Contributing to the wiki

Hi Uaq, thanks for joining the wiki and submitting edits to a few games. Unfortunately I was not able to accept any of your changes as they drastically deviated from our guidelines. I will try to list them out for you so that you can avoid repeating these mistakes.

  1. Firstly, please read the Wiki conventions page before posting. To create a new game page, you must first create a blank game page with only the phrase {{subst:newgame}}. This will autopopulate all necessary parameters to be filled. Then you can edit the page again and fill in the appropriate details for each item. Please note that we have a moderation queue set and the game page creation request has to be approved by a moderator before you can fill any details. Do not try to manually copy the structure in and create a page in a single edit.
  2. Secondly, do not add unnecessary tables such as names of testers and contributors. If we require to capture such data, it will be done automatically from our forums. Trying to copy these information here is a pointless effort. As and when we decide to capture more information in the wiki, we will create appropriate templates and guides on how to easily contribute to the same.
  3. Lastly, please do not make unnecessary edits to the Main page. We try to keep this wiki as open as possible but edits to critical pages such as the Main page or templates are generally not accepted (unless absolutely necessary).

I have fixed the errors you made in 3 game pages. You can view the Edit history for these pages and use them as a reference to correctly contribute to the wiki: Sonic Adventure 2, Mini Ninjas and Flashback. --HerrHulaHoop (talk) 19:41, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
