+ | ==Joining the Wiki Team== | ||
+ | You will need an account on the Wiki before you can begin contributing. At the moment only members of the '''[[Krafties Staff]]''' are able to have an account, which is distributed by [[Kris]] (the creator of Krafties). | ||
+ | ===Sandbox/Userpage=== | ||
+ | Every User can create page and content, and sometimes you wish to test out your wiki-coding somewhere before adding to the real content of the wiki. Making your User Page is a good place to create a personal sandbox and introducing yourself. | ||
+ | *Click your '''Username''' at the top, once you've created an account. | ||
+ | *Click '''Create''' to make the User:Username page for yourself. | ||
+ | *Have fun filling it with content | ||
==Creating Content== | ==Creating Content== | ||
− | + | '''Creating Content''' is as easy as searching for it. If you can't find it, feel free to create it, because somebody else will probably search for it too at some point. Can browse the already made pages and categories, or simply use the '''Search''' function. If the search can't find it, it will give you the option of creating the missing page. | |

+ | ==Files== | ||
+ | '''Files''' are images which are used within pages. These image Files can also be added to a category. | ||
+ | ===Upload File=== | ||
+ | #Press '''[[Special:Upload|Upload file]]''' on ''Toolbox'' link list. | ||
+ | #Find your file to upload, and maybe add it to a ''category'' in the summary. | ||
+ | #*If the the file for the very same subject exists, please go to it and '''update''' it. | ||
+ | ===Update File=== | ||
+ | When you are on a File Page, you can '''upload a updated version''' of that image, instead of uploading a new File and naming it nr.2 or something alike. | ||
+ | #Find the File Page among the [[Special:ListFiles|List of Files]] | ||
+ | #Click the '''"Upload a new version of this file"''' which below the File History. | ||
+ | #Find your new File and upload | ||
+ | #*If the file extension is different than the original you will simply have to make a New File since ''.jpg'' cannot be updated with a ''.png'' | ||
