Editing Help

Editing the Dargarth wiki can be fun and rewarding, but it might take a little bit to get off the ground your first time. Here's some helpful resources.

Please generally stick to the Wikipedia Manual of Style. If you've ever read wikipedia you have the general idea. An exception to this encyclopedic format are 'Story' articles, which relate a bit of oral history or legend.

Use links liberally. The first time a proper noun is used in an article, turn it into a link. When linking characters, don't link their title, just their name. Titles may change over time, but a character name probably wont.

At some point in time perhaps spells, monsters, weapons, etc will have a place in this wiki. For now though, please try not to include them. A great deal of data on them exists elsewhere, and duplicating it here would be a waste of energies. Please try and write on topics where no records exist. Porting over data from the rulebook means we'll have to update this wiki whenever we change something in the rulebook.

Please don't make up events that can't be reconciled with game history or existing lore. For example: its great to write a fictional history of your country before its in game founding. Its not so great to write about your country's invasions of another country, unless those invasions have happened in game. Another: its great to write about your character's opinion of Count Andor. It's not so great to write about how your character is his long lost brother, unless that's been established with him. Remember, this setting is shared by many people, and Dargarth is world where stories are made collaboratively. Don't create things in your own fiction that can't be reconciled with game events.

Templates

You should apply templates according to what type of article you are creating. To use a template, type {{TEMPLATENAMEHERE}} into the article. Some templates require parameters. For more specific instructions on each template, follow the links below:

• Defunct Country
• Active Country
• Character (used for player characters only)
• NPC
• Organization (a non-country group)
• Location
• Lore
• Incomplete Article
• Needs Updating

Categories

You should also use categories, since they make finding articles easier. Many of the templates automatically add categories. You can also add them manually with <nowiki>
