==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.

Most importantly don't let the wiki editing get into ==First Steps==1. After you create your enjoyment of account and login for the game! Set some first time aside to wind down , setup your personal '''User''' and just play''' User talk''' pages. One way I do it is to take captures with [http://www.fraps.com/ FRAPS] Click on your username and review them later "Talk" in [http://www.xnview.com/en/ XnView]. [http://capture2text.sourceforge.net/ Capture2Text] is very handy to grab text from an image and put it into the clipboard upper right corner (saves typingdesktop view)to create those pages. Even if you leave them blank, their existence makes it easier for other users to contact you with questions or to request collaboration on a larger project.

==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.

Ideally3. Next, replies it will be helpful to someone in any Talk Page should generate a notification, however it may not work on this familiarize yourself with some of the information to the right. This wiki yet (weuses the '''ll have MediaWiki''' platform. If you are new to ask devs to add required extensions). Either wayMediaWiki, structuring talk pages is very helpfulsome Help articles can be found on the sidebar.

==Where 4. When creating pages, we would like to Help==maintain some semblance between similar pages. You can check out the [[Project Gorgon Wiki:Formatting|formatting guidelines]] page for 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 This page may be outdated, however a '''Article guide pages''' section contains a list of very useful templates that most new pages are built to follow.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 following areas best method is to find a similar page, and check the formatting of that page and the wiki need template the most help:page is based on.

<div style="background:#f8f8e8;border:1px solid #ccc;padding:5px;">; Pages that need fleshing out: 5. You may want to join a [[OritaniaDiscord]] server to communicate with other Gorgon wiki editors.* Wiki-themed channels can be found in both '''Project: Gorgon (almost emptyOfficial) - [[Under the Hand]] - [[Wolf Cave]]''' and '''The Gorgon's Head Discord'''* Large group editing projects are usually organized through Discord.

; Pages with existing but incomplete tables5. 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.: [[Gems]] * If you intend to make change that will impact many pages (complete rewriting a template, changing the tablelayout of something), it is best to check with an experienced editor first!: [[Teleportation]] recipes: [[Surveying]] (list * Occasionally a new user will start a project, such as rewriting the ''Locations'' section of the ''Creature Template'', before realizing part of maps and what gems the way through that they lead 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!

* 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 foesthe in-game map, special foes, 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]]).; High level ZonesGameplay* Content:: '''Sun Vale''' NPCs, foes, landmarks (during alpha some abilities may move from one vendor to another, but those edits will not Pretty much all gameplay/mechanics articles should be lost, just moved to other articles as the game updates)expanded upon. ; Missing imagesWanted Pages: Look * The Project Gorgon wiki automatically generates a list of pages it believes to be "wanted" at [[Special:WantedFilesWantedPages]]. Red links are usually While this list can be helpful at identifying actually missing imagespages, the inclusion of something on this list does not guarantee that a page is necessary. Click :*Items are added to the "(1 Wanted Pages list when a broken link)" next to is created on another content page. Sometimes the red linkis created from a misspelled word! If so, click fix the spelling mistake and do not create a page listed belowfor 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, then from please create it if you are able to submit the proper content for that page click . If a Quest appears on the image link Wanted Pages list and you are not proficient at adding quest pages, it would be better to leave the page in the article list than to add create a picture. Try half-correct page!; Mark pages for Deletion* If you come across an irrelevant or duplicate page and want to optimize pictures a little bit in Photoshop by using "Save have it deleted, add the code <b><nowiki>[[Category:Candidates for Web" (JPEG)deletion]]</nowiki></b> to the bottom of the page. Size it down to 300 pixels wide to reduce One of the file size, as most articles wiki administrators will display be notified.== Bots==The Project Gorgon Wiki uses a 300px thumbvariety of bots to create or update certain types of pages with content provided by the developers through the public CDN repository for Project: Gorgon.

==Formatting TemplatesSpoilers ==See [[:Category:Template demos]] for Although the Project Gorgon Wiki generally displays a large '''A Note About SPOILERS !''' on the homepage warning users they may find unmarked spoilers, we do use a good overview with examplesspoiler system. For the full list most part, if you are typing up a particular type of page, refer to the template for that type of content to see [[:Category:Formatting templates]]what goes into a spoiler. (NPCs, Dungeons, Skills, Abilities). Many spoiler tags are also used to collapse large lists.

: 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.
