| Tips for New Editors
|
- What is this language we use here?
- The code we use is called wiki markup. It is not HTML but under the hood the wiki-engine creates HTML from the markup; see Wiki Markup for more information.
- Lotro-Wiki uses MediaWiki which recognizes wiki-markup, many HTML tags, and CSS.
- Staying Current
- In the left-hand column, the link "Recent discussions" will list any recent change to a talk page. Using that link is an easy way to "stay current". An even better way is to chat with other editors and admins.
- Red links in Preview Mode
- If a link turns out red it indicates an error, usually a typo or "page not found". Something that should be fixed before saving them page. However, when editing in newly added areas we accept red links for pages expected to new added soon; all red links can be found using a link under "Special Pages" in the left-hand column.
- Removing "Stub" Tags
- Some pages have an Article Management Tag, meaning the page needs additional work. When adding the missing information, please remove the tag, which removes the page from e.g. Category:Stubs/Mob or whatever category the page was tagged for.
- Creature vs. Mob
- "Mob" is an enemy inside an instance, while "creature" is any other enemy.
- Kill vs. Defeat
- At Lotro-Wiki we never say "kill" but always say "defeat".
- How to Delete a Page?
- Only Administrators have the ability to delete pages. Instead you can tag a page for deletion by adding
{{Delete Page|<reason>}} at the top of the page. However, we prefer to keep old pages around for reference so we use the {{Obsolete}} tag.
- Similarly, certain information on a page could be useful for future reference. Either hide that info under a collapsed table titled e.g. "obsolete info", or move that info to a section at the bottom of the page, similarly titled, or to a new page with a name indicating the info is old.
- Chat with other editors for advice.
- How to Move (Rename) a Page?
- Only Administrators can move a page, use the {{Move}} tag, and give a reason why.
