  • also, whenever you make a contribution (editing and adding content) it will link to your user page

Tag a Page (Quick Sorting)

Whenever you notice a page that might need one special attention, grab the appropriate tag and edit it into the page
  • These tags are ment for the top of pages, but not elusively. Its only because that's where they grab the most attention, and are easy to remove when it has served it's purpose
  • Each of these templates has the option to be filled with a message to explain why the tag was placed there, please use that option if possible (more info on the templates)
  • Check out the categories linked to the tags, to see if you could help sort something out

Quick WikiMarkup Overview

Need to do something besides plain text? It is really easy. Here are the basic tools to create what you want.

Notes
  • The wiki is very Case Sensitive, keep that in mind when inserting images or links
  • It's alright to create red links, the page or redirect can always be made later
    but sometimes you can avoid them by blending links: [[Rez]]zing becomes Rezzing
