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.

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.


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.

This is the TNTable server wiki, it was created to record and document events, lore and anything else work documenting on the TNTable server. Please make an account if you wish to add and edit pages. If you notice any strange accounts or edit behaviour report it to David and those users will be blocked.

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.

The most helpful piece of 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 best practice for creating new pages is to link it out from an existing page. For example, if I wanted to write about the map room on the server, I could start on the Castles & Casinos & Villages page, or on David's page. From there the page can be created. Be sure to find all people and things involved and created and add links between pages whenever you can.

If it is something completely new, you may use the address bar and navigate to the name you want the page to have, using underscores ( _ ) in the place of spaces. For example, if you wanted to write about a cactus farm, you would navigate to https://wiki.tntable.ca/index.php/Cactus_Farm and click the "Create Page" link.

Navigation

The search function will be a good way to get around until the wiki gets more content. Using the Random link in the menu can also give you a sample of what is on here.
