything you need to edit wiki !

(Not able to edit wiki ? Maybe you should create an account !)

Contents

Getting familiar with wiki editing

  • The Help:Contents article will help you to get familiar with wiki syntax ! It contains everything you need about how to format a text in bold, italics underline it and so on, or how to make a link, to upload a picture on wiki, etc !

Instructions

  • Join #2238wiki IRC channel whenever you edit wiki !
  • Do not modify players factions where you do not belong.
  • Screenshots have to be taken in broad daylight, with Namecolorizing turned off. Display of names also off would be good.
  • Players factions article might be created, but can only be linked on the player-driven factions article, if they are created.
  • Remember not to edit AHS-9 templates (tables in weapons articles, for example).
  • Use the preview command before you save a page. When adding many links or pictures, it is helpful to make sure that all of the code is in correctly.
  • If your English is poor, do not be ashamed. Just post a link to the page you've created here to be checked. You can also post there when you'd just like someone to look over your page.
  • The settings for your account on this wiki can be very helpful. It is recommended that you set your timezone, and it never hurts to edit the page about yourself.
  • Under editing settings, allowing either double-clicking on the page or right-clicking on the title allows you to edit quickly.
  • Tick "Minor modification" when for example you modify grammar mistakes, or do only a small modification.

Wiki moderators

Wiki moderators are here to make sure your modifications are tremendous. They will correct your mistakes and help you when they can, or revert bad modifications.

List of wiki moderators

These people have op (@) or halfop (%) on #2238wiki IRC channel.

What's to do ?

  • All that needs to be edited is on the To do article, go there and see what you want to do !
  • You can also, if you want, create an article for your faction, but it won't be linked anywhere on the wiki, you'll have to remember the article name.
  • Adding relevant pictures is always needed !
