Difference between revisions of "Category:Wiki Contributors"

If you plan to edit the wiki add yourself to this page so we can know who is interested in contributing. Also, if you are contributing to a specific part of the wiki, post it in your talk, or edit this page saying so. This will help future contributors. The wiki will keep track of your work so you can revert to a previous revision if you mess up, don't be afraid to try.

To get access to editing you first have to create an account on the forums and be a member of the Secret Preorder Forums

Whaleman thanks you!

Please Read

• When in doubt reuse a category, don't create your own.

• When in doubt add to a page, don't create a new one.

• When uploading photos to the wiki make sure that the file name is unique and explains the photo a little bit. Please be sure and include a description but don't over use categories. Here are the categories you should use for art:

All art that is reposted/posted MUST have permission from it's creator. fan art thread

Please try and fill out the summary with some basic information about your art pieces. Here are the list of Categories that should go first (choose only one):

• Fan Art (if you took an artistic screenshot label it as fan art)
• Fan Music
• Fan Videos
• Icons
  • Headers
• Screen Shots must have either a Tutorials (only if the picture has directions in it) or Modding category together with another category for the content of the picture ie Overgrowth, Lugaru, Photoshop, Blender

  . There is no need to include artsy screen shots either from Wolfire or one you took (and possibly enhanced) yourself. Place those instead into Wolfire Art or Fan Art with the game tagged.
• Textures (make sure to fill in the summary if you don't plan on writing an article explaining your texture)
• Wolfire Art (if it's part of a specific Wolfire universe add that after (ie Lugaru, GL Fighters, Overgrowth)
• Wolfire Music
• Wolfire Videos

After those three steps comes the last step, going over to either the concept art template or polished art template and adding a link to your photo there.

To include a file in a page, use a link in one of the following forms:

• [[Image:File.jpg]] to use the full version of the file
• [[Image:File.png|200px|thumb|left|alt text]] to use a 200 pixel wide rendition in a box in the left margin with 'alt text' as description
• [[Media:File.ogg]] for directly linking to the file without displaying the file

ps If you don't know how to help, look at the wiki editing standards, mess around for a few hours, but be mindful of the category system. also If you think the category system stinks say so, but post what should change before changing everything, I put some effort into how the categories should tunnel down - conner36
