How to create/edit articles

(Basic/Fast tutorial)

• If you want create new article, look at another articles for inspiration.

• Use categories! Each article Must be at least in one category.
  • How to add category? Type on bottom of article something like this: [[Category:Quests]]
  • If you dont know where your article become, put it in Category:Categorization requests and someone else will do it.
  • If you put article in 2 or more categories, dont do it when one is another subcategory. For example, dont put articles to Category:Melee weapons and Category:Weapons

• Organize your articles by using titles.
  • Don't use single equaled titles (=Your title=), its top level title reserved for article name!
  • For highest title level use ==Level 1 title in article==
  • For lover level titles use more "=" (===Level 2 title in article===, ====Level 3 title in article====)

• Use button Show preview before you save changes.

Current DiabloWiki Focus

Remember that the Diablo 3 Wiki also needs help.

If you know of any task that needs be done, edit here and add it. Don't remove anything unless you are Leord, Flux, Elly or Rush!

Updating old Content

We really need to go through all old pages and make sure they are up to date, as well as continuing to fill in with the archived content of the old HTML site. As a regular visitor/editor you can read content pages and:

• Add links to other articles that exist (priority).
• Add images to articles with few images.
• Report (preferably on the Community Portal talk page) on areas with poor navigation for us to make navboxes.

Fact Improvement

While this wiki is about the best source of Diablo material on the net, once in a while you may come across a stat or a fact that could be clarified or changed to be correct. You do not need any previous wiki editing skills to help out with this.

Re-Categorise

Much of the Diablo 2 wiki has a working category structure, some of it does not. To fix this you need a lot of wiki experience, and you should be in contact with other editors as well as sysops when helping out.
