Best practice for creating new pages is to edit and existing relevant page, and create a link from there to the new page. For example, if I wanted to write about an event on the server, I would start by going to the page of someone involved in the event and add a brief mention about their participation in the event and create a link to the event page there. From there you can edit the event page. Otherwise, use the address bar and navigate to the name you want the page to have, using underscores ( _ ) instead of spaces. For example, if you wanted to write about a cactus farm, you would navigate to <code><nowiki>https://wiki.tntable.ca/index.php/Cactus_Farm</nowiki></code> and click the "Create Page" link.

This wiki covers anything and everything related to the TNTable community and server.


My only advice is just write. You can start the page and leave it blank and come back to it later or have more people fill it in. That is where the linking to other pages is very important. The more eyes there are on your page the more edits and information it is going to have.
The most common links you need will be in the sidebar, for example [[Current Server|the current server's page]], as well as information about our [[Advancements|custom advancements]], and [[Crafting Recipes|custom crafting recipes]] all added with datapacks.

About TNTable

The Nerd Table began in 2011 when we needed a Minecraft server for a school project. It has since grown into a gaming community with a Minecraft SMP server, a community developed UHC server, and other game servers by request.

A Brief History

In 2011 we needed a server to create a short film in Minecraft. The project was a hit amongst ourselves and teachers, so we continued to use Minecraft for projects when we could. Michael (88were) had dubbed the group “The Nerd Table” or TNTable for short, and the name stuck. The server became available 24/7 in 2012 when I acquired an old Compaq desktop, featuring a whopping 4GB of DDR2 RAM, and an 80GB IDE drive. We have run many different servers through the years such as modded, and a vanilla team death match server. However we always come back to vanilla SMP, and have had an SMP server running through all the Minecraft versions since 2013.

Contributing

Everyone is encouraged to contribute to the wiki however they can, whether it be through edits or creating new pages. Add anything you wish, the goal is to create a substantial wiki with content solely from the servers.

Here is our contribution guide so you can orient yourself and begin adding your knowledge and lore to the wiki. It is also in the sidebar.

TLDR: Just write, even if you just start pages and leave it blank. Others will come in and fill in information, or you can go back and fill it in yourself. Just be sure to link to it from as many pages as are relevant.

If you are looking for inspiration, there are Wanted Pages and Short Pages links in the side bar.
