How to Edit the WIKI
First and foremost, BB Code does not work at this time... the same goes for code tags and spoiler tags. As is now, the Wiki runs off of HTML-esque code
For additional help, consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.
How to add in an Image
To add in an image you must follow these steps:
- 1. Look to the left of the page. On the sidebar, under Toolbox select the link that says "UPLOAD FILE"
- 2. Select Browse and select your image you want to upload... Note that although the maximum file-size is 10000x10000, you will most likely have to resize it before you upload it to fit the screen.
- 3. When you select your file, Copy down the auto-generated text under "Destination filename"... alternative, you may give it it's own filename from that menu.. though be sure the file extension stays at the end. If you want, feel free to add in a description, although it is optional
- 4. Scroll Down and Click Upload
- 5. Create/Edit the article in question. When you are in the article, on your text editor, select the image, or type in: [[File:PASTE DESTINATION FILENAME HERE]]
- 6. Click save and your article will now have an image
Alternate Way
On your article, type in [[File:FILENAME GOES HERE.jpg]] or click the image button at the top of the screen. Once the article is done, select save. Once the article goes back to the view page, Click the red link that was made from the file command. Select the image, make sure that the filename is the same; and hit upload
How to add an info-box
When adding in an infobox, if it is an Infobox for the page, make sure it is the very first thing written in the text editor, put everything under that. If you want to have the Infobox later on in the post, post it where ever you want it to appear on the right. The text to fill the spot beside it will go right underneath it
Copy/Paste the following code into your article http://www.pastebucket.com/2270 If you wish to add in more fields, all you need to do is add in:
|label# = text
|data# = text
under the other |label#, and |data# Fields. Change the # sign to the next number
It is not required for an Infobox to have label/data fields.. it will function fine with just the Name. The same goes for image, an image is not required
Table of Contents

How to fix the Multi-Line Formatting Bug
If you are typing in something that appears on two lines in the editor, but on the article it appears side-by-side you can solve it either:
Simply placing <br> at the end of every line you are having a problem with (except the last one)
Encase each line that is having the problem with <p> </p> Tags
