Contributing Guide

Here at the Amicitia Wiki we welcome any meaningful contributions to our articles, whether it's new information, tidying up presentation, or improving writing.

To get started, you can check out a list of pages that need expanding, pages with outdated information, or non-existent articles linked from other pages. By editing these pages, you'll get the hang of wiki formatting.

Creating a Page
Type the name of the page you would like to create in the URL, replacing the name of the current page. When asked, since the page doesn't exist yet, choose "create this page."

Creating a Page for a Game
Add  to the end of your URL once you are creating the page. This will load a template for you to fill out, which will automatically link the page to the Games category, as well as a category named after the game. You can change the logo image (must be the filename of an image directly uploaded to the wiki), box color, and various info about the game like release date, size, platform and format.

Creating a Page for a Game Archive
Please name this page following the canonical path to the file, including the game name. Example: Persona 4/DATA.CVM for the DATA.CVM file, since it's on the root of Persona 4's disc. Pages for files inside DATA.CVM would look like Persona 4/DATA.CVM/FIELD/PACK and so on.

Also, when creating a page, add  to the end of the URL. This will load a template for you to fill out, which will automatically link the page to the Archives category, as well as a category named after the game. You can change the box color and various info about the archive like size, format and contents.

When linking to such pages from other pages, you can shorten the name (as it appears on the page) by placing  after the full page name and then typing the short name. Example:  will only show up as DATA.CVM but link to Persona 4/DATA.CVM. Pages created using the archive template also shorten the name displayed on the page automatically.
