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.

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).

Internal link
[[Nexus - The Jupiter Incident]]
[[Some page, that doesn't exist yet]]

If you link to a page, that wasn't created yet, the link will be colored red until someone creates this page and fills it with content

Some page, that doesn't exist yet

Named link
[[Nexus - The Jupiter Incident|Best game of the world]]

Instead of showing the name of the page you're linking to, it'll show the name you specified after |

Best game of the world
