2b2t Wiki:How to edit/Article creation
| Welcome! | Main Rules | Article Creation | 3 Editing Steps | Text Formatting | Article Structure | Discussions | The end! |
To ensure that a high quality of grammar, fairness and truthfulness is maintained across the website we require that all new articles are first submitted as drafts. Contributors of the 2b2t Wiki can create a draft document as follows:
First, go to your user page (this can be found by clicking on the link containing your name at the top right of this page) and then edit the URL of the page following this template:https://2b2t.miraheze.org/wiki/User:Your Username/Drafts/Name of Draft. Please be aware that draft posts are still visible to all users of the 2b2t Wiki, including the edit history.
After you have finished your draft document, add {{review}} to the very top of the document content. This will add the draft document to a queue of articles requiring review and you will have to wait for a response from a user with the Draft Reviewer permission grant. There are in-depth instructions for this process in the Draft creation guide. If your draft is accepted, your article will appear on the wiki immediately. If your draft requires changes you will receive feedback which will help you to continue working on the draft document.
It may be the case that your draft document is not suitable for publishing on the 2b2t wiki and it may be rejected outright. This can be caused by many reasons, for instance: The document may be too meta (directly involving events occurring on the 2b2t Wiki), the document may describe events which are considered unimpactful or irrelevant to the wider 2b2t community.
Become familiar with the Wiki search
At the top right of the screen is a "Search 2b2t Wiki" input field, in which you can write any word and search the entire Wiki. If no document has been created containing that word in its name, you will see a red link, which when clicked will open an edit window.
In the edit window, you can write the document contents, using a wiki resolution to create the document. When done, click the "Remember" button. The first version of your document is now ready, but if you wish, you can continue to edit the document.
What should I write about?
The 2b2t Minecraft server has been live since 2010 and has a rich and colourful history. New events are always happening, and historical events are always being document. If you're unable to think of a suitable topic for a document, the following is a list of pages which have been linked to by other documents in the Wiki but which do not yet exist:
