This page will cover the basics of creating a wikipage.

Account Creation

This step assumes you do not already possess an account on the wiki. To create an account, click on the log-in/create account button on the top right of the screen, and then click 'create account'. You'll have to go through a Captcha to prove you're human, but other than that, just fill out the fields below and click the button.

Page Creation

There are two ways to create a wikipage. First, you can take the basic link of www.mysterymeep.net/mw/index.php?title= and toss in your page's name at the end after the equal sign (remember to capitalize both names if it's a character page, or if the page has more than one word as the title). You'll get back a notice that this page doesn't exist; click on 'edit this page' to start your page. You can also click on the 'Create' tab. Alternately, you can enter the title of your page into the search engine and click the red link that comes up.

Using Templates

We have a variety of templates for use on character pages. In most cases, simply copying and pasting the raw template code should be sufficient; for an example of a more complicated template in action, please look at Mitsuru Kirijo's page. If you are having difficulties with any template, please contact a wiki administrator for assistance.

Help, I've Misspelled the Title of My Page/My Character Has Changed Their Name/I'd Like To Create A Redirect

The first two are actually very easy to correct! At the top of every page is a tab with an arrow point down ('V'). Click on that, and you'll see a list of options, among them one called 'Move'. Click on that, and you'll be taken to a page where you will have the option to rename the page. The old page will automatically redirect to the new page.

A redirect means you create a page that you want to make redirect to your other page. For example, let's say you're the player of Dona Kimura and you'd like to make a redirect to your page from Daiya Kagami. What you do is create the Daiya Kagami page, and insert: #REDIRECT [[pagename]].

Pagename in this case would be Dona Kimura. Save the page, and you're done.

I've Created This Page And I Don't Want It Anymore, How Do I Get Rid Of It?

Unfortunately, page deletion can only be handled by wiki admin! If you can't contact an administrator directly, blank your page and add a summary along the lines of 'please delete, no longer needed'. We may contact you to confirm the deletion in some cases.

How Do I...

Create Collapsing Tables?

Use the following code for a collapsing table:

class="collapsible wikitable" style="border:0px solid #000000;-moz-border-radius:0px;background: #ffffff;vertical-align: top;  
border-collapse: collapse" 
!style="-moz-border-radius:0px;text-align: left;background: #hhhhhh; width:1000pt"|I Am A Collapsing Table
|- 
|
I am table contents.
|}

Remember to put {| right before class="collapsible wikitable".

It will look like so:

I Am A Collapsing Table

I am table contents.

For a precollapsed table, replace: class="collapsible wikitable" with: class="collapsible collapsed wikitable". Remember to put {| right before class="collapsible collapsed wikitable".

A collapsed table looks like:
