==Talk Pages==2. Please have a brief briefly read of [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages#Editing_conventions_on_talk_pages MediaWiki Help on Talk Pages]. '''Signatures, indents, and topics''' (headings) in on '''User talk''' pages and '''Talk Pages pages''' make it easier to see how the flow of discussion is going and who has last replied, not just for the person you respond to, but any allows future editors who want to get up to date on the history of an articleto quickly do so. * Consider '''watching''' talk pages (click the star) which you are participating in, as they will be highlighted in the [[Special:RecentChanges]]. You can also change your '''Preferences''' if you want to receive alternative notifications for watched pages. * Most users will want to place their personal '''User talk''' and '''User''' pages on their watchlist.

==Formatting==Use existing 4. When creating pages as a guide, and for further details see we would like to maintain some semblance between similar pages. You can check out the [[Project Gorgon Wiki:Formatting|formatting guidelines]] pagefor some advice. This page may be outdated, however a '''Article guide pages''' section contains a list of very useful templates that most new pages are built to follow. The best method is to find a similar page, and check the formatting of that page and the template the page is based on.  5. You may want to join a [[Discord]] server to communicate with other Gorgon wiki editors.* Wiki-themed channels can be found in both '''Project: Gorgon (Official)''' and '''The Gorgon's Head Discord'''* Large group editing projects are usually organized through Discord. 5. Finally, pick something to add. You can choose from one of the general categories below, or focus on contributing to anything that you would like to work on.* If you intend to make change that will impact many pages (rewriting a template, changing the layout of something), it is best to check with an experienced editor first!* Occasionally a new user will start a project, such as rewriting the ''Locations'' section of the ''Creature Template'', before realizing part of the way through that they have over 900 pages to manually change. In this situation, the user should have asked for help completing the project.Many experienced editors are willing to help!

 ; Pages that need fleshing outCreature Page Updates* Style: Most Creatures require updates to follow the [[OritaniaCreature Template]] (almost empty) - [[Under . Most pages have an outdated layout for the Hand]] 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 [[Wolf CaveSpecial: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.; Pages with existing but incomplete tablesNPCs* Style: [[Gems]] (complete Many NPCs are using an outdated layout for their Training section. The proper format can be found on the table): [[TeleportationNPC Template]] recipespage. * Content: [[Surveying]] (list of maps and what gems they lead to) Most NPCs are missing their Conversations section.

* 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. 

* 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.

; Missing images== Spoilers ==: Look at [[Special:WantedFiles]]. Red links are usually missing images. Click Although the "(1 link)" next to Project Gorgon Wiki generally displays a large '''A Note About SPOILERS !''' on the red linkhomepage warning users they may find unmarked spoilers, click we do use a spoiler system. For the most part, if you are typing up a particular type of page listed below, then from refer to the template for that page click the image link in the article type of content to add see what goes into a picturespoiler. Try to optimize pictures a little bit in Photoshop by using "Save for Web" (JPEGNPCs, Dungeons, Skills, Abilities). Size it down Many spoiler tags are also used to 300 pixels wide to reduce the file size, as most articles will display a 300px thumb. Larger images can be used in the Galleries at bottom of dungeon/zone articlescollapse large lists.

; IMPORTANT: <span style="color:#F00;fontOutside of existing template-size:1.5em;">*<defined styles, is hard to provide a Yes/span> Please be aware that Eric (lead dev) has expressed interest No list for what should or should not go in feeding most abilities/recipes into the wiki at some point (probably using the "Semantic" extension and formatting tables with special templates)a spoiler. That means you The location of a dungeon should probably not create any individual pages for recipes or abilities at this point during alpha. Doing so is not terribly useful as the wiki search will find them in relevant lists (NPCs, or Skills pages), and they may be overwritten when this data is fed into the wiki directly from the developer's spreadsheets/databasea spoiler. If you have knowledge of how the dungeon requires a very specific method to automate this kind of thingaccess, please message that information should probably be placed in a spoiler! The [[User talk:GorgonzolaDark Chapel]]in Eltibule is a good example. The ''design'' existence of such tables can be discussed in the [[Skill Template]] pagedungeon is not a spoiler. The puzzle-based method to access the dungeon is a spoiler. Project Gorgon is exploration based, so some spoilers might damage potential discoveries players might make. In general, record everything, but if the topic spoils a riddle, puzzle, or is something extremely hidden, it is best to spoiler tag it.

: 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.
