| == How to edit a page ==
| |
| You can edit any page unless they are protected. This can be done by simply clicking on the "edit" tab at the top of the page which brings the editable text (source) of the current page. From there, you can type in the text that you want to add, using wiki markup to format the text and add other elements like images and tables.

| == Creating your first article ==
| |
| Only registered users can create a new article. Before you create one, you might want to try editing existing articles to get a feel for using wiki markup language. Make sure there is not an article with the same title or subject as the one you wish to create and the subject is suitable for the wiki: [[SotA Wiki]] only covers subjects related to [[Shroud of the Avatar]]. If you search for an article that does not exist you can create it by clicking the [[SotAWiki:redlink|redlink]] beside the text: '''Create the page "[[SotAWiki:Broken Link|Searched Term]]" on this wiki!'''.
| |
| | |
| === Title for your new article ===
| |
| SotA Wiki uses title case for article names. When writing a name, use capital first letters for all words except for articles, prepositions, and conjunctions unless one of them is the first word.
| |
| | |
| ==== Examples ====
| |
| | |
| * [[Axe of Prosperity]] (not ''Axe Of Prosperity'', ''Axe of prosperity'' or ''axe of prosperity'')
| |
| * [[Dragon Bug]]
| |
| | |
| === Page layout ===
| |
| Sota Wiki articles generally follow the following structure:
| |
| | |
| {| class="sotawikitable"
| |
| !Introductory sentence:
| |
| |"'''''Kingsport''' is a water front village on the isle of lost Vale.''"
| |
| |-
| |
| !Sections
| |
| |<div style="color: white; background: none; margin: 0; overflow: hidden; padding-top: .5em; padding-bottom: .17em; font-size: 150%; margin-bottom: .6em; border-bottom: 1px solid #aaa; page-break-after: avoid;">History</div><div style="color: white; background: none; margin: 0; overflow: hidden; padding-top: .5em; padding-bottom: .17em; font-size: 150%; margin-bottom: .6em; page-break-after: avoid;">Buildings</div>

| === Sources ===
| |
| :''Main article: [[SotAWiki:Citations]]''
| |
| In general, pieces of information that can be easily verified by logging in [[Shroud of the Avatar]] do not need citations. On the other hand, the technical aspects or the inner mechanics of the game should be properly sourced. Never copy and paste text from another source into an article, SotA Wiki requires all original work to be attributed to the source, or the result is plagiarism.
