Help page for contribution to Mashinky wiki.
THIS PAGE IS UNDER DEVELOPMENT
Before editing, it's good to read the following text. We want the Mashinky Wiki to be an up-to-date and clear source of information about the game and everything around it. Therefore, the following rules must be respected.
The Mashinky Wiki is governed by wiki rules, which means that anyone can edit any unprotected page and instantly improve articles for all readers. Just register.
However, there are pages like the Main Page that are protected from editing. Protected pages have a tab View source instead of Edit. If you need to edit a protected page, please contact one of the Administrators. If you need any other help, contact one of the Editors on their Talk page.

Creating a page
Before creating a page, make sure that the topic is not already in the wiki. The topic can exist under a different name. In addition, the page should be categorized correctly. See also page editing.
Editing a page
Editing most pages is easy. We use the wiki markup (wikitext) to format the text. This is used to tag links, insert images, tables, quotes, etc. The easiest way to use it is to look at an existing page where there is similar content to what you want to create. The pages should look as uniform as possible. In any case, it is necessary to edit the pages so that the encyclopedic style is preserved. The content should give readers insight, be on topic and be without personal opinions. If you use a source of information from a source other than the game itself, it is ideally necessary to list the source of this information so that it is easily traceable and verifiable. It is strongly recommended that you copy the original page code into an external text editor, preferably without formatting - such as Notepad. In case something goes wrong, you can immediately return the original page layout. It is also a good idea to keep your edits up to date. For example, when a browser crashes, it can save you a lot of work when you have secured it.
Minor edits
Marking edits as Minor means that you've only made minor edits on the page. These are changes that do not change the content of the article. It can be grammar repair, changes to text formatting, etc. The editors are aware that this change does not need to be thoroughly controlled. However, these changes are important and valued. They make articles better.
Major edits
All other adjustments, even if it were a single word that changes the meaning of an article, are considered as fundamental modifications. Do not worry about editing, but think well before you make alterations. If there is a discussion about the article, it is good to take into account the opinions of other users and their proposed modifications. Remember that larger adjustments will be reviewed and reflect the current needs of both community and game itself. If you do not respect the above rules, you will increase the chance that your edits will be rejected or redesigned to match the needs of this wiki.
Before you save the page, use Show preview to make sure the page looks exactly the way you want. Fill in a short summary of your editing in the Summary field below the editor. If you have done this, click the Save page button to store the page. Your edits to the page will now be visible for other users.
Přidávání odkazů
Pakliže se zmiňujete o obsahu v jiné části wiki, je dobré na tuto stránku odkázat. Více viz Links and URLs
Přidávání obrázků, videí a zvuků
Pokud již byl soubor na wiki vložen, můžete ho použít pomocí syntaxe: [[File:FILENAME.EXT|thumb|DESCRIPTION]]". ("File:" může být nahrazeno "Image:". Na funkčnost to nemá žádný vliv, jde jen o to, co používáte raději. Nicméně pro obrázky je vhodnější používat Image:).
Přidat obrázek lze na stránce Upload file. Opět, před přidáváním obrázku si ověřte, že obrázek na wiki nevložil již někdo před vámi.
Více viz: Images
Diskusní stránky
Každý článek na Wiki má stránku pro diskuzi, k níž se dostanete kliknutím na kartu Talk nacházející se nad nadpisem. Tam mohou uživatelé diskutovat o vylepšení článku. Pokud provedete změnu, která je vrácena, či změněna někým jiným, diskutujte o změně na stránce pro diskusi! Vždy se dá dojít ke kompromisu. Respektujte názory ostatních, buďte slušní. I ostatní mohou mít pravdu a ne vždy je vaše pravda ta nejlepší. Agresivní chování a přepisování článků proti vůli ostatních nebude tolerováno.
Většina ostatních typů stránek na Wiki má také přidružené diskusní stránky, včetně stránky uživatele. Pokud vás ostatní redaktoři potřebují kontaktovat, obvykle to udělají tím, že zanechají vzkaz na vaší diskusní stránce. Když vám někdo ponechal zprávu, uvidíte upozornění při dalším načtení stránky jakékoliv stránky.
Podepisujte své příspěvky v diskuzích pomocí čtyř tildes (~~~~). Toto vytvoří váš podpis složený z uživatelského jména a časového a datového razítka.
