‎ToME Versioning: Works for pages that did not have versioning too

 If you are '''creating a page''', or adding versioning to a page that did not have it, insert a version template at the top of the page:
 * <nowiki>{{subst:version}}</nowiki> for ToME
 If you are '''updating a page''', find the version table (example below) and update it to the current version of the game/dlc.

-Having to write the form <nowiki>[[orcs|orc]]</nowiki> is annoying for both writer and editor. Stick to singulars. If you find a page that already exists as a plural, you may wish to set up a [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Redirects| redirect] from the singular to the plural form. This has a few quirks, so don't do it unless you must.

 With a very few special exceptions, names of pages and new pages should be in the '''singular''' form. Page about Orcs? The page name should be 'Orc'. Page about longswords? The page name should be 'Longsword'.

 Wikimedia is smart enough to take the plural 'orcs' and direct you to the singular 'orc' page. The reverse is not true. If you name your page 'orcs', this is what you have to do:

 NOTE: sometimes, particularly with two word damage types, there are issues if you capitalize the second word, so just leave everything inside the curly brackets lowercase.

 Here are a list of things that you can start doing right away and are super-helpful:
 * Look at the special page [[:Special:WantedPages]]. This page shows a list of pages that don't exist yet, but DO have a link to them. The higher on the list, the more links; these are pages that we really need because there are links from all over to the page! Go ahead and create a page with the best information you have.
 * Keep an eye on [[:Special:RecentChanges]], also found on the sidebar of the wiki under "Recent changes". This will show you who has been working on the wiki, and what they've done; it's a good to know who else is working on the wiki and what they might have taken on as a project.
