  • Recent Changes will let you see others' contributions as they happen.
    • To make Recent Changes more useful for all users, remember to provide an edit summary in the "Summary" field before you save your changes.
    • You can set the wiki to prompt you for a summary in your preferences.
  • When posting on an article's Talk page you should add four tilde symbols or ~~~~ onto the end.
    • This will add a signature and timestamp to your comment so others can easily tell who posted it.
    • Any new sections on an article's Talk page should be added to the bottom of the page and not to the top.
    • When editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
    • You can use the Signature Icon.png button in the editing toolbar to quickly add a signature.

Disambiguation pages

Hi there,

When you replace the {{item link}} template with the {{De}} template, sometimes an error may show up for some item icons. This can be fixed by resizing the icon by typing {{De}}, because the default size is 64px it's scaled down by 1 to make it as accurate as possible.

Also keep in mind, some disambiguations don't automatically have an item icon, it's okay to leave these disambiguations out of converting entirely. A discussion can be started on the talk page for an appropriate image replacement.

Categories and licenses

Hi there,

When uploading files, please remember to add the appropriate licenses and categories. If you struggle with adding either of these, try looking for similar files and see what they have added.

Note that this is not optional. It's required that images have both, any future images without either will be deleted.

Platform of the video you provided in recent edit

Hi there! Missing boi
I have noticed that one of your recent edit on Embargo page provided a video link on discord, I have to remind you that it is best to use youtube/archive link and avoid discord/imgur, because the files might not last long enough for a wiki's need (at least this is the reason I heard of)

On top of Discord links requiring an account on Discord to view, they also have a tendency to expire outside of Discord itself. If just viewed on the Wiki, a link like this immediately downloads a video (titled "Nuts.mp4", not exactly a great title), which is not something we want for users.
