Hello. You can find me ingame as '''Gorgonzola''' ;)
  
I don't like Wikia because it's riddled with ads, and only half the page is actual content. It is cool that they are making Wikimedia more accessible though (with the rich text edit, etc). Hopefully you'll find the '''MediaWiki formatting and editing articles below useful'''.

See [[Project Gorgon Wiki:How to help]] if you'd like to join in! Check out the "MediaWiki Help" articles there if you're new to wiki editing.
  
I hope by improving the Main Page, and adding a bit of structure in these early days of the alpha, that it will encourage other players to expand the content.

Icons and Images

A list of icons and imagesI created to be used in articles, put here so I don't forget about them:

Regarding my edits

  • I use a __NOTOC__ for most pages that I don't expect to be long. People are accustomed to mouse wheels, and the TOC tends to make the top of the article look bad with a lot of white space (a solution would be to float the TOC to the right in some pages, that may be doable with a template). The __NOTOC__ marker can always be removed later if something gets long enough.
  • I've added image tags ( [[File:foo.jpg]] ) to many pages without an actual image. This is a way to keep track of images that can be added later, through Special:WantedFiles. Feel free to go through the list and add missing images!
  • The more templates the better, since they are includes. Templates like "monster stats" can be expanded after alpha, with minimal edits (adding parameters to the templates used in the articles).
  • NPC, Dungeon, Skill and Zone templates are just copy pasterino. They are not actual templates as that would be quite complex to handle (I presume parameters would be too long).
