- There are about a zillion shipsets out there we'd like to document. Each one will get its own page with picture, flag, and as much information as anyone cares to write. If you've created a shipset, you want people to see it and use it, don't you? Give to the wiki and write it up! Free advertising!
Interesting.

I don't understand how to add something to it. Perhaps better detail in that regard, adding information or submissions, would help?

hehe, if you want to find articles where you can help expand them go here:

SEWiki stubs
http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.php/Category:Stubs

When people create an article and its not finished, most people just put {{stub}} somewhere on the page, and it shows up at this link. It simply means that its a stub that needs expanding.

To start contributing the wiki, its really really simple: create an account here:
http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.p...rnto=Main_Page

and then at ANY page you find yourself reading, simply click on the EDIT tab up top to start editing the article.

To create a new page, first find the page you want it to link from, and edit the page you want to link from and add [[yourlink here]], then save it. When you view teh article, your link will show up as red. Click any red link to create a new page.

Templates have even been setup to make it all painless:
http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.p...icle_Templates

To know how to make good articles with all the fancy shmancy stuff, visit the help link here:
http://wiki.spaceempires.net/index.php/Help:Contents


Thanks for helping! We've got almost a 100 articles now.

AT: Just click "Edit" on any page.

The first time you do so you'll need to sign up (provide username, password & email - don't worry about privacy, Fyron's running things=-)

Clicking edit on a few already-established pages will let you see the markup that is used. It's not much more complicated than creating a post in this forum.

Finally, as for your "I'm dumb" remark. Dude, you are one of the most productive people in this community. No-one can match your shipset output in terms of quality, and only a very few in quality. There's also OutS which deserves its own page. You have plenty to offer, At.
