==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.

==Article Guides (structure and consistency)First Steps==Note that the following are not actual MediWiki templates. They are an example page in which we can discuss what the structure of the articles should look like. These should be used as a guide for creating new articles.

As the Wiki community grows we can discuss the of these articles Setup your personal and talk pages, when you first log in the relevant '', you will see your username and 'Talk Pages'''in the upper right corner click those to create your pages. (Gorgonzola: I'm not 100% sure how notifications workEven if they are blank, this makes it easier for others to contact you. It also the email seems broken)allows for easy collaboration when working on large projects. For now I suggest to watch the templates (click the star icon), so you can keep track of these in your Watchlist?

<DynamicPageList>category = Template guides<Please have a brief read of [http:/DynamicPageList>/www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Talk_pages#Editing_conventions_on_talk_pages MediaWiki Help on Talk Pages]. '''Signatures, indents, and topics''' (headings) in Talk Pages make it easier to see how the discussion is going and who has last replied, not just for the person you respond to, but any future editors who want to get up to date on the history of an article.

==Formatting Templates==For a full list of formatting templatesConsider '''watching''' talk pages (click the star) which you are participating in, see as they will be highlighted in the [[Special:Category:Formatting templatesRecentChanges]]. Below are the most common:

; [[Template:Quote]]: Quote official text (both ingame NPC talk and developer's posts).; [[Template:Hint]]: Hides light spoilers inside a tooltipNext, it will be helpful to familiarize yourself with some of the information to the right. This helps keep wiki uses the layout nice as these fit "inline". Keep these hints short because they appear as a tooltip. You can not use double quotes inside, use single quotes 'like this''MediaWiki''' platform.; [[Template:Spoiler]]: Hide big spoilers in a collapsible block. Unfortunately we If you are new to MediaWiki, some Help articles can not format a table inside those! Consider using lists (bullet lists, definition lists).; [[Template:ItemT]]: This is a fun template that gives be found on the appearance of an in-game item descriptionsidebar. Its goal is to liven up You can edit the pages with some visualswiki if you are logged into forum account. As for all templates, its value is Please click that we can change the appearance later for many pages just by editing the template, so if the in-game appearance changeand create a page about yourself, that is not and a problem. <span style="color:red">Icons are not yet supported</span> until the Wiki has better Extensions installed (a default "empty" icon is used).; [[Template:MOB infobox]]: Create an attractive "info card" for enemies and bosses. This is another way to liven up the pages. The info card does not document everything as Talk Page so that is in the body of the article. <span style="colo:red">TODO</span> More parameters will be added but are limited atm due to lack of proper Wiki Extensionspeople may leave you messages.

==Categories==This section gives an overview of When creating pages, we would like to maintain some semblance between similar pages. You can check out the common categories[[Project Gorgon Wiki:Formatting|formatting guidelines]] page, although partially outdated. The best method is to find a similar page, and see the formatting of that page.

Finally, pick something to add. You can choose from one of the general categories below or anything that you come across that you would like to work on. ==Where to Help==The following areas of the wiki need the most help:; Creature Page Updates: Most Creatures require updates to follow the [[:Category:ZonesCreature Template]]. Combat Abilities, Miscellaneous, and Reported Loot sections need updating!; Missing Images: It would be great to get nice clear images of most creatures and NPCs. It would be preferable that these screenshots be taken on the highest level of graphics. Focus on lower level areas first (Serbule Hills, Serbule, Eltibule, Anagoge). You can look at [[Special:Category:DungeonsWantedFiles]]if you want to. 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 are at least four named bosses missing on the wiki!; NPCs:CategoryMany NPCs are missing their Conversations section.; Skills:Bosses]]Many skills require a few sentences about the skill, and possibly some user comments on mechanics.: The [[:Category:EliteDruid]] (Elite Bosses)skill '''''needs''''' to be expanded on. It is missing most of its core gameplay elements and players '''''need to know''''' all of the unique requirements and cases of the skill. Much needed as it is a popular subject for questions.: [[It would be great to have images for all skills, something that represents the skill.:CategoryIf you have high level play experience:NPCs]]:: [[... overview of pros and cons (good abilities, bad abilities):Category:Serbule NPCs]]... which other skills does it work well with? and why?:Simple lists or tables of level up skills/rewards. <span style="color: [[#F00;font-size:Category:Eltibule NPCs]]1.5em;">*</span>; Dungeons:Many dungeons are sparsely documented, and still require: [[:Category:Kur Mountains NPCs]]Describe Points of Interest in the dungeon:: etc.Any particular general loot , quest loot that drops here?: : Consider adding a few images to highlight the sights in a gallery tag (see [[:Category:SkillsDungeon Template]]); Gameplay:Pretty much all gameplay articles can be expanded upon. ; Missing Pages: Look at [[Special:Category:Beast FormsWantedPages]]to see if you can start on any of the pages. And Be sure that it is not just a misspelled word! Red links on a 'normal' wiki are usually an indicator that something is missing. If that page is relevant and you can expand on that page please do so.; Delete pages:: If you come across an irrelevant or duplicate page and want to have it deleted, add the code <b><nowiki>[[:Category:Combat SkillsCandidates for deletion]]</nowiki></b> to the bottom of the page. One of the wiki administrators will be notified. == Spoilers ==If the information exists, this Wiki should record it somewhere. Now, 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. Some parts of the wiki, such as Lore related pages, contain spoilers, but do not need to be marked as such. Zones, Dungeon pages, Hidden Skill mechanics, and NPCs that have major reveals should use spoilers. ==Sources for the Wiki==Besides in-game content, a list of known sources that can be used to flesh out the wiki: * [http: //www.facebook.com/GorgonMMO Facebook page] and [[http:Category:Other Skills]//www.facebook.com/GorgonMMO/photos_stream photo stream](concepts and 3d renders):: [* [http:Category:Trade Skills]//www.eldergame.com/ eldergame.com]

: 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.
