Getting started

First, you should get an account.

It's easy to edit the wiki; the code is very simple. Click "edit" or "view source" on any page to see how that page was done. If you want a full list of commands, visit Help:Editing.

Creating new pages

If you want to create a new page:

  1. Type the exact name of your page into the search box on the left.
  2. Click "Go".
  3. Click on the "this exact title" link to create the new page.
  4. Use the "Show preview" function below the edit window before you save your page.

Page titles

  • Use Full RS name for the page titles of people, instead of Rank Name, because ranks change but names rarely do.

Advanced editing

Peruse Wikipedia for examples of advanced editing.
