Weclome to the Dungeon Defenders Wikia! The online encyclopedia on everything about Dungeon Defenders! We encourage every one to edit and chip in on this vast Wikia. And we hope that many will do so, but there are a few rules and guidelines we wish you to follow.


Content Management

By adding content to the Wikia you are allowing room for the Wikia community to grow! Adding content is the key focal point to all Wikias, but managing content is also a key part.

Rules

  • Never post any information that is false or that you are not sure about.
  • When adding images please check to see if one already exists.
  • Be respectful when adding textual content to all types of people.
  • Do not recreate a page. To have a page remade simply use the talk page and make a request.
  • The Wikia should be at a level of Dungeon Defenders ESRB rating.
  • Simple and clean articles typically look better. Do not add extra content to just fill in the page.
  • Please refrain from adding or tempering with templates. Templates in the future will be lock by Admin.
  • If you are unsure then do not go through with it. That's the best rule.
  • Do not create pages about un-canonical information that's irrelevant or not officially announced.


Tips

  • Try sticking to only a couple pages and adding information as you learn it. This will help you get familiar with the coding and how things work.
  • Almost every article needs improvement somehow. Sometimes hitting random article isn't a bad way to find something to work on.
  • Infoboxes are and will be your best friend! They create a nice way of displaying information about something.
  • Refrain from using tables as they look bulky and out of place (unless you know your coding).
  • The more you edit the better you will be.


Media

A game like Dungeon Defenders will result in a lot of Media on the Wikia. Try to always look for an image already uploaded before uploading a new one.

Quality

Quality media is important. Only use low quality images if it is the extreme. The preference is the use of higher quality images and video. If you feel you can produce high quality media than do not post any media. Note that taking media of other websites is considered stealing if they are copyrighted. They will be deleted. Also copy and pasting text from other websites can be considered plagirism and illegal. This could lead to banishment.

Where to begin?

Here are a list of things you could work on. As a growing Wikia there is a lot of content that needs to be added and or cleaned up.

Dead-End Pages (Pages with no links in content)

Stubs (Very short pages in need of content)

Stale Pages
