| | |
| === Read before registering ===
| |
| * You must create an account with the wiki to edit pages.
| |
| * Your account name '''MUST''' be your character's name in ''[http://www.eternal-lands.com Eternal Lands]'', and it must be activated by an el-wiki bureaucrat before you can edit pages. Your account will not be activated if your character's name does not exist in ''Eternal Lands''.
| |
| * You can create an account by clicking "Log in / create account" in the top right corner of any el-wiki page.
| |
| * To have your account activated, you can either contact a user with [[Special:Listusers/bureaucrat|bureaucrat]] rights or send an e-mail to '''techsto[at]planet[dot]nl''' (''please check for notices on the [[Talk:Main Page|Talk page]]'').
| |
| * Currently active bureaucrats are VinoVeritas and Maxine. Send either of them a message in EL, e.g. via Mercator (bot in EL).
| |
| * Please read the [[Help:Editing|editing help]] before making your first edits to the wiki.
| |
| * The most important thing for a wiki are cross-links between pages. If a page is not linked to by any other pages, it effectively doesn't exist, so please add links to all relevant pages.
| |
| * Before adding ''secret information'' from the game, please read the editing help on [[Help:Editing#How to handle secrets|how to handle secrets]] carefully!
| |
| * To add ''secret information'' from the game, you must create a forum account as stated in ''[[Help:Editing#How to handle secrets|How to Handle Secrets]]''. See the [[#Forum access|"forum access"]] section below. Your forum account is separate from your wiki account.
| |
| | |
| ==== Forum access ====
| |
| * Game ''secrets'' and other information, such as most [[Quests]], are not visible unless you have an account on the old [http://smf.el-wiki.net forum].
| |
| * Your account name '''MUST''' be your character's name in ''[http://www.eternal-lands.com Eternal Lands]'', and it must be activated by a forum moderator before you can log in. Your account will not be activated if your character's name does not exist in ''Eternal Lands''. (see [[forum:567]])
| |
| * Your forum account is separate from your wiki account.
| |
| | |
| === Searching the wiki ===
| |
| If your browser supports [http://www.opensearch.org/ OpenSearch] (Firefox and IE do) you can add "Eternal Lands Wiki (en)" as a search engine to your browser and search the wiki using your browser's search box.
| |
| | |
| Your browser should provide an easy way to switch search engines (Firefox has a drop down menu right next to the search input field) and should provide an option to add a new search engine in the same place (again, Firefox does this, if IE is different please add the appropriate information here).
| |
| | |
| === Request for Admins ===
| |
| Wanted: People interested in doing administrative duties on the wiki. Payment - a sense of accomplishing something for the public good. Contact techsto[at]planet[dot]nl via email.
| |
| | |
| Duties include: Verifying that the name registered is a true player of Eternal Lands ([http://game.eternal-lands.com/view_user.php?user= http://game.eternal-lands.com/view_user.php?user=<USERNAME>]) then setting up the privileges (non-el if not an existing character, editor if an existing character).
| |
| | |
| === Issues with the Old Wiki Forum User Interface ===
| |
| The wiki forum layout of the original forum is messed up, but you can log in and then access information, e.g. on quests.
| |
| | |
| Burn has provided a workaround for issues with the wiki forum, see http://www.eternal-lands.com/forum/index.php?/topic/61491-how-to-fix-the-broken-el-wiki-forum/
