Help:Editing

Wikis allow anybody to edit. However, some people may be new to wikis and thus may not know how to edit. Don't panic! This page is for those people. To edit, you don't need to know HTML to edit an article, all you need to know is English and simple wiki code. You don't even have to register to edit!

Getting started
To edit a page, simply click the edit button, which is usually found at the top of the page. Clicking on this button will open the edit box. Once here, simply type in what you want! It's that easy! When you're done typing, click on the save page button at the bottom of the page. However, before doing so, you may want to click on the show preview button to proofread what you typed, you can also include a summary of what you typed to help other editors get an idea of what you did to the article.

Adding Images
To add images, you must first upload it. Once you've done this, you can edit a page and add   to the page. For example, doing   will produce this:

Categories
Categories help organize pages. To add a category, simply type something like this at the bottom of the article:   If you want to add more than one category, simply list them all, like this:     

Redirecting pages
Redirecting pages is useful for sending misspelled pages to the correctly spelled pages. To do this, simply create a page and then type #Redirect page name . For example, typing #REDIRECT Fishing items  on Fish will make that page automatically link to Fishing items. You can also do this by clicking the redirect button on the edit toolbar.

When to use redirects
Redirects can be used for a number of things:
 * Common misspellings (Abbysal whip)
 * Different forms of capitalisation (Rogue's castle)
 * Common shortenings or abbreviations (P pot)
 * Alternative names

When not to use redirects
However, redirects should not be used to redirect one namespace to another; instead, these pages should be moved. For an unclear term with more than one possible meaning, a disambiguation page may be an alternative to a redirect. Don't forget to redirect any mis-spellings of this term to the disambiguation page. The Dragon page is an example, disambiguating the monster, the armour and the hide.

Moving pages
Moving a page will rename it. To do this, click the move button at the top of the page. You must be logged in to move a page. A redirect page will be created automatically, so moving a page does not break links. The page's history and talk will be moved along with it.

Reverting pages
If you see a page messed up, you can simply revert it to a correct previous version. To do this, you:
 * Click on the history tab;
 * Click on the date of the version you want;
 * Click on the edit tab;
 * Save the page. Don't forget to say that you're reverting the page in the summary box!

Testing
If you want to try something out just to see how it looks, you can use the sandbox. The sandbox is just for experimenting, so any changes made to it are temporary.
