Attn: New Wiki Editors. Please read this page and all mentioned pages carefully.

  • Before editing pages, look over the make a Wiki page so you understand the wiki's syntax, and as always, for KoL specific items, adventures, monsters, etc., look over the Established Standards and its accompanying discussion.
  • Read over the page on Wiki Oddities, for it explains some of the wiki's issues pertaining to capitalization, sorting, and formatting tag placements.
  • When editing pages always fill in the "Summary" textbox saying what you did, it makes it easier for others to understand and navigate through a pages history.
  • When editing a page, always use the button to preview the page before saving. That way, you have a second chance to look for and fix problems in the page before saving it. This is much better than saving a page multiple times for a few trivial edits in a short period of time.
  • Always sign your comments when posting in talk pages.
  • Mark a page for deletion, or for discussion about being deleted in VKoL:Pages for deletion.
  • Please post in/start a discussion somewhere before initiating large scale changes on your own.
  • Never end a page name with a period!
  • Never put a page which is in the User namespace (starting with "User:") into the Player category!
  • Feel free to test things out in the Sandbox or in your User: page.


How to Post in Discussions/Talk Pages

  • When viewing a particular wiki page, if you would like to view the Talk for that page, click on that page's "Discussion" tab.
  • It is customary to use bullets (* in wiki syntax) and indents (: in wiki syntax) to post in/under an ongoing discussion.
  • Always sign your posts. The second last button on the edit toolbar will automatically add "Your signature with timestamp". It looks like this http://thekolwiki.net/w/skins/common/images/button_sig.png. It will add the following: --~~~~, which after the page is saved will become --WIKIUSERNAME TIME, DATE.
  • You can customize your timestamp in your Preferences by altering the textbox labeled "Your nickname (for signatures):". For more information on how to format the text in that box see this.

Marking Pages as Incomplete

  • Add the following template to add an unfinished/incomplete page to the Needs Work Category, {{rewrite|comment=COMMENT}}, where COMMENT is a short description of what needs to be done.
  • Not marking unfinished/incomplete/nonformatted pages as Needs Work delays their completion, because no one may ever easily notice.
  • Instead of using the general rewrite template, NeedsConfirm, NeedsContent, and NeedsCleanup can be used to provide more specific Needs Work messages. Those three templace act the same as the rewrite template, and also have the "comment" field.

Using the Clan Template

  • Use the following template {{clan|clan=CLAN NAME}}, where CLAN NAME is the name of a clan, spaces are allowed.
