Contributing to the wiki

There are many ways in which you can help. Don't be afraid to edit and create articles!

Improving existing articles

Adding missing stuff to navboxes/lists

• Most content should be listed on the wiki, but if you see something missing, please add it!
• Navboxes can be edited via the v-d-e links in their upper left corner.

Feats

• All feats up to 0.1.14.2 are in the wiki and up-to-date.

Items

• Check components with example stats and fill in the stat ranges.
  • ALL dynamic components need at least updating for 0.1.14 changes

Quests

• Detail pages; write walkthroughs, etc.
• All quests up to 0.1.12.2 should be listed.

Characters, Enemies

• Detail pages; add any missing data to infoboxes.

Locations

• Detail pages; most have short sections or are stubs/redirects.

Psi abilities, Abilities, Status effects

• Detail pages; most are stubs and missing some important details.
• Ability pages need infoboxes

Factions

• Detail pages; these are really lacking in story details.

Skills

• Many of the pages for individual skills have lists that need expansion

Creating new pages

Check out the wanted pages for a list of frequently linked-to pages that don't yet exist. Feel free to create any of them!

Quests

Add any missing quests!

• Check out the quest infobox
• Existing quest pages can be used as references
• Also add it to the relevant navbox

Items

Want to add missing item pages to the wiki?

• item infobox and how to use it
• or use existing item pages for references
• Also add any additions to relevant item navboxes.
• Category:Item icons for a list of already uploaded item icons.
• Template:ComponentGroup will also be helpful if you're working with blueprint pages

Abilities

Want to add the missing abilities like psi powers to the wiki?

• ability infobox and how to use it
• or use the existing ability pages (e.g. Stealth Mode or Telekinetic Punch) for reference
• Feat abilities should go to relevant feat page; no need for two pages and disambig.
• There's no navbox for abilities yet. Might consider creating one if necessary.

Characters, Enemies

Wanna add these to the wiki?

• character infobox template and all its parameters
• existing pages can be used as references, though most are stubs
• navboxes: NPCs and enemies

Locations

All location-related stuff is very much WIP due to the game content also being unfinished.

• There's the location infobox and navbox
• Zones lists every map file and its article
  • Every zone should have its own detailed article later on, for now locations only have larger common pages

Status effects

Want to add the missing abilities like psi powers to the wiki?

• ability infobox is also used for status effects
• You can use existing status effect pages for reference
• Status effects should be added to relevant main article when they share name (e.g. Irongut medicine item and status effect)

Uploading images

See File:Misc icon.png#filelinks for pages that still lack images

Screenshots and editing!

• Icons should be 33x33 PNG with transparent background
• NPC/mob models should be roughly 100x100px or a bit larger
  • Unique NPCs can use cropped screenshots to illustrate their surroundings
  • Generic NPCs and mobs are better off with transparent background
• Quests infobox supports 300x200 images, can be a key event or point of interest in the quest
• Every area should have a map image, preferably transparent, fully explored and without visible NPCs
  • Almost all areas up to 0.1.14.2 have map images (most gauntlet maps are missing)

Image categories

• Check Category:Item icons for already uploaded item icons
• Category:Feat icons for feat icons
• Category:Icons for all other icons (menus, abilities, status effects, etc)
• Category:Maps for area maps
• Category:Portraits for NPC portraits
• Category:In-game models for in-game models of NPCs/mobs
• Category:Quest images for quest infobox images

Quality assurance

The usual wiki cleanup stuff.

• Tag dubious information with {{verify}} or help verify information in existing articles.
• Tag outdated articles with {{outdated}} or help update any outdated articles.
• Tag short articles with {{stub}} or help expand some article stubs.
• Single sections in need of expansion can be marked with {{expand section}} or you can help with articles that need expansion.
• Mark pages for deletion with {{delete}} or help improve some candidates for deletion.
• Check article content for typos and/or bad grammar. Any typos present in the game need not be reproduced in the wiki, instead report them here
• Improve syntax/formatting as you see fit.
• Add pages to correct categories by adding [[Category:Category's name]] on the page.
• Check for any internal links to disambiguation pages and fix them.
• Create some links on dead end pages and create links to some orphaned pages.
• Fix any double redirects by redirecting the first page to the third page. Also check for broken redirects and fix them.

Want to discuss stuff?

• If you want to discuss anything specific to an article, you can use the talk page for that article.
• Also check the wiki thread on forums!
