Welcome to the True Vanilla wiki! This page explains how to correctly create new pages and avoid common mistakes.
Before you create a page
Before creating a new page, make sure:
- The topic is relevant to the True Vanilla community.
- A similar page does not already exist (use the search bar).
- You are logged into an account (create one here if needed).
Duplicate or unnecessary pages may be deleted.
Creating a new page
The easiest way to create a page is via the search bar at the top right of the wiki.
Steps:
- Enter the page name you want to create.
- If the page does not exist, you will see a message like:
Create the page "PageName" on this wiki! - Click the red link to open the editor.
- Start writing your content.
When naming your page, follow the naming conventions.
Page structure
A basic page should include:
- A short intro explaining what the page is about.
- Clear section headings using
== Heading ==. - Proper formatting (see Help:Formatting).
If the page is incomplete, add {{Stub}} at the very top.
Finishing up
Before saving:
- Click "Show Preview" to check formatting.
- Make sure spelling and formatting look right.
- Add a short edit summary.
Once saved, your page will be live immediately.
