Wiki Rules And FAQ

## General Rules

Don't be a dick, don't edit pages that aren't yours.

## FAQ

* **Can I make a page for my character?**

Yes! If your character has been approved, once they reach level 5 you may make and maintain your own page.

* **How do I make my own character page?**

It's actually really simple, please check out the How To guides at the bottom of this page.

* **Why would I make my own character page, what is the point of this wiki at all?**

If you're here, I am assuming you know that the Bloodlands is a Living World campaign run out of a discord server for the roleplaying game. The campaign has gone through a lot of changes of location and a whole swathe of interesting characters and interactions that have ultimately been lost to time. So, starting with the conception of the Third Reign on the server this wiki is going to be (hopefully) be maintained and added to so that we on the server can keep an easily regaled living history of the game. Regardless of the future oncoming. Plus Wiki diving is fun and people might get a kick out of checking this place out before deciding to join or not.

* **Can I make a locations page?**

Player characters have the possibility of purchasing their own plot of lands, if you own your own plot of land and wish to make a locations page for it, go for it. Otherwise please avoid attempting to add points to the map.

* **There is a pictures section in the Characters Infobox, does it have to be original art?**

In an ideal world, everyone would have lovingly crafted renderings of their original character, but sadly this is often not the case. Feel free to use other material to represent your character, the only thing we ask is that you avoid material that is NSFW, and additional imagery fitting within 'big-tiddie-anime-girl' tropes... you can find something better and we know it.

* **Can I, as a joke, edit someone elses wiki page just to add a funny little detail. It'll be funny and harmless!**

This is not funny, don't do this, it's not original or clever.

## **How To Do**

Feel free to take a look at this character page template for descriptions.
* Go up to the top right of this wikipedia
* Find the button that represents "Make New Page"
* Click it, it will open up a dialogue, here is where you will enter the full name of your Character
* Upon hitting submit you will be taken to a fresh, blank page for your very own character, this page can now be referenced anywhere on the wiki.
* In the formatting options above the main text box, click Insert and then click Info box
* Then click Character Infobox, and fill it in as you see fit for your character
* Finally, add headers to your page for the following categories
* Description, History, Abilities, Relations, Trivia
 **How To Reference/Link to Other Wiki Pages on this Wiki**
So let's say you have your character page all written up and you want to write some fun little interactions you've had with other characters for posterity and reference their character pages as well. So that people reading it can follow it through to their page?
* In the formatting options above the main text box, find the chain icon- this is representative of links
* Highlight the section of text you want to link back to the other page, and then click the chain
* A new dialogue box will pop up with the highlighted text in it.
* Ensure that the text within that box is exactly the same as the **Title** of the wiki page you are looking to reference, if the title of the page is **Nate** and you within this text box is written as **nate** then the link will not work properly.
* Editing the text in this new dialogue box **will not** change the text in the wiki page itself, it simply needs to search the wiki for the exact page that already exists. The more you do this the easier it will get.
