Wiki Tips for Contributors

• If you have a question or concern, or there's a uncertainty you'd like to discuss with others, use the Discussion tab on each page.
  • Typing four tildes (this ~~~~) automatically signs your name, makes a link, and timestamps
• next to the "save page" button is a preview button. Please try to use it to avoid spamming Recent Changes.
• Correct spelling gets you points.
• If you're taking information from a source, make sure to link to the source.

Wiki Code Tips

• Use [[Template:FutureContent]] at the top of the page to label it as future content to avoid confusion.
• #REDIRECT[[link]] makes a redirect.
• <nowiki>code</nowiki> removes the wiki code.
• If you don't know how to format something, go to a page that you think is nicely formatted and click on the "edit."
  • Don't change this code, if you want to experiment do it on your userpage.
  • Eyeball the code until you see something that you recognize
  • Copy the code in the same paragraph as the part you recognize
  • Paste it onto the page that you're working on.
  • Replace the text as needed.

Wiki Table Tips

How to make a pretty table that's easy to edit (open up the edit window to see the formatting):

{|class="wikitable" style="background:#ffffff; text-align: center" |- style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" ! Column1 Name !! Column2 Name !! Column3 Name |- | 1a || 2a || 3a |- | 1b || 2b || 3b |}

It looks like this:

Column1 Name	Column2 Name	Column3 Name
1a	2a	3a
1b	2b	3b

And make it sortable:

{|class="wikitable sortable" style="background:#ffffff; text-align: center" |- style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" ! Column1 Name !! Column2 Name !! Column3 Name |- | 1a || 2a || 3a |- | 1b || 2b || 3b |}

Example:

Column1 Name	Column2 Name	Column3 Name
1a	2a	3a
1b	2b	3b

And to remove the special first row formatting:

{|class="wikitable sortable" style="background:#ffffff; text-align: center" |- style="border-bottom:3px solid #CCCCFF" | Column1 Name || Column2 Name || Column3 Name |- | 1a || 2a || 3a |- | 1b || 2b || 3b |}

Example:

Column1 Name	Column2 Name	Column3 Name
1a	2a	3a
1b	2b	3b
