Newbie Notes

Just some tips and pointers for wiki newbies, because this can be a bit complicated at first, but trust me. It's easy after a little bit.

Formatting
Formatting works fairly simply. You cna use the toolbar, just like any forum, but for those who type then things work a bit differently. Instead of the usual [b][/b] formatting, you use commas.

Example:
 * Bold Text uses 3 commas
 * Italic text uses 2 commas

Easy enough.

Now for making headers on pages, you use a similar system with equal signs ( = )

Example:


 * ONE (1) = will equate the largest header size, like so

=test=


 * TWO (2) = will make it a bit smaller, like this

test 2
and so on

Four Equals
Four is the smallest header size you can make.

=Categories=

Categories are easy to mess up, so listen up.

At the bottom of every. single. page you make you have categories, which work like this

Category 

All you have to do is put those four together on one line and you will have your category. Now, Categories are a bit case sensetive, so it's imortant to check other existing articles to make sure your category lines up. I'll list some of the most important that you would place in the  are WITHOUT <> around them, however ALL categories for characters MUST have the "Character" category at the bottom:


 * Character
 * Vizard
 * Shinigami
 *  Division (where  is replaced with a WORD Division number, ie: Ninth, Eleventh, Sixth, etc)
 * Hengeyokai
 * Advent Human
 * Rogue
 * Unseated Officer
 * Seated Officer

These are for characters. The following can be used for locations, like Division ground descriptions. Like the character category, ALL location pages MUST include the "Location" general category:


 * Location
 * Earth
 * Soul Society
 * Rukongai
 * Seireitei
 * Hell
 * Hueco Mundo

=Uploading Pictures=

http://isshindensetsu.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Upload

Once you've uploaded a picture to the wiki, and you want to put it into your page, then all you do is use

image: filename.jpg

For example;

image:K4.png

results in:



Then, if you want to scale it down, you simply make it like so:



and you get:



Playing around with the px number will change around the size of the picture. Just don't make them too big or clutter up your pages with em. It'll look better that way ;)

More may come along in the future, and if you feel the need to make a category for something, feel free to make something that makes sense. Don't make categories for every little thing, however, as they may end up getting deleted if they aren't useful enough.

This page may change in the future if more questions come up. As always, if you need help hit me up at ZechtSparda on AIM.
