| − | For the most part, this wiki is just the same as any other [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki Media Wiki], and so the best place to find general wiki-editing information is [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Editing_pages that site's editing help page].
| + | #REDIRECT [[Help:Contents] |
| − | | + | |
| − | However, this wiki does have some unique enhancements which aren't found in other Media Wikis, and these are detailed below.

| − | = Templates =
| + | |
| − | [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Templates Templates], as a feature, are a standard part of MediaWikis. However, this wiki uses a variety of unique templates designed just for it. For instance, there is a standard template for mob pages ([[Template:Namedmobpage]], two for item pages ([[Template:Itembox]] and [[Template:Itempage]]), etc.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | All of these can be found by [http://wiki.project1999.com/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&search=Template%3A&go=Go searching for "Template:"], or by using one of the template [[Special:SpecialPages]].

| − | = Item Links =
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | When you hover your mouse over many of the item links in this wiki, they "pop up" a summary of that item. For example: {{:Fungus Covered Scale Tunic}}.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | These links can be created the same way as ordinary wiki links, only instead of using "<nowiki>[[</nowiki>" and "<nowiki>]]</nowiki>" to wrap the link, you use "<nowiki>{{:</nowiki>" and "<nowiki>}}</nowiki>".
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | For instance, to generate the Fungi Tunic link you would use the following code:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | <pre>{{:Fungus Covered Scale Tunic}}</pre>

| − | | + | |
| − | Many of the templated pages in this wiki (eg. mob or item pages) can be created, at least initially, as copies of data from the 3rd party site [http://everquest.allakhazam.com/ Allakhazam] and it's [http://lucy.allakhazam.com Lucy Database].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The [[User:Ravhin]] created a [http://wiki.project1999.com/utils/wikiUtils.php utilities page] where users can easily generate new pages in this wiki simply by entering the URL or ID of an equivalent [http://everquest.allakhazam.com/ Allakhazam] page.
