Help posting article to wiki

by cessna151 » Mon Oct 12, 2015 15:21

When i first started playing Minetest I found it difficult and VERY time consuming to find information about the advanced features of Minetest, but i eventually did. (e.g. server commands, privs, etc...) To eliminate this problem i decided to write an "Advanced Beginners Guide" which i have just completed, to be posted on the Minetest wiki. I don't know anything about wiki editing so i'm hoping somebody good at wiki editing will volunteer to post it for me.

Anyone willing?

You will need a wiki account if you don't already have one.

To create new pages, enter the desired title in the search box. If there's no page by that name, it will have a link "Create the page "foo bar" on this wiki!". Click that one, then copy & paste the document there. Don't worry about formatting issues; other users can fix them for you if you don't know how (but we advise to learn wiki markup, at least basics like headers, lists, and styles, since it may come in handy).

Alternatively, you may also post the document as an attachment here on this topic, and somebody will create the page for you.

For some unknown reason i was under the impression wiki editing was complicated. But after reviewing the wiki markup page it seems fairly simple so i'll give it a try when i get my wiki account.

there should be some button which adds <br/> on every single line break if it's not there yet
