Getting Started

Welcome to the Stormwind Law Project! This page will serve as a guide for players new or interested in the project.

## Join the Discord

If you've joined the project, you probably want to get in on role-play on the Moon Guard server of World of Warcraft. It is highly encouraged that you join the Stormwind Law Project Discord chat room so that you can get to know its members and keep up to date on events and project announcements.

You can join by clicking the image below!

## Attend Events In-Game

Events are regularly hosted by the Stormwind Law Project in-game on World of Warcraft on the Moon Guard server. Most events occur at 8:00 PM CST, or "Server Time". These events can vary significantly, be they meetings of its House of Nobles, jousting tournaments for the Brotherhood of the Horse, or dungeon-mastered adventures where Stormwind characters have to fight the kingdom's enemies. Attending these in-game events is the best way to get immersed and meet people in the Stormwind Law Project. These events are always advertised ahead of time in the Discord.

## Register Your Character

If you are interested in having your character participate in the governmental aspects of the Stormwind Law Project, you will need to register your character to vote and run for election by making articles on this wiki. These instructions are posted in the Discord.

## Wiki Navigation

The Stormwind Law Project Wiki can easily be navigated by the main menu on the main page:

### Characters • Houses • Holdings • Organizations • Documents • Events
**Getting Started** • Rules • Laws of Stormwind • Places • Items

Articles on this wiki are organized into those main categories. Keep in mind that there are subcategories within those categories! For example, you will find Category:Elwynn Forest Holdings under Category:Holdings.

## User Preferences & Category Display

The ideal way to view the Category pages on this wiki is using the **Classic Categories** option in your User Preferences. The Classic Categories option shows all sub-categories as separate from the articles in a category instead of lumped together in a single list.

## Moon Guard Wiki Tutorials

The Moon Guard Wiki has an excellent series of guides and tutorials on creating wiki articles. While this wiki may not use all of the same naming conventions as the Moon Guard Wiki, the information in the following links is incredibly valuable and helpful.
