Quick tutorial on editing the wiki:

Full discretion: it has been years since I last used html/css so how I'm going to be teaching this is horrible. I'm sorry. Also this tutorial only applies to people I've allowed to access the actual website's files (thank you neocities).

Okay, first thing you need to do is actually make the page:

  1. Click new file under the home page.
  2. Name it (without the quotes) formatted exactly like "Page_Name.html". For example, the file name for The Wizard is "The_Wizard.html".
  3. In the file, right underneath body, paste this block of code:
  4.         
                <div class="header">
                  <p><a href="/index.html">Main Page</a> &nbsp; &nbsp; <a href="/blog/index.html">Blog</a></p>
                </div>
            
          
  5. Next, on the line below this chunk of code, create the heading using <h1>Page Name</h1>.
  6. On the next line start writing the article using <p></p> tags. The first time the page name comes up, format it using capital letters appropriately and bold it using <strong></strong> tags. Add pronouns after the first time the page name comes up as well, formatted like this: <em>(they/them/he/him/etc/etc2)</em>.
  7. Right now, the code should look something like this:

  8. Now, underneath the title (the <h1> tags), but before the paragraph, insert a line of code and copy and paste this block (I know it looks bad):
  9.         
                <div class="infobox">
                  <div class="infobox_title">
                    <strong>Page Name</strong>
                  </div>
                  <br>
                  <img src="neocities.png" width=300px>
                  <div class="infobox_alt">
                    <br>
                    <p><em><strong>image description</strong></em></p><br>
                  </div>
                  <p class="item_start"><strong>Name: </strong>Page</p>
                  <p class="item"><strong>Age: </strong>1 squilliam</p>
                  <p class="item_end"><strong>Gender: </strong>N/A</p>
                </div>
            
          
  10. Now you need to edit this chunk of code to fit in the information for whatever page you're working on. A quick rundown:
  11. This is what a correctly created infobox looks like in both code and the actual website, respectively:
