Tutorial
Welcome. This page exists to help teach newcomers how to contribute to the Johnisdead Wiki. MediaWiki allows for much more freedom than Fandom. However, with this added freedom comes less structure. It's up to the users to create this structure themselves through templates, CSS, and smart design.
Basic Article Functions
The no-brain basic shit
Editing the Johnisdead Wiki requires an account. The wiki does not support anonymous editing due to vandalism. Once an account has been created, users can begin contributing to the Wiki. In order to edit a page, simply click the "Edit" tab above an article.
To create a new page, type "https://johnisdead.withinhubris.com/" into your address bar followed by whatever you want the article to be titled. If that page does not already exist you will be able to create it yourself.
The tabs above an article also allow you to view/restore previous page versions or move pages to new URLs.
Article Etiquette
More like edit-quette, am I write?
Character, terminology, video, and website articles each have an ideal structure that we should try and adhere to. This will keep our Wiki tidy and the information more digestible. However, what is most important is having this information archived at all. While this etiquette is something to strive for, it should not take first priority. Articles can always be cleaned up at a later date if needed.
The following pages are templates for the ideal structure of various article types:
For more general etiquette that is universal to Wiki articles as a whole, refer to the following:
Linking
The first time the name of another article comes up within a section of a page, it should link to said article.
