New to wikis?

  • In case you need some help with editing pages, Wikipedia's "How to edit a page" article is a great source of information.
  • Transclusion: Some pages display text from another page by using a special markup to transclude it. Editing the text must be done on the page from which the text is transcluded.
    • For example, when editing the page Character Types you'll see {{:Colonist}} which is markup text that automatically copies text from the page Colonist.
    • To learn more about transclusions, see Wikipedia:Transclusion.


How to help out

  • Recent changes shows the latest page updates in this wiki and clicking on the (diff/hist) is the easiest way to learn common practices.
  • Stub articles, are pages in need of additional content, an easy way to get started.
  • When you get better, check the list of articles intended for rewrite and improve already filled pages that need better "noise-sound" ratio. Friendly readability and concise, structured writing.
  • Another helpful activity is to check wanted pages list, frequently linked-to articles that don't exist yet and can be started from blank free of remarks.
  • Tag maintenance templates Category:Templates or RimWorld Wiki:Templates to pages that you think had been overlooked and need to be polished.
  • Upload and add some images! Visit Special:Upload. Add them [[Category:Images]].
  • Check for spelling and punctuation mistakes/errors.
