Portal Contents

First Time User?

The T2T Wiki is a collaborative effort but it does not mean that it has to be anarchic, so please read a bit the documentation and look how pages are made before starting adding things randomly.

  • Before you are allowed to add or edit any articles, you must create an account first.
  • Read through the Wiki Cheatsheet for quick editing info.
  • Practice a bit in the Sandbox!
  • Consult the Meta Help Files for how to make and edit pages.
  • Consult the Forbidden page to see what you should NOT add to the Wiki.
  • Sign your posts on Talk pages (such as the Discussion page, tab above) by clicking the "Your signature with timestamp" button available in the text editor toolbar or by entering four tildes ("~~~~").
  • Basic format can be found on most of the newer pages - note articles like Quests, Dunlending (race), and Lothlorien .
  • If you create a bunch of links to pages that don't exist yet, it would be polite of you to create at least some of those.

The To-Do List

  • We need a better "Help" page!
  • All these pages need to be created: Wanted
    • The majority of wanted pages are for Places.
    • There are also plenty of pages not listed on the Wanted pages that need to be created.
  • Most of the Items that were on the Wanted page are now created, but they lack content. The "spoilers" pages for these items (as well as spells) were also created, and need to be populated with appropriate questinfo.
  • Pages needing content need to be marked with the appropriate templates.
  • Pages with the "Description Needed" and "Needs Content" tags should be finished.

Standards for T2TWiki

  • Use appropriate tags on new page names - (ability), (skill), (race), and so on.
  • If you need to communicate with another user, add a note on their talk page.
  • Roleplaying is just as important as the more "hardcoded" facets of the MUD. Please take time to make thematic descriptions and tips as well as the less thematic kinds.
  • Feel free to upload images, but don't overuse them. Also, though we won't be patrolling as heavily as Wikipedia does, please try to be conscious of copyrighted images.
  • Don't orphan pages. Always add a "Related Pages" area to the bottom of every page whenever possible, and link it to those pages.
  • Limit use of player names, since these are often intangible and hard to patrol after a while.
