Creating pages on the wiki can earn any player Karma. However, some types of pages should be linked within other pages, such as linking a character page to the Associates list. This page is meant to serve as a quick reference on how to create each kind of page, and to ensure that when you create a page it is linked in all the right places.

Rule of thumb: Every page should be accessible through the Main Page in two or fewer clicks. If you aren't sure how to achieve this, open a Ticket!

Expedition Logs
