Question: Editting Wiki
« on: December 22, 2011, 12:08:25 am »

Hello wasteland, I realize this question may come off rather stupid.. but I am interested in contributing to the Fallout wiki in any way I can.  I've made an account, but can't for the life of me, figure out how to add pages.

Specifically I'm looking to add a page for the Lost Children to the faction page.

Could someone give me a quick run-through of how to create or edit pages?

I'd like to give back to the wasteland in other ways than free items and hunts.


Thankyou in advance: Lost Children

Please disregard this post, I realize I must talk to GM's or admins in the IRC to gain author rights. Sorry for spamming up the forum.

Did you get this yet? I heard that player factions will no longer have their own pages after wipe.

What!? WHY!? That makes absolutely no sense. Player-driven factions that are influential in the wasteland SHOULD have the wiki to advertise their work.

To be honest, the Player-driven faction page should REALLY be the biggest and MOST in depth page on the wiki.

If this is true, consider me, highly upset... Not a deal breaker of course... but I don't see any valid reason for this. (Other than vandalism, but thats something that can easily be taken care of I think)

Sorry TLC, but don't get upset just because i heard it. It may not be true, and i don't recall my source. I do recall being impressed by the source and i, like you, would be disappointed if the player faction pages were retired.

I don't see why wiki categories should be removed after an in-game wipe leaving these categories unchanged :) I'd not worry too much about that, but, of course, I might be mistaking.
