Creating your own page

This page explains how to create an article on Humble Wiki and provides a guide for some things you should know when creating an article.

Before Starting an article
Before starting an article you should


 * Edit some pages on the wiki to get a feel for writing and how things work
 * Test formatting and how it looks in your userpage

You can now begin writing your article.

Presteps

 * Do I have all the information I need, and can it be verified?

Get sources, pictures and quotes in order to make the article interesting to read and filled with information. These should all be verifiable.


 * Is my article within the rules?

Simple rules are not to create an article which is from your own point of view, mocking or offensive. This is to avoid future complications. Writing from a neutral standpoint will allow people to look up articles on the wiki which might be from an old world, and not mistake it for a current one. It avoids confusion as well. Mocking or offensive articles (Or Parodies) cannot be used as the Humble Wiki needs to maintain an image of all information being true and not false.


 * Have I gone over what my page needs?

If your page is, as an example, a town page. You will need to input all the information the template gives you, or else its an incomplete article and will not be able to put onto the servers overview. This is too avoid quick, five second pages which would take no time at all to complete simply to have a mark on the overview.

Writing the article

 * Can my article be read easy, and does it have good grammar?

If people are unable to read your article, then its useless. Read other articles and see how they have organized themselves and try to do the same with your article.


 * Is my formatting good?

Formatting is when you are editing in the editor. If it is unreadable in there then it will make it harder to edit and more annoying. Keeping your article simple and organized inside the editor will make the article even better.


 * Does my article make sence from others point of view?

When writing your article, talk to other people for ideas and allow them to proofread in order to make sure the article makes sence and is legible to others. If you don't have friends, just try to look at it from others point of view.
