Here is a link to the Sryth Wiki Editor's Guide.

If you plan to do any edits on the Wiki please read the page so that all the players that do edits will all be doing them the same way.

LOL! You got the jump on me. I was working on a post just now, but I guess I could edit in what I have for it in a bit. :)

Edit: below is the original post I had intended to make.

I've noticed lately that there have been more contributions made to the Wiki by new editors (both named and anonymous). I'd like to thank all the new editors out there for taking the "plunge" and trying their best to make the Wiki a better resource for the community.

To make your contributions as helpful as possible, I strongly recommend all current and potential editors to read The Sryth Wiki Editor's Guide (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Sryth_Wiki_Editors_Guide).

The guide covers some basic do's and don'ts, as well as provides some helpful resources to help you with your editing. Like in any encyclopedic resource, information on the Wiki should be presented in such a way that is as accurate and professional as possible.

Here is also a list of quick links to help you out with your editing:

* Template: Itembox (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Itembox) - used to document items. The preload page is here (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:ItemPreload).
* Template:Questbox (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Questbox) - used to document quest pages. The preload page is here (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:QuestPreload).
* Template:Foe (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Foe) - used to present combat data on enemies (9+ to-hit values, SP, special attacks, etc).
* Template:Inuse (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Inuse) - If you are working on edits to multiple sections on a page, or in the process of a huge expansion, it is useful for avoiding editing conflicts.
* Template:Underconstruction (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Underconstruction) - to alert users that a page is under construction, but is not actively undergoing an edit at the moment.
* Template:TableX (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Template:TableX) - creates a greyscaled table with a set number of columns, and variable rows.
* Sandbox (http://sryth.wikia.com/wiki/Sandbox) - A place where you can test something out before you actually make the edit.

I hope you will find this post useful. If at any time you have any questions, or anything you wish to discuss, don't be afraid to leave a question on a user's talk page or in the forum. People are quick to respond to inquiries, and they generally try to be as helpful as they can.

And for lack of a better place to put or archive this list/link here's a link for Sryth Wiki's editors/local users. This is one of those pages I have a heckuva of a time keeping track of (despite thinking I archived it in a self PM or on my personal page) so this is a good place to archive it for posterity along with the following key words to aid me (or others) in possible future searches.

Wiki editors or users list.
