Here it is, the Nexus Wiki. You want to contribute, but don't know how? Don't worry - adding to a Wiki is as easy as writing a forum post. This page is meant to assist you in writing and formatting your Wiki articles as well es editing already existing ones.
 +
 
 +
==Editing an article==
 +
Browse to an article and click the 'Edit' button in the upper left corner of the screen. Apply your changes to the text and click on 'Show preview' to see the results. If you are happy with it, click on 'Save page' and you are done.
 +
 
 +
==Creating a new article==
 +
There are basically two ways to create a new article:
 +
#you follow a red link to a page, that doesn't exist yet and start editing this page
 +
#you append the desired name of the page to the url of this Wiki:
 +
::<pre>http://nexusthegame.net/wiki/<pagename></pre>
 +
Either way, you're going to end up on a page, that isn't registered yet. If you click on the 'Create' button in the top left corner, where the 'Edit' button should be instead, enter some text and save your changes, then you have successfully created a new page. Be sure to place links to this page on other pages to make it easier to find the new page.
 +
 
 +
==Text formatting==
 +
Writing plain text is good, but you can enhance the reader's experience by formatting your text appropiately. Make text '''bold''' to stand out or ''italic'' to emphasize important parts. Use lists and tables to structure the information you're going to present and divide your article into sections to help the reader find, what he or she wants.

Here it is, the Nexus Wiki. You want to contribute, but don't know how? Don't worry - adding to a Wiki is as easy as writing a forum post. This page is meant to assist you in writing and formatting your Wiki articles as well es editing already existing ones.

Editing an article

Browse to an article and click the 'Edit' button in the upper left corner of the screen. Apply your changes to the text and click on 'Show preview' to see the results. If you are happy with it, click on 'Save page' and you are done.

Creating a new article

There are basically two ways to create a new article:

  1. you follow a red link to a page, that doesn't exist yet and start editing this page
  2. you append the desired name of the page to the url of this Wiki: 
http://nexusthegame.net/wiki/<pagename>

Either way, you're going to end up on a page, that isn't registered yet. If you click on the 'Create' button in the top left corner, where the 'Edit' button should be instead, enter some text and save your changes, then you have successfully created a new page. Be sure to place links to this page on other pages to make it easier to find the new page.

Text formatting

Writing plain text is good, but you can enhance the reader's experience by formatting your text appropiately. Make text bold to stand out or italic to emphasize important parts. Use lists and tables to structure the information you're going to present and divide your article into sections to help the reader find, what he or she wants.

Linking to other pages

Of course you can link to other pages on this Wiki and to other websites as well. Linking to a Wiki page, that doesn't exist yet, is perfectly fine, too. This may actually encourage other authors to create that page (or you may go ahead and do that, as well).
