==How do I edit?Welcome to the Wiki==This wiki uses Welcome to the '''MediaWiki''' platformProject Gorgon Wiki. If you are new found this page, it probably means you want to MediaWiki, see the Help articles on the sidebarcontribute.
==Where to Help==
The following areas of the wiki need the most help:
; Creature Page Updates
* Style: Most Creatures require updates to follow the [[Creature Template]]. Most pages have an outdated layout for the Miscellaneous section.
* Content: The Reported Loot sections need additional information gathered from in-game!
* Content: Images. Over 500 creatures still require quality, daytime, cropped screenshots to use in their infoboxes. You can find a list of wanted images at [[Special:WantedFiles]], or browse Anatomy category pages. Red links are usually missing images. Click the "(1 link)" next to the red link, click the page listed below, then from that page click the image link in the article to add a picture. Try to optimize pictures a little bit in Photoshop by using "Save for Web" if your version offers it. Size it down to 400 pixels wide to reduce the file size, as most articles will display a 400px thumb.
; Missing Monsters
* There may be missing monsters on the wiki. Usually, these are unique summons by bosses.
; NPCs
* Style: Many NPCs are using an outdated layout for their Training section. The proper format can be found on the [[NPC Template]] page.
* Content: Most NPCs are missing their Conversations section.
; Skills
* Content: Listing of Most skill pages require a few sentences to be written introducing the Advanced Abilities skill, and where they drop or who teaches them (very useful)require elaboration of Mechanics.: If you have high level play experience::: ... overview of pros ** Mechanics for [[Druid]], [[Warden]], [[Priest]], and cons (good abilities, bad abilities):: ... relevant equipment/desirable augments on items (consider adding an example with [[Template:ItemTBeast Forms|Beast Form]]):: ... which other skills does it work well with? and why?: Simple lists or tables of level up need content submitted by players who are proficient in those skills/rewards. <span style="color:#F00;font-size:1.5em;">*</span> ; RecipesContent: Simple lists or tables of recipes. <span style="color:#F00;font-size:1Most skill pages require an image for their infobox.5em;">*</span>. Such lists are useful for the wiki search, even without individual pages, if This is recommended to be a player /wiki "fried banana" ... quality image of something that represents the pages listing the recipe will show up in the resultsskill.
; Dungeons
* Content: Higher level dungeons are poorly documented atmMost dungeon pages require elaboration on Points of Interest. * Content:Most dungeon pages have a sparsely populated Harvestables section.* Content:: Listing Most dungeon pages are missing a screenshot of foes, special foesthe in-game map, and harvestable nodeswithout any labels.* Content:: Describe Points Comments may be added to the introductory section of Interest in a dungeon page, describing why players explore the dungeon:: Add articles for missing bosses:: Any . Are they there to collect any particular general loot , ? Is it usually because of a quest loot that drops here?:* Content: Consider adding a few images screenshots to highlight the sights in a gallery tag (see [[Dungeon Template]]).; Gameplay* Content: Pretty much all gameplay/mechanics articles should be expanded upon. ; Wanted Pages* The Project Gorgon wiki automatically generates a list of pages it believes to be "wanted" at [[Special:WantedPages]]. While this list can be helpful at identifying actually missing pages, the inclusion of something on this list does not guarantee that a page is necessary.:*Items are added to the Wanted Pages list when a broken link is created on another content page. Sometimes the link is created from a misspelled word! If so, fix the spelling mistake and do not create a page for the misspelled word. :*Intentionally deleted categories can sometimes appear on this list. As an example, the Wanted Pages list includes '''Category:Halloween 2017''' as a Wanted Page. This is a category which once existed on the wiki but was consolidated into a different category years ago. It still appears on the Wanted Pages list because of how the wiki system processes subcategories. :*If you believe a page or pages included on the Wanted Pages list should actually be created, please create it if you are able to submit the proper content for that page. If a Quest appears on the Wanted Pages list and you are not proficient at adding quest pages, it would be better to leave the page in the list than to create a half-correct page!; Mark pages for Deletion* If you come across an irrelevant or duplicate page and want to have it deleted, add the code <b><nowiki>[[Category:Candidates for deletion]]</nowiki></b> to the bottom of the page. One of the wiki administrators will be notified.== Bots==The Project Gorgon Wiki uses a variety of bots to create or update certain types of pages with content provided by the developers through the public CDN repository for Project: Gorgon. Users should be aware that some of their edits may be overwritten by a bot when it is activated.
==Sources for the Wiki==
==F.A.Q.==
; Q. This wiki is too light/bright/does not look like a gaming wiki!
: A: This is completely unimportant during the alpha. This wiki is hosted by the developers themselves, on their own domain. This means in due time, they may very well decide to revamp the general appearance to something more exciting. They obviously have more important things to do during alpha. What matters now is providing quality content and help for the players. If you prefer, consider helping out the [http://project-gorgon.wikia.com/wiki/Project_Gorgon_Wiki Project: Gorgon Wikia site] instead.
; Q. The rich text editor is too basic/ the syntax is complicated.
: A: It is. Consider it a new skillset. With that said, keep in mind this is collaborative work. If you don't like formatting things, simply focus on quality content. Someone else who is more into the layout and formatting will simply go over and tidy up things.
