How to make a good page

**This page is a Work-In-Progress**

Making a good page is important for the wiki to grow. If you went to a wiki, and you wanted to learn about a topic, and you saw the page looked disgusting, you probably won't want to use the wiki as a reference to other topics.

## Prerequisites

Before you start learning how to make a good page, view Help:Editing and the help pages included within about the source editor and the visual editor.

If you want to make pages look really good, you need to be familiar to HTML and CSS, as many things in wiki text are based on HTML. Unless you are Sysop (administrator) you cannot edit global CSS for the wiki but you can add style tags (<style> or <div style = "Some CSS">) to edit the CSS of the page. Custom JavaScript is not currently enabled on the wiki, and we don't need it currently. Also check the page Help:Wikitext to learn about how to use wikitext. You cannot use <a> tags or <image> tags in Fandom, so you will need to learn how to use those instead of HTML. Remember, learning this is not required if you want to use the visual editor, but if you want to make a really good looking page, you should learn a little of these. Khan Academy and w3 schools are both free, and really good places to learn HTML and CSS.

## Requirements for a good page

A good page requires these things:

* An image, if possible
* A good amount of content, not just one sentence
* Correct capitalization, punctuation, spelling and grammar. Don't know these? Khan academy has a large section about all of these (except spelling)
* Good organization. Make sure all parts of the page are organized together, and also make separate paragraphs. It looks much nicer to have multiple paragraphs than one very large piece of text, even though they are the same.
* Make sure the text makes sense! Read it over, carefully. Some parts may not look odd, but then when you read it carefully, it sounds really odd.
* Add an infobox. There are multiple infoboxes the admins have created. See the section "Infobox" to see how to make one.

## Infobox

You may have seen infoboxes before. On pages like Chemist or Mini Turret have an infobox on the side. It has information about health, damage, and sell price. It looks really nice and it is very helpful.

### List of infoboxes

* The EnemyInfo infobox is used for all mobs, not just enemies. It has information about health, damage, drops, and more.
* The WeaponInfo is used for weapons. It has information such as damage.
* The PlacebleEmTemplate is used for placeable items. It shows information such as health, damage, and sell price.
* The Item template is used for other items, it shows things such as sell price
* The info needed infobox allows you to put what is needed for an incomplete or a work-in-progress page. Jmooroof will eventually create a better-looking template that looks better than the info needed

### Adding images to infoboxes (visual editor)

Before the UCP update for fandom, adding images was very easy and convenient. Here are the new steps:

1. Go to Special:Upload and upload a picture. Make sure you name the picture the correct name.
2. Put Fair Use in the copyright options because the wiki is using the pictures in a fair way, and we do not know if the pictures are in the public domain. **Only put "public domain" if you get permission from whoever created the image, or the picture/website says it is the public domain. If you own the image, you need to put that it is public domain, or if you put a copyright on it, that you gave permission for the wiki the use the picture.**
3. Put a short summary about the picture. You can just say, "A chemist" in the summary.
4. You will see a page that looks like the image below.Make sure everything is correct.
5. Put a category for the image. Make sure you put the correct one!
6. Copy the File:ImageName (look at the example)
7. Go to the infobox and paste the text you copied to where it says "Image"
