Help:Useful Lexicon Tips
All contributors may wish to add useful tips to make contributing and reading the Lexicon easier!
What Links Here
When viewing any page, the toolbox in the sidebar displays the link What Links Here. You'll be able to see every other page that contains a link to that page. This will help to see what plots a character has been mentioned in, or what characters they might be associated with.
Recent Changes
Check out this link in the sidebar to see what others have been writing at the Lexicon.
Use Categories
Each page should be in a category.
Edit Summary
Below the editing window, there's a smaller text window labeled Summary. Take a moment to explain what edit you've made. "Added characters", "Filled in quotes", "Re-organized information." This helps others viewing the Recent Changes to see what you've been up to.
Always Refer to In-Context Examples
If a spell or device is used in a role-play thread, link to and maybe quote the thread where its used! Tie the wiki to the role-play by always bringing in that 'real life' context.
Linking on First Reference Only
It may be helpful to only link things like character names the first time they're mentioned in a section.
